Your route runs from the Acropolis’s smooth marble temples to Mycenae’s massive stone walls and into Nafplio, where cobbled lanes curl between neoclassical mansions and bougainvillea spills from balconies. At Delphi, you’ll follow the Sacred Way between the Phaedriades rocks towards the Temple of Apollo, where pilgrims travelled to consult the oracle. At Meteora, you’ll look up at centuries-old monasteries built on sandstone peaks, some with 16th-century frescoes preserved inside.
day 1Begin Your Greek Journey in Athens
You'll arrive in Athens and find antiquity threaded through the city: marble columns beyond cafe tables, temple ruins beside narrow streets and the Acropolis high above the rooftops. After checking in, you can explore the streets at your own pace, perhaps turning into Plaka where pedestrian lanes curl past neoclassical faades and bougainvillea tumbles from balconies. You might catch the roasted scent of Greek coffee from a kafenion or pick up a sesame-crusted koulouri from a bakery. Later, meet your Travel Director and fellow travellers, ready to begin twelve days together in Greece.
