Itinerary

  • Day 1

    Athens

    We recommend arriving a day or two early to fully explore this world-renowned city.

    There are no activities planned until an evening welcome meeting.

  • Day 2

    Athens

    Explore the city on a guided walking tour to the Parthenon and Acropolis with a refreshment stop at a local non-profit cafe, Shedia Home, along the way. Enjoy a free afternoon to immerse yourself deeper into this historical city; opt to visit the new Acropolis Museum, the Ancient Agora, or the National Archaeological Museum. Later in the evening attend a cooking class with a local chef and enjoy a dinner of your creations.

  • Day 3

    Athens/Meteora

    Perched on high cliffs there are monasteries built on immense natural pillars and make for a once-in-a-lifetime sight.

  • Day 4

    Meteora

    Spend a full free day in the area. Head out and visit the mountain top monasteries on your own by bus or pre-book the Meteora Monasteries Hiking Tour to do it on foot with a local guide.

  • Day 5

    Meteora/Delphi

    Travel through mountain scenery around Mt Parnassos to Delphi.

    Enjoy a visit to the ancient city of Delphi, then spend the evening exploring the charming little town or relaxing in a small café enjoying the views of the nearby valley.

  • Day 6

    Delphi/Náfplio

    Described as one of Greece's prettiest towns, the narrow pedestrian streets of old town are begging to be strolled upon.

  • Day 7

    Náfplio/Athens

    There is a wealth of ancient sites to explore within easy reach of Nafplio on a free day such as Epidavros, which is highly regarded as one of the most renowned of Greek ancient sites. Or choose to visit the famous Mycenae, also close by, with its spectacular treasury and ruins, or for another lesser-known Mycenean site visit Tiryns, just in the suburbs of Nafplio itself.

  • Day 8

    Athens

    Depart at any time.
