We had amazing time with Olga! The whole experience was engaging and awakening, Aristotle's philosophy was simply explained with examples from everyday life. Plus there is a brief historical introduction which explains a lot about ancient Athens' development.

If you are looking for an authentic experience, look no further.

Olga provided a wonderful experience as we took a journey into the minds of the great historic philosophers. The experience was well crafted with much interactive components. I especially enjoyed the exploration of virtues. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Best tour we had in Athens! Olga was amazing, explained the history of the 3 philosophers and also the virtues theory in a simple comprehensible way and we practiced it with examples. And we did that in the place of Aristotle's school, how cool is that!

The interactive aspects of the workshop brought about critical thinking, and a greater understanding of the golden mean between virtues and vices.

The philosophy was easy, funny and interactive. The Lyceum site was small, but the feeling of walking on the steps of Aristotle was great. We did examples from our life and learned what Aristotle would do if he was in our position. The instructor was very good, he answered all our questions from modern philosophy too. If you visit the Lyceum is very nice to do this activity, because without this, there is not much to do there.

Talking about philosophy while walking around Aristotle’s school brings forth very special sentiments. The historical overview in the beginning of the workshop helps paint a better picture about Aristotelian thought, and the activity during our walk in the Lyceum was thought-provoking.

Walking around the ruins of the Lyceum, discussing about the philosophies of Aristotle was truly an amazing experience. Trying to apply Aristotle’s logic to simple modern-day examples was also very informative. It’s both a fun and an educational experience!

Hubby and I had a wonderful time exploring Aristotle’s views and the Golden Mean. We had fun with the case studies cards, some of them very close to our own experiences! Alexander and Olga are very nice and knowledgeable people they explained everything in a simple way with specific examples. Great laughs when reading the ancient Greek quotes and great emotions when walking at the same pathway Aristotle and his students walked everyday around his school building remains.

We had a wonderful experience with Olga and Alexander. We not only learned about the evolution of Philosophy through the ages, but the fun activity that they took us through really helped us understand Aristotle’s views on virtue. We got goosebumps walking around and learning at the Lyceum, just as the students used to do.
