This private half day trip from Athens gives you plenty of time to explore the many treasures around Corinth. Exclusively for you and your party, you'll spend the morning uncovering the ruins of the city of Corinth and also enjoy short stops at the Corinth Canal and the port town of Kechries.

You'll head southwest through pretty countryside to the steep-walled Corinth Canal, which connects the Aegean and Ionian seas. Grab your Insta-perfect selfies overlooking the waterway, before we continue onto ancient Corinth. The former stomping ground of the mythical Jason of the Argonauts is one of the Peloponnese's most underrated classical archaeological sites.

Let your guide bring the past to life as you discover the city on a walking tour. You'll pass highlights such as the Agora, Pirene fountain and Doric Temple of Apollo, which dates from the fifth century BC. Then, finish the morning at the seaside town of Kechries, where St Paul is said to have disembarked from his ship before making the overland journey to Corinth.

Privat rundtur i Athen med besøk i Akropolis og Plaka – halv dag

De gamle grekerne etterlot seg en skattkiste av monumenter, statuer og gjenstander i Athen. Og på denne turen får du oppleve alle høydepunktene med en privat guide. Dere besøker blant annet den romerske agoraen, Hadrians bibliotek, Plaka-området og den UNESCO-listede Akropolis. Vassiliki, en av våre dyktige lokalguider, sier: "Akropolis betyr "høy by", og det refererer vanligvis til enhver bosetning bygget på toppen av en ås. Du vil finne mange byer i Hellas som har en akropolis, men Akropolis i Athen er absolutt den mest kjente."Du starter med en guidet tur på Akropolis – med gå-forbi-køen-billetter er det ingen ventetid. Nyt wow-faktor-utsikten over Athen ved Areopagos – en steinete høyde der legenden sier at de greske gudene ville holde hoffet. La guiden bringe historien til live mens du beundrer gamle landemerker som den romerske agoraen, Dionysos-teatret og de fortsatt stående søylene i Asklepieion og Parthenon.Deretter går turen videre til byens Instagram-verdige gamle bydel, Plaka – hovedstadens mest tiltalende og historiske bydel. Gågatene er alltid fulle av en blanding av lokalbefolkningen og besøkende, og er fulle av tavernaer med bordene ute i gatene. Vassiliki sier: "Athenerne kaller dette området «gudenes nabolag», ettersom det har vært bebodd siden antikkens Hellas. Faktisk viser utgravninger at gateplanet knapt har endret seg siden antikken."
