This two-day spiritual journey concludes at the legendary Delphi site, where the Oracle used vestal virgins to communicate cryptic forecasts to those seeking knowledge. Amidst the decayed ruins, the traces of temples and amphitheaters tell a story of a society that trusted in the power of foretelling.
With each stride, allow the echoes of history to lead you towards the mysteries resting within these holy premises. Climb the inclines of Mount Parnassus, where the ancient people thought gods lived, and marvel at the astonishing landscape that unfurls in front of you, from mountains to the sea.
This voyage also covers stops at the enchanting ski resort village of Arachova with its rock-built dwellings and twisted streets, and a tour to the 10th-century Byzantine monastery, Ossios Loukas, near the village of Distomo.
