About this experience

Experience the wonders of Greece on this unique tour! Our journey begins at Delphi, one of Greece's most significant archaeological sites and a UNESCO World Heritage monument. Marvel at the ancient ruins and immerse yourself in the rich history of this sacred place.

Next, we travel to the historic site of Thermopylae. Pay tribute to King Leonidas of Sparta and his 300 warriors as we visit the captivating monument dedicated to their heroic stand.

Our final stop is the breathtaking Meteora. Known as one of the most beautiful regions in mainland Greece, Meteora's hanging monasteries are truly a sight to behold. Witness the stunning play of light on the rocks, creating ever-changing moods. On sunny mornings, the red roof tiles of the monasteries glisten against the weathered gray rocks, while the late afternoon sun casts a golden glow over the landscape.

Join us for an unforgettable adventure through these iconic landmarks of Greece.
