about Theano Papaioannou

Theano Papaioannou was born in Athens in 1970.

From a young age she showed interest in archeology, exploration and traveling. When she grew up, this childish curiosity, along with a talent for foreign languages, drew her to the School for Tourist Guides of Athens, where she graduated in 1995.

Her long professional experience includes tour guiding in German and English to archeological sites and museums, as well as treks in special interest areas all over Greece.

Moreover, from 2001 to 2010, Theano designed and implemented outdoor corporate management training programs. These programs’ objectives were team building, leadership, corporate culture and corporate values.

At the same time, with her initial childlike enthusiasm, she started designing and organizing children guided tour programs, for kindergarten and primary school children.

Her aim is for the children to approach and understand antiquity with all their senses, through an experiential and creative game. This is Theano’s bigger challenge yet. It is an exemplary innovation in the field of children’s creative activities.
