Overview
This two-day pilgrimage culminates at the fabled site of Delphi, where the Oracle once whispered prophecies through vestal virgins to those who sought wisdom. Amidst the crumbling ruins, the remnants of temples and amphitheaters speak volumes of a civilization that believed in the power of divination.
With each step, let the whispers of the past draw you closer to the secrets that lie dormant within these sacred grounds. Ascend the slopes of Mount Parnassus, where the ancients believed the gods resided, and gaze upon the breathtaking vista that stretches before you, from mountains to sea.
This tour also includes visits to the charming ski resort village of Arachova with its stone houses and winding roads, a visit to the 10th century Byzantine monastery, Ossios Loukas, near the village of Distomo.
We pride ourselves on helping travelers get off-the-beaten path and getting an authentic experience. Please communicate with your driver any special requests or wishlist items.
