Volunteering in Crete

Enjoy the mesmerizing Aegean island of Crete while you conduct some worthy charitable work with Desmos.

About Your Trip

Heraklion is the political hub and nerve center of Crete, largest of the Greek Islands and the Bronze Age heartland of the Minoan civilization. Crete sweeps from glorious beaches along the Aegean Sea to the sharp-edged spine of the White Mountains to compose some of the Mediterranean’s handsomest scenery. Today, Crete is a major tourist destination that offers outstanding historical sites, delicious food, fantastic wine and sun-warmed sand.

With this VolunTour package to the Greek Islands, you’ll be assisting with the charitable efforts of Desmos, the International Link of Orthodox Christian Scouts. On top of your service work, you’ll relish your high-class accommodations in Heraklion, which includes some of Crete’s finest cultural attractions.
