12 Why KudoS * * from the Ancient Greek κῦδοϛ: acclaim or praise for exceptional achievement. Kudos Life Experience is a creative branch of Kudos that is focusing in scripting and producing once in a lifetime travel experiences with scenes in unique and isolated Greek locations. Inspired by a diversified cultural and mythological pool of scripts we select stories worth sharing and invite our member clients to reinvent themselves in play roles they have heard of or dreamed of as children while at the same time they reinvent Greece from a completely different perspective. Their travel wanders are then shared with their friends in a personal movie production. We firmly believe that in today s sophisticated travel experiential market it s how the guest is experiencing a place and how it changes him/her while still providing an alternative and authentic angle to understand Greece and its heritage. We focus on showing and not telling a story which will deeper affect the connoisseur traveler in both emotional and educational level.
