Starting from Athens, the capital of Greece, we will take the scenic route through the plains of Beotia before arriving in Delphi.

In the times of antiquity Delphi was known all around the world for Oracle, who knew all the secrets of the ancients and could predict the future. You will see the sanctuary of Apollo, the ancient Delphic theater and many other archaeological sites, as well as enjoy the magnificent mountain landscapes. Meteora is the icing on the cake of our tour. The real geological wonder, gigantic rocks reaching heights of more than 600 meters and breathtaking landscapes were formed millions of years ago. Monasteries built on the pillars of the rocks are the real monuments to the power of nature and human faith.
