Wonders of Ancient Greece

Start & end in Athens 7 days Up to 45

About this trip

Seven days through mainland Greece, tracing the sites that shaped ancient history and mythology, from Athens to the mountains of Meteora.

You move from the Acropolis to the Peloponnese, taking in Epidaurus and Mycenae, then on to Olympia and Delphi, before finishing among the rock-top monasteries of Meteora. It is a lot of ground covered, but the pace is easy and the whole thing is fully guided.

This one suits families and groups who want the big historical names covered without having to plan the logistics themselves.

What travellers actually say

Worth it if you value expert guides and scenic highlights. Think twice if accommodation quality and meal standards matter equally to you.

  • Guides consistently praised for deep historical knowledge and engaging storytelling about Greek monuments.
  • Driver skill on narrow mountain roads and hairpin turns repeatedly noted as impressive and reassuring.
  • Accommodation inconsistent; most hotels rated 3-star despite brochure claims, except final night.
  • Included meals underwhelming; several travellers skipped them entirely to eat independently instead.
