Overview of your Tinos tour:

An amazing tour for art lovers. Quick stop at the current quarry to see where marble is born and right after directly to the Museum of Marble Arts. There you can understand how the Tinian craftsman takes from the quarry a slab of marble and works on it , you will see how he creates statues, fanlights, fountains, iconostasis, tower bells, stadiums and palaces. Walking through the cemetery of Pyrgos, actually an open-air sculpture museum , you reach Pyrgos square to have some coffee, ouzo or rakhi with sweets or "meze" (snacks). Next stop is at the Giannoulis Halepas' house, the greatest sculptor of modern Greece and at the Museum of Tinian artists which is adjacent to it. The route goes on to the workshops of the village where you will meet one of the distinguished local sculptors. While working on the marble, he will have a talk with you about the marble, the tools and the secrets of this art but you will also have the chance to admire his marble gems. Last stop traditional food at Panormos by the sea.
