WOMEN'S SACRED ROOTS

August 27-Sept. 5th, 2025

After touring the Acropolis Museum and going out on the town in Athens our first night, we will hop on a tour bus in the morning to start our trip with a visit to DELPHI. It is a famous destination and the seat of the most important Greek temple of Apollo. The oracle of Delphi was a priestess known as the Pythia, who was consulted before major undertakings and who delivered prophecies believed to be inspired by Apollo. People from all over the ancient world would come to Delphi to seek her guidance on important matters The sanctuary was also home to the Pythian Games, similar to the Olympics. You can learn more about Delphi and peruse our detailed itinerary by clicking the link below.

This unique journey, designed by Dimitra and Jody, offers an experiential, soul stirring journey of connection and inspiration. Dimitra's presence and incredible storytelling skills, combined with her expert knowledge and guidance will surely bring the essence of the Greek Goddesses alive in us all! This year, we will begin our adventure at Delphi and then continue through Athens and over to the Peloponnes region, filled with many wonders. Let's visit ancient archeological sites including caves, castles, ancient submerged cities and temples to explore the history & beautiful culture, both past and present of Greece.

Sacred Roots Itinerary

International Eressos Women's Festival

Sept 7-14th, 2025

(Lesbian Getaways trip: Sept 5th - 15th or 21st)

I (Jody) will be your host on Lesvos! Not only will I show you around, but I will also introduce you to my friends that are local as well as those that keep coming back, year after year.If you have questions, I'll have the answers or will direct you to the person that does. It really helps to have a point person when you are so far away from home in a fairly remote village with a different language and culture. Our group will meet daily for breakfast and attend festival events together as well as some of our own! I'VE GOT YOU!

2 DAY TRIPS BEFORE THE FESTIVAL!

Our Lesbian Getaways trip starts two days before the actual festival with an overnight ferry ride (in cabins) to Lesvos arriving at 9am. Not only does this give us plenty of time to catch up on sleep, enjoy dinner together and get to know each other, it also gives us a fresh start to visit the local seaside spa and Agiasos, Petra and Molyvos They are three of the other villages on Lesvos along the way to Skala Eressos, home of the festival itself. The second day begins with an important walking tour/orientation to the village and festival followed by the chance to dive in and experience local life in the neighboring villages of Mesotopos and Tavari. Last stop will be the wonderful, lesbian owned Amazones Eco-land retreat center. The night culminates with the festival's opening ceremony which is FABULOUS and not to be missed!

You will stay as busy as you like (or not), choosing between relaxing at the beach or pool or participating in the many classes, workshops, presentations, activities, performances and dances that this exciting, international festival has to offer. Making friends now, with women from all over the world, gives lots of opportunities later for international visits!
