About this experience

This four-day tour around the Greek mainland is a real treasure for a history lover.

We can’t miss the stop at the Corinth Canal, so that you could take picture of the first manmade wonder on our way, after that you will check the acoustics in the Theater of Epidaurus, where the heroes of Aristophanes’ and Euripides’ stories came to life.

After that you will find yourself in one of the most charming towns in the Peloponnese – Nafpleon, which used to be first capital of modern Greece.

Do you remember king Agamemnon, the one who conquered the great city of Troy? You will have the opportunity to see his massive Tomb in Mycenae. Then we will set off to Olympia, that is where the Olympic games come from.

Our next stop is going to be in Delphi, that was regarded as the center of the world.

Meteora is the icing on the cake of our tour. The real geological wonder, gigantic rocks reaching heights of more than 600 meters and breathtaking landscapes were formed millions of years ago.
