Why this tour? You will visit three legendary UNESCO sites from Ancient Greece during this 2-day tour. The destinations are "touristy" but you will still experience "real Greece" if you follow me. You relax on a private car ride to Delphi and you see ALL the attractions like the village of Arachova, the main site of Delphi, the great museum, the second site with the temple of Athina Pronaia, and finally -another important part of this private tour- the UNESCO world heritage monastery of Hosios Loukas. Athina Pronaia is the second site of Delphi and is often skipped (or missed!) by 90% of the visitors although is the most common feature shown when you google "Delphi". Late in the afternoon, we will arrive at Meteora and time permitting get an evening overview of the monasteries. The next morning we visit two or three amazing monasteries depending on your fitness and pace. Lunch and drinks will be my treat for you on both days and it will be at very special locations (where the locals eat).
Day 1 From your Athens accommodation or port or airport, we'll drive northwest towards Arachova town and Delphi. - Arachova town. Busy, touristy but worth a stop to quickly explore and take some photos. - Delphi site, Delphi museum, and Athina Pronaia. This is the main part of the tour. A demanding climb that you can do taking your time and enjoying some amazing views and ruins. - Lunch at a location away from tourism and with authentic food and drinks. - Depending on your pace maybe visit a Meteora monastery in the afternoon or just go up there for some amazing afternoon photos and views! Day 2 We visit 2-3 monasteries from: - The Great Meteoron Holy Monastery - Varlaam Monastery - Monastery of the Holy Trinity. Probably the most photographed monastery. - Roussanou Monastery - A stop at the Battlefield of Thermopylae - Return to Athens
