Detailed itinerary
1
Our first stop after 25 minutes of driving will be the unique Lake of Vouliagmeni. It is one of the most impressive natural attractions of Athens, but also of the world and has been ranked among the top 10 attractions of Greece according to Forbes. Here we will enjoy our traditional Greek coffee.
Until we get there we will drive along the idyllic coastal road, full of palm trees and beautiful beaches.
The Lake is the hidden jewel of the Athenian Riviera. It is a Natura 2000 site and the Ministry of Culture has declared it as a place of Special Natural Beauty. Since ancient times, it has been known for its healing properties and is the only healing lake in Attica. You will be in front of a rare geological phenomenon that brings tranquility away from the busy Athens. We will share with you the myths from the time of the second world war and the contemporary studies about its unique biodiversity.
2
Enjoy the superb route of Laimos Vouliagmenis where we will pass in front of the ancient temple of Apollo Zostiras and we will find ourselves at the cape where you will have the opportunity for enchanting panoramic photos. Ask your guide to show you the fantastic church built by the children of the orphanage, decorated with shells collected from the nearby beach.
3
In this location you will have the opportunity to take a short walk on the beach, next to the ancient road that was built in the 4th century AC. The port was of great commercial importance and today it is an attraction of unique natural beauty. If you wish, you can extend your route here, either for a seafood meal next to the sea, or for a short swim on the pristine beach. Excellent spot for photography.
You will walk along a part of the ancient carriage road, which once connected the Municipality of Aixonides Alon with the port of the coastal front. This discovery came to light during an excavation at Megalo Kavouri Vouliagmeni. From the coins and pottery found at the excavation site, it appears that the road remained in use throughout the 4th century AC. This is a particularly important discovery that illuminates aspects of the urban organization of the area, as well as the economic and commercial activity of its inhabitants.
