Welcome to Thalassa Journeys: Thematic discoveries beyond the ordinary

Ovid wrote that at the beginning there was Chaos: a raw confused mass, a tangle of discordant atoms. Then the earth split off from the sky and divided from the water. The land of Greece rose from the wine-dark sea. The land flourished, grew creative. Birds took flight from the wetlands; the grapes became wine underfoot; villagers picked olives from peaceful groves.

History began in Greece with Herodotus. Tragedy and comedy, too. And many other concepts and ideas that form our way of life today, including democracy, philosophy, and the study of the natural sciences and music. All this and more has created a foundation linking 4,000 years of history to the present.

This is the Greece we know: The Greece that endures, from soul to stones, to the birds in the winds, singing ancient hymns.

Thalassa Journeys was founded in 2018 by George and Vasos Papagapitos and other exprerienced travel professionals. Born in the Greek island of Rhodes and moving to New York in the early 1960s to continue their higher education, the Papagapitos brothers started, in 1969, Travel Dynamics, a company that introduced a whole new concept in travel – focusing on education and enrichment as an integral part of the travel experience. Over the next four decades Travel Dynamics became the driving force in educational travel, serving America’s leading cultural, educational and scientific institutions on land tours and small ship voyages throughout the world. Now we’re taking that wealth of experience and applying it to the lands we know most intimately, with unique thematic journeys to immerse youin the culture, the character, the atmosphere, the enviroment, and the spirit and soul at the birthplace of Western civilization.
