About this activity

Explore two millennia of Greek history on this curated full-day private journey from Athens, visiting the engineering marvel of the Corinth Canal, the archaeological treasures of Ancient Corinth, and the clifftop temple sanctuary of Heraion of Perachora. Includes lunch and personalised commentary on history, mythology, and culture throughout.

Our trip starts from Athens.

On this full day tour you will see the most beautiful sights and scenery. On our way I will give you a lot of information about history, mythology and culture.

We will enjoy a visit to the Corinth Canal, the Ancient Corinth and the Heraion of Perachora

This is a luxury tour with a luxury car.

Highlights

  • Corinth Canal – iconic 6.3 km waterway cutting through the Isthmus
  • Ancient Corinth – walk among temples, agoras, and Roman-era ruins
  • Heraion of Perachora – remote hilltop sanctuary with Aegean views
  • Private luxury vehicle – comfortable travel with flexibility
  • Included lunch – taste local cuisine during the day
  • Expert narration – insights into Greek mythology and classical history

Insider tips

  • Visit Heraion of Perachora early or late in the day to avoid crowds and midday heat on the exposed hilltop.
  • Wear comfortable walking shoes; Ancient Corinth involves uneven terrain and significant walking across archaeological sites.
  • The Corinth Canal viewpoint is brief but photogenic – have your camera ready during the approach.
  • Ask your guide about lesser-known local tavernas near Corinth town for authentic dining experiences beyond the included lunch.

Good to know

  • Duration: 8 hours total, including travel from Athens and lunch break.
  • Bring sun protection (hat, sunscreen, sunglasses) – archaeological sites offer minimal shade.
  • Private tour means flexible pacing; discuss any specific interests with your guide before departure.
  • Terrain at Heraion involves uneven paths; those with mobility concerns should confirm accessibility with the operator beforehand.
  • Meeting point and exact pickup time will be confirmed upon booking.
