Classical Greece: Delphi, Olympia, Meteora & the Cog Railway

A private five-day run through some of Greece's most significant ancient sites, from the Peloponnese to Delphi and Meteora. It's a history-heavy route, but the pace is easy and the group is just you (and whoever you're travelling with), so guides can adjust as you go.

Along the way you take in Corinth, Mycenae, Epidaurus and Olympia, then head north to Delphi and the mountain villages before finishing among the monasteries of Meteora. There's also a scenic detour on the old Cog Railway between Diakopto and Kalavrita, and a stop at the Cave of the Lakes.

Suits families or small private groups who want the big classical sites covered properly, without the logistics of doing it independently.
