Overview

This private full-day bus tour lasts about 14 hours, starting from Athens in a Mercedes Benz luxury vehicle. The first stop is Thermopylae, where travelers visit the Innovative Centre of Historical Information and see the Statue of Leonidas, marking the site of the famous battle involving the 300 Spartans. Next, the tour heads to Meteora, where several monasteries stand atop 1000-foot rock formations. Visitors explore monasteries such as the Holy Monastery of Varlaam, Rousanou, and the Holy Trinity. There is a coffee break in Kalabaka before driving through the stone villages of Arachova, with a chance to stop for photos and souvenirs. Afterward, the tour continues to Delphi, situated beneath Mount Parnassos at 3000 feet elevation. Here, the group visits the Archaeological Museum of Delphi and the archaeological site including the Temple of Apollo. The route includes a stop at a mountain-edge village for about 35 minutes, offering views and time to relax with coffee or buy souvenirs. The Distomo Massacre Memorial is also visited for 25 minutes, commemorating a 1944 Nazi war crime where 350 villagers lost their lives. The day concludes with a meal at a Greek taverna, where all travelers receive an inclusive dinner featuring grilled foods, salads, desserts, wine, beer, and soft drinks. Bottled water is provided throughout the trip. The operator provides local guiding services and liability insurance per person. Entrance fees to monuments and historical sites are not included as the operator does not hold licenses to guide inside them. The schedule and stops can be adjusted on request.
