Highlights
  • Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal connects the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It cuts through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth and separates the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, arguably making the peninsula an island. The canal was dug through the isthmus at sea level and has no locks. It is 6.4 kilometers (4 mi) in length and only 21.4 meters (70 ft.) wide at its base, making it impassable for many modern ships.
    From high up, you can enjoy the best view of Corinth’s isthmus and admire the steep limestone walls while you observe the vessels below you navigate their way through the canal.

The Corinth Canal is a canal that cuts through the slender Corinth isthmus, connecting the Corinth Gulf with the Saronic Gulf. In doing so, the canal separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, essentially making it an island.
Mycenae
Referred to as ‘Rich in Gold’, the realm of the legendary Agamemnon, as immortalized in Homer’s epics, is the most prominent and affluent palace center of the Late Bronze Age in Greece. One of the greatest civilizations in Greek prehistory, the Mycenaean, was named after it.

Perfect Day Trip from Athens - Andreas was an excellent driver and guide for the region. He grew up in the area and knows it well. Very friendly and accommodating for any adjustments throughout the day. He got us in before the large tour buses

Great experience - A great tour of some of Ancient Greece most important places. The guide was great and helped give context and meaning to the places. We were able to go at own pace and it was a relaxed and enjoyable experience especially for the kids (7&10). Would recommend.

Superb tour of Corinth & Mycenae - We had a superb time, our driver/guide gave lots of historical context and had a passion for the places and Greek history. The pickup, drop off professional and we were not rushed around but given good guidance on timings. An excellent day and that’s with a 7 & 10yr old who loved the day! Going in winter was also perfect weather wise for the walks.
