Overview of your Athens tour:

Why this tour? Up for a "real Greece" experience? It's a tour of landscape, mountain views, people, food, and historic, non-touristy monasteries at amazing locations. Don't be surprised if we meet locals who talk to us like we are best friends. We have a connection because the countryside people are very authentic, friendly, and spontaneous. Experience real Greece from a local point of view with a full-day trip to the mountain villages of the Arcadia region in the center of the Mythical Peloponnese. Explore the beautiful villages of the Arcadia region, and wet your feet in the Lousios River. Visit a couple of cliff-hanging monasteries, taste local food, and visit the Open Air Water-Power Museum. Lunch and drinks in a very scenic location before returning to your base. This tour is unique because it differentiates itself from others, giving you the opportunity to view Greece's beauty also, these monasteries are authentic compared to the beautiful yet very touristy Meteora monasteries.
