The experience was incredible, and the company took such great care of us. Everyone was able to take their time and stick to the schedule. The stop in Corinth is brief and just for the canal—there’s nothing to see in the city itself. The only thing that disappointed me was the app experience, which implied that all tickets were included, but when it came time to book, I discovered that the one for Epidaurus wasn’t there! And there wasn’t even an option to add it! I thought that was really bad, and I suggest you pay close attention when booking so you aren’t caught off guard like I was.

Follow a gas emission neutral route that links a Corinth Canal viewpoint with time at three major ancient sites in the Peloponnese in one day.

Meet your group in Athens, then board an air conditioned bus with onboard WiFi as you set off toward the Peloponnese for your first stop.

Visit Mycenae and the sanctuary at Epidaurus, see the theater, then continue to Nafplio for a walking tour through its harbor and old lanes.

At the sites and museum, follow your English speaking guide and audio app in nine languages using the provided headphones for clear commentary.

Upgrade to include entry tickets to the Mycenae archaeological site and Tomb of Agamemnon so you can step inside the citadel and royal chamber.
