This tour takes you on a scenic drive through the fertile plain of Boeotia, passing through towns rich in history, such as Thebes, known for its connection to the tragedy of King Oedipus, and the charming towns of Levadia and Arachova (where a short stop is made on the return trip).
You’ll then arrive in Delphi, the legendary center of the ancient world, once considered the “Omphalos” or “Navel of the Earth.” Situated on the slopes of Mount Parnassus, the site offers breathtaking views and is home to the ruins of the Sanctuary of Apollo, which housed the famous Oracle. The Delphi archaeological site is an iconic part of ancient Greek history.
After exploring the ruins and museum, you’ll enjoy a traditional lunch in the modern village of Delphi. Following your meal, you’ll return to Athens, retracing the same scenic route, filled with historical landmarks and stunning landscapes.
