Overview

Our tours are about people and we have always been good with people! We skip the obvious places and we do not compromise the quality of the tour for any reason.
Let's visit some amazing locations that most people miss out on, with a full-day private day trip.
With your private group, see the off-the-beaten-track sites with your driver and guide. Journey to the Cave of Lakes; Odontotos Rack Railway, passing through Vouraikos Gorge; the Corinth Canal; and a choice of Ancient Corinth or the Mega Spilaio Monastery. Wine tasting is an option too!
Let your fully qualified private driver/tour leader treat you -and join you- to an authentic Greek experience, complete with an amazing “farm to table” lunch at a remote top of the mountains town. An experience for foodies! No fixed or touristy menu!
It's a unique & very authentic tour, away from the luxury offerings, all in the peaceful natural environment and beautiful scenery at the central planes of the Mythical Peloponnese.

Activity itinerary

Corinth Canal
  • 15m
The Corinth Canal connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It cuts through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth and separates the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, arguably making the peninsula an island.
Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos)
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket not included
Ancient Corinth was inhabited in the Neolithic period (6500-3250 BC) but the big prosperity began in the 8th century. Corinth was a city-state and for Christians, Corinth is well known from the two letters of Saint Paul in the New Testament, First and Second Corinthians. Corinth is also mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles as part of the Paul the Apostle's missionary travels.
Acrocorinth
  • 35m
  • Admission ticket not included
OPTIONAL: Acrocorinth, "Upper Corinth", the acropolis of ancient Corinth, is a monolithic rock overseeing the ancient city of Corinth and the Corinthian Gulf. It is the most impressive of the acropolis of mainland Greece. With its secure water supply, Acrocorinth's fortress was repeatedly used as a last line of defence in southern Greece because it commanded the Isthmus of Corinth, repelling foes from entry by land into the Peloponnese peninsula.
Cooperative Winery of Nemea
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
OPTIONAL wine tasting: Nemea is famous for the ancient site with the stunning Temple of Zeus, but it is also a well-known wine-producing region (a small Napa valley!) with the biggest vineyards in the Balkans. If you take this option you will need an earlier pick up at 7:30 am instead of 8:30.
Kalavrita
  • 1h 30m
Kalavrita and the surrounding area are a resort for all seasons. This is your lunch place! We explore the centre of the town on foot before or after lunch. This beautiful town lies at the foot of Mt. Chelmos and it is a must-visit for the Athenians during the cold months of the year because of its ski centre but not only!. Kalavrita is a dreamlike setting with stone-built houses, small squares, charming alleys, picturesque cafés and tavernas right next to the huge shady plane trees.:An ideal destination ideal for those aiming to combine their love for nature with their romantic mood.
Kastria Cave of the Lakes
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
The Mythical 'CAVE OF THE LAKES' has something exclusively unique that does not exist in other well-known caves. A rare creation of nature with mysterious galleries and strange stalactite formations. THE MYTHICAL 'CAVE OF THE LAKES' has something exclusively unique that does not exist in other well-known caves. A rare creation of nature with mysterious galleries and strange stalactite formations. A unique natural creation featuring 13 cascading lakes of various sizes and shapes, three different levels, and a steady year-round temperature of 16-17°C. Around 1980 metres of the cave have been explored, though at present only 500 metres are open to visitors. Fossilised bones of various animals have been found here, as well as important archaeological and anthropological finds (including pottery and tools) dating from Neolithic, Early Helladic and Middle Helladic times.
Mega Spileo Monastery
  • 35m
OPTIONAL or alternative to Ancient Corinth (for visitors that have already visited Corinth): A cliff-hanging monastery with amazing views of the gorge through which your train will pass.
Odontotos Rack Railway
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
About 120 years ago Odontotos rack railway started from the seaside town of Diakopto parallel to the river and climbed to Kalavrita through bridges and tunnels. The little train incorporated so well to the natural environment that it seems that it had always been there. The way it was constructed did not put a strain on the ecosystem of the gorge. Using stone and wood from the area the technicians' work is so perfect that someone may think that the nature worked on its own.
Athens
  • 2h
Back to Athens and to your base/accommodation. You can optionally be dropped off at your cruise ship or even the airport. Do remember that you can combine this tour with several other unique sites of the Peloponnese with our most popular being the 5-Day Peloponnese tour.
