The "Cycling In Greece" tour starts and ends in Athens. It is a bicycle trip that takes 8 days taking you through Mycenae, Poros, Epidaurus and 3 other destinations in Greece. "Cycling In Greece" is a guided small group tour that includes accommodation in hotels, meals and others.

For history, archaeology and mythology, the Peloponnese is arguably the most interesting part of Greece. Our week of cycling is a journey through fascinating classical history and a superb variety of landscapes, from the azure blue of the sea to the green olive trees and vineyards of the heart of Greece. Starting and finishing in buzzing Athens, the ride offers plenty of opportunities to discover some of the country’s treasures, such as Poros Island and the beautiful town of Nafplio. Each day gives us the chance to sample excellent local food in various restaurants and tavernas and immerse ourselves in the Greek culture and lifestyle.
