Depending on your program length, you will either depart for home at the end of the first week or continue on for a second week of service. Volunteers departing this Saturday will be transported to Iraklion International Airport (HER) for their flight home. Volunteers continuing their service program get a weekend to explore. Whether it's tracing ancient ruins, relaxing on a sun-drenched beach, or catching a ferry to a neighboring island, it's your chance to experience the beauty of Greece beyond the classroom.

Sunday brings one more day to explore before service resumes. Catch a last sunset over the Aegean, wrap up your island-hopping, or simply relax, then get ready to dive back into your second week Monday morning.
