Why take this tour?

Our first stop is at historical Thermopylae! Paying tribute to King Leonidas of Sparta and his 300 Spartan warriors we will visit the amazing monument of his statue which is captivating! Next stop breathtaking Meteora! Meteora is considered one of the most beautiful areas of mainland Greece and its hanging monasteries are one of the country’s most unique attractions. At the foot of Mount Parnassos, lies the Pan-Hellenic sanctuary of Delphi, which was the most famous oracle of ancient Greece. Delphi was regarded as the “navel” of the world. Ancient Olympia in Greece was the site of the ancient Olympic Games, which were celebrated every four years by the Greeks.  Mycenae, the kingdom of Agamemnon is a World Heritage UNESCO Site discovered by H. Schliemann. According to the epics of Homer, the expedition to Troy started from here. Nafplio was the first capital city of modern Greece. It is a picturesque town with Venetian architecture that the Venetians used to call the Naples of Greece.   This magnificent Epidaurus theater was constructed in the late 4th century BC to host religious events to honor the god Asclepius. It’s famous for its symmetry and it is also unique because of its excellent state of conservation, which allows it to be still in use.  We will explore the incredible archaeological site of Ancient Corinth with the fabulous museum, courtyard, temple of Apollo, fountain of Glauke, Sacred Spring, Peirene, Asklepieion, Odeion, Bema, Agora and much more.   Ancient Diolkos where you discover and explore the ancient passage from the Corinthian to Saronic gulf and the subducting bridge.  Lastly, you will appreciate the engineering and incredible views of the Corinthian and Saronic gulfs at Isthmus/Corinth canal.
