Ancient ruins, olive oil and thermal baths – explore all this and more in Greece on an eight-day adventure. With airport transfers for your convenience, you’ll see the well-preserved 4th-century BCE Theatre of Epidaurus, wander through the ancient ruins of the Acropolis and visit a local ouzo distillery. Explore the archaeological sites of Acrocorinth and Corinth, learn about virgin olive oil (considered liquid gold in Greece) and enjoy a traditional Greek lunch made with fresh local ingredients. Hear how the town of Nafplio was founded on a guided walking tour, cross the Korinthian Canal and enjoy plenty of free time to create your own adventure!Summer temperatures can be extreme in many regions of Italy (over 40°C), which can be uncomfortable. It’s essential to use sun protection, wear layers to combat the heat and drink plenty of water. Please consider the time of the year you wish to travel and your suitability for that season.
