Escape to the beautiful island of Samos for an inspiring Tango Vacation at the Hotel Zeus in Ireo!
You can expand your tango experience on the island with additional days of learning and dancing. This unique holiday perfectly blends relaxation with passionate dance. Your days will start with engaging Tango lessons every morning, focusing on technique and connection, helping you elevate your skills. After relaxing at the hotel swimming pool or at the sea you get ready to spend the evening dancing tango in hotel, at the local winery after wine tasting or dancing greek traditional dances in a local taverna after sharing a traditional dinner.
All lessons will take place with Eva Tsiganou & Gustavo Colmenarejo, two experienced Tango teachers who live and pass on tango with all their hearts. Together, Eva & Gustavo create an atmosphere in which you feel comfortable from the very first moment. Clear, sensitive explanations, a large dose of humour and their warm manner ensure that everyone – whether beginners or experienced dancers – learns, grows and enjoys themselves with pleasure. In their classes, they place great emphasis on body awareness, connection and musical presence.
The lessons are structured for advanced tango dancers will focus on how to develop from one’s individual inner connection to the mutual bond.
The development will be supported by technical tools for a flexible embrace and improvisation:

- Learning small elements for navigating small spaces (essential for crowded milongas).
- Developing musicality.

Excursion – Wine tasting and Milonga at the Winery Hatziioannou Estate
Located in the Mytilinioi area of Samos, Hatziioannou Estate is a family-run enterprise committed exclusively to crafting high-quality organic wines.
Founded in 2019 by Georgios, Themistoklis, and Evangelos Hatzigiannis, the Estate is the culmination of a family tradition in viticulture and winemaking that began in the 19th century.
Now representing the sixth generation, the Hatzigiannis family leverages centuries of wisdom alongside the rigorous science of modern oenology and organic farming practices. Their ultimate aim is to produce exceptional wines that genuinely express the unique terroir of Samos and beautifully articulate the character of the indigenous grape: the small-berried Muscat, which has flourished on this land for 25 centuries.
