10 minutes
Corinth Canal

Visit the Isthmus Canal, the gateway to the Peloponnesus.

30 minutes
Archaeological Site Mycenae

Visit Mycenae Rich in Gold! King Agamemnon's mythical kingdom sung in Homer's epics. It is the most important and richest center of the late Bronze Age. The Lions Gate: The main entrance of the Bronze age citadel of Mycenae erected during the 13th century BC is truly breathtaking Grave Circles A and B: Royal cemeteries situated to the south of the Lions Gate and outside the Bronze Age citadel. The Cyclopean Walls: The main characteristic of the Mycenaean walls is that they are made of huge limestone boulders. Only the mythical Cyclopes had the strength to move the enormous boulders that made up the walls of Mycenae and Tiryns. The Royal Palace: Consisting of domestic apartments, the Throne Room Suite, the Grand Staircase, a collection of rooms for officers or palace officials and the Forecourt. The tomb of Klytemnistra, the wife of King Agamemnon and leader of the Greeks during the Trojan War is a Mycenaean tholos (beehive) tomb that is truly remarkable.

1 hour
Citadel and Treasury of Atreus

The Treasury of Atreus: Also known as the tomb of Agamemnon is an elaborate large tholos or beehive tomb constructed during the late Bronze Age around 1250 BC. Truly remarkable!

20 minutes
Nemea

A beautiful land of soft hills with endless vineyards and great wines.The 'California Napa Valley' of the Peloponnese is a popular day trip from Athens for every lover of antiquity. It is here where Hercules completed his first of 12 labours slaying the Nemean lion.Fewer places in Greece combine ancient Greek temples with what feels a lot like the Napa Valley of California. Nemea should be on the itinerary of every traveler to the Peloponnese.The Temple of Zeus / Jupiter: Dating around the 4th century BC, the center piece of the Macedonian building program was the temple of Nemean Zeus. Three columns of which have always stood since the time of the original construction are captivating . Zeus in Nemea is the god of shepherds reflecting the remarkable valley. The Ancient baths: The Nemean baths are an athletic bathing house at the Panhellenic sanctuary of Nemea. Returning to Athens we stop at Ancient Corinth for lunch

30 minutes
Ancient Nemea

The ancient stadium at Nemea constructed around 330BC has a track of 178 metres long with a stone water channel bordering it. The seating capacity was for approximately 40 000 visitors. 1.The Apodyterium: The Apodyterium is where athletes got undressed, oiled their skin and prepared for the games. The Ancient Stadium Crypt: Over 36 m. in length and for the most part in very good condition it is the entrance tunnel that makes the Nemean games unique. It is the passage through the tunnel, clad in chiton and with bare feet that effects the transformation of the participant from a modern to an ancient. The tunnel thus plays the critical role in the accomplishment of our goal to provide an opportunity for anyone and everyone to become an ancient Greek athlete. It is here we see ancient athletes names engraved on the walls together with dedications to the goddess of Victory, ΝΊΚΗ NIKE. The stadium track and starting grid characterized by toe grooves cut into the stone block.

Outstanding trip - highly recommended

Published on Oct, 2024

The tour experience was wonderful! Our driver Peter had an incredible knowledge of the area that we were going and relationships with the people that we visited. We learned a lot from him - both about history and from his personal life experience with his family. The winery experience was a perfect end to the tour with delicious wine and an informative guide. I would absolutely recommend this to anybody who is looking to both experience the history of Greece and have a relaxing day.

Excellent driving, excellent tour guide, great tour!

Published on Sep, 2024

Peter is the best tour guide we’ve ever had: filled with positive energy and historical knowledge. We learned so much from him about Ancient Greece and the Greece of today. He was prepared for the trip with a nice, comfortable vehicle, plenty of water, and local cookies. Palivou Wine was tasty & the Corinth canal and the Mycenae ruins were very interesting to see. Peter also let us out at each stop for us to explore vs tagging along with us, allowing us as much time at each site as we wanted, which I really like. But he did help take pictures for us, which was also very nice! Excellent driving, excellent tour guide, great tour!

The Modern and Ancient Peloponnese Heart!

Published on Aug, 2024

There is so much to say! This tour was just Marvelous. Putting several famous locations in one day is no easy task - alongside a dinnner and fabulous winery experience!. But this is real and the tour was extremely well put together - Thanks to our incredible guide Yannis. It is well paced, and you get to the sites before the tour buses! A tour good for different kinds of travellers. Since we already did the corinth canal, our guide was kind enough to take us to the location of the only remaining pulley road for the boats. We really appreciated the effort!

Amazing!

Published on May, 2024

We had a fantastic time on our day excursion! Our tour guide, Yannis, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was very attentive to our needs, bringing us pasteries in the morning and water while we were walking the ancient sites. The winery and lunch were very nice, we all bought a bottle and the staff at the restaurant were fantastic. We had the whole Nymean site and arena to ourselves which was nice. Not crowded at all. Overall our favorite day so far on our vacation!

A wonderful day

Published on May, 2023

I can't recommend George highly enough. He was a great guide, knew his history and welcomed our schedule to take time seeing the sights that we wanted to spend time at.
