Greece is a beloved destination and in addition to the more popular islands, the mainland offers plenty of options for a classic Mediterranean holiday.

A drive around the Greek mainland brings visitors to interesting archaeological sites, picturesque seaside towns and magnificent beaches. With this 5-day self-drive tour that starts and ends in Athens, you will pass by Peloponnese, Delphi and Kalambaka having the opportunity to visit some of the most important sites throughout Greece. Visit the archaeological site of Delphi and the UNESCO World Heritage-listed rock-tower monasteries of Meteora.
This was a trip of a lifetime! Every turn on this trip was like a page in my old geography/history books. The food was exceptional throughout the trip. Our tour guide, Savvos, was the best! It is evident he loves his job. However, the activity level of this trip needs to be rated higher, in my opinion. I understand that the nature of the islands means more walking and climbing because of where most attractions were located, but I believe the activity level should be 4 or 5 as a result. I will scrutinize all trips in the future.

It was an amazing way to see so many awesome-inspiring Greek places. The archeological sites and locations were an adventure to be had (make sure to pack hiking shoes!) and our group became like family as we discovered all new places and history together. Would 10/10 do it again in a heartbeat.

We’re both in our 60s and loved the concept of seeing iconic cities in one tour. Highlights for us were Cape Town and Agra, very well organized with knowledgeable guides. The early morning flights and long transfers were tiring, and there wasn’t much time to unpack before moving again. That said, we met lovely people and learned so much. We just wish we had more time in Singapore. They handled logistics impressively for such a big tour. Would recommend for flexible, energetic travelers.

The whole trip was fantastic. Our guide was incredible, thinking one of the best in his field.
Wish there was more time to shop in the various regions we visited, especially Turkey. We were not given any opportunity to shop but at 1 rug vendor. There were so many near the port that we didn’t even get to go to.
Some of the tours were a bit lengthy and information overload. But overall, good.
