The visit goes through the heart of Athens, starting from the Panathenaic Stadium, where the first modern Olympic Games were held in 1896. It would traverse some of the most famous sights, such as the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian's Arch, the Parliament Building, Memorial for the Unknown Soldier, Academy, University, National Library, and Constitution Square (Syntagma). At the Acropolis, marvel at the ages of Architectural Wonders of the Golden Age of Athens: The Propylaea, Temple of Athena Nike, and Erechtheion, and conclude your experience here at the sacred Parthenon—a fusion of the physical and the spiritual, a true ambassador of how to light the soul with order.

Setting out early in the morning, you will cross over the Corinth Canal, from which you will continue to the renowned Mycenae, named a UNESCO World Heritage site. The legendary home of Agamemnon with its imposing Cyclopean walls, the famous Lions Gate, and the royal tombs will be explored; Nafplion, which is in Argolis, was the first capital of Greece. The charming little town nestled at the foot of a cliff dominated by the mighty Palamidi Fortress would allow for a short exploration. The journey continues to the ancient theater of Epidaurus, which is especially famous for its extraordinary acoustics. In closing, you will visit Olympia and round off your expedition.
