Start driving from Athens

Ancient Corinth was first inhabited in the Neolithic period (6500-3250 B.C.). Ancient Corinth was one of the largest and most important cities of Greece, with a population of 90,000 in 400 BC. The Romans demolished Corinth in 146 BC, built a new city in its place in 44 BC, and later made it the provincial capital of Greece. For Christians, Corinth is well known from the two letters from Paul the Apostle in the New Testament, the First Epistle to the Corinthians and the Second Epistle to the Corinthians.

Mycenae 'Rich in Gold', the kingdom of mythical Agamemnon, first sung by Homer in his epics, is the most important and richest palatial centre of the Late Bronze Age in Greece. Palatial complexes, Cyclopean masonry which is awe-inspiring even today, the famous "Tomb of Agamemnon" (also known as the "Treasury of Atreus"), huge arches, fountains and ramparts comprise one of the greatest architectural complexes known to the ancient world.

Sea, sunbath swim, traditional lunch, and a light adventure in Sunken city, to see Mycenaean tombs of the 12th century BC, walls, foundations of buildings, amphorae, and paved sections look crystal clear through the blue waters, swimming. In some places even the ancient jetty is saved.
