About this experience
Enter the world of the Eleusinian Mysteries, one of the most fascinating and closely guarded traditions of ancient Greece, on a private journey from Athens to the sacred city of Eleusis.
Curated by Pericles Century, the experience begins with selected landmarks along the ancient route to Eleusis, including surviving traces of the Sacred Way, the Monastery of Daphni, the Sanctuary of Aphrodite, and the ancient bridge of the Eleusinian Kephisos.
The heart of the journey awaits at the Sanctuary of Demeter and Persephone. Explore the monumental gateways, the mysterious Ploutonion, and the remains of the Telesterion, where initiates once entered a ritual world whose secrets were guarded for centuries.
Discover the mythology of Demeter and Persephone and the ideas of initiation, loss, return, and renewal that gave Eleusis its extraordinary place in the ancient world.
A private experience for travelers drawn to mythology, mystery, archaeology, and the sacred traditions of ancient Greece.
