Delphi | Pythia's oracle
10-100 participants
specific destination
2 - 3 hours
About the event
Delphi is probably one of the most mysterious sites on the planet, laden with mysticism & awe. We enhance the energy, putting you into the shoes of archeologists, trying to decipher a long lost Pythia’s oracle…
Beware though: every oracle is vague enough to permit multiple readings- not very helpful when time presses and the rest of the teams seem to get very well along.....
Event details
Split in teams of 4-6 persons each, equipped with a map & a set of riddles, locate the designated spots and decide which is the right answer to the riddle in hand. If you are correct then, piece by piece, you collect all the contemporary letters corresponding to linear B alphabet, the script the oracle is written in.
Which is the team to first reach the finishing point? Which is the team that first deciphers the oracle? And what this last oracle was all about?
Let’s answer these questions…
PS1. A digital version of Pythia's oracle, adds a modern tool to liven things up (@ an extra price)!
PS2. You might find the help of a professional guide really helpful, please ask us for a quote.

Besides being a famous ski destination, Arachova's picturesque landscape, the mountainous traditional architecture and the folk art are really worth to be discovered. Add Arachova’s close distance to Athens to the mix, as well as the the proximity of Delphi historical site and it becomes obvious that this should be your next destination.

Nafplio is considered to be the most scenic place of Greece, the first capital of the newly built state after the Ottoman rule… The story of the place comes into waves (!) culminating with the assassination of Kapodistrias, the first governor of modern Greece.
The content of the testament of this brave man, written in a code devised by “Filiki Etairia”, a secret society of Greek revolutionists back in 1814, is still a well kept secret….
Crack the code and get an alternative glimpse into our modern history!

Vytina is one of the most famous Peloponnese large villages and is the ideal destination for wannabe explorers! Why, I hear you say? Because it is the birthplace of Panagiotis Potagos! Who is this guy, I hear you ask again, and why should I care, anyway? Well, he is one of the most accomplished (but unfortunately the least known) Greek explorers. Despite having no financial support from his homeland, he completed successfully two major missions in Asia and Africa, competing worthily some of the most renowned foreign explorers.
His legacy to all of you fellow explorers is two manuscripts. The second one, containing Kolokotronis' memories about the Greek War of Independence, was found just recently while restoring the local library. Alas, the manuscript is written in code and only the most bold and agile explorers will be able to crack it down!
