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
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
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.
