Itinerary
Day 1Athens – Corinth Canal – Epidaurus – Nauplia – Mycenae – Olympia
Departing from Athens, we travel west along the stunning coastline to the Corinth Canal, a marvel of engineering offering breathtaking views (short stop). This canal connects the western Mediterranean to the eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea, playing a vital role in international sea transport.
We continue along the coastal road of the Saronic Gulf to visit Epidaurus, home to the famous ancient theater. Renowned for its exceptional acoustics, the theater allowed 12,000 spectators to hear unamplified voices from the stage.
Next, we head to Nauplia, Greece's first capital in 1829 (short stop), before continuing to Mycenae, the legendary kingdom of Agamemnon. This palatial center of the Late Bronze Age, described by Homer as "rich in gold," represents one of the greatest civilizations of Greek prehistory, the Mycenaean civilization.
In the afternoon, we journey to Olympia. Enjoy dinner and an overnight stay at the hotel.
Day 2Olympia – Rion-Antirion Bridge – Nafpaktos – Delphi
Start the day exploring Olympia, the most celebrated sanctuary of ancient Greece, dedicated to Zeus. This lush site, nestled near Mount Kronios, was the birthplace of the Olympic Games, a prestigious festival held every four years. Visit the archaeological site and museum to uncover its rich history.
Our journey continues via Patras to the Rion-Antirion Bridge, a modern engineering marvel and the longest suspended bridge in Europe. Drive through the charming coastal town of Nafpaktos, and then on to Delphi. Dinner and an overnight stay at the hotel.
Day 3Delphi – Kalambaka
Discover the ancient sanctuary of Delphi, situated at the foot of Mount Parnassos amidst stunning natural scenery. Once regarded as the center of the world, Delphi was home to the famous Oracle and the Pythian Games, second only to the Olympics.
Visit the archaeological site and museum, where highlights include the bronze Charioteer of Delphi, a masterpiece of ancient Greek art.
After exploring Delphi, depart for Kalambaka, the gateway to Meteora. Dinner and an overnight stay at the hotel.
Day 4Meteora – Athens
Experience the awe-inspiring Meteora Monasteries, an iconic site perched atop towering rock formations. These "suspended in air" monasteries were once accessible only by nets and wooden ladders. Built by monks in the 14th century, they are a testament to human ingenuity and devotion.
Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Meteora monasteries are a unique cultural phenomenon. After a visit, return to Athens, bringing an unforgettable journey through Greece’s ancient heritage to a close.
