Curator’s Tour of Northern Greece
May 22 – 31, 2027
Join the Curator of the Icon Museum and Study Center, Dr. Elliot Mackin, and travel expert Ilya Gotlinsky, for an in-depth tour of Northern Greece. Over the course of this 10-day exploration led by an expert in Byzantine religious art, see for yourself the artistic, cultural, and historic heritage of Northern Greece’s churches, monasteries, archaeological sites, monuments, and museums.
Greece is remarkable not only for its artistic riches and cultural heritage but also for its dramatic landscapes and unforgettable cuisine. Elliot will personally guide you on a behind-the-scenes tour of some of the greatest monuments, museums, churches, and monasteries which adorn the rugged landscape, picturesque villages, and imperial splendor found throughout Thessaloniki and Greek Macedonia.
As the Icon Museum and Study Center enters its third decade, this opportunity is really special. We have teamed up with Fr. Ilya Gotlinsky of Orthodox Tours, a travel expert and cultural diplomat whose decades of experience and personal connections will offer us access to sites and treasures otherwise inaccessible to pilgrims and tourists.
Spots are limited and on a first-come, first-served basis, so don’t wait to save your spot!
