EPIDAURUS & MYCENAE

08:00–10:00 | From modern Athens to the Peloponnese

Departure from Athens by coach. As the city gives way to open roads, the landscape shifts to hills, farmland, and olive groves. The drive sets the pace for the day — moving steadily from present-day Greece into its ancient past.

10:00–11:45 | Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus

Guided visit to one of the best-preserved ancient theaters in the world. Guests explore its perfect symmetry and learn why its acoustics are still considered unmatched. Standing at the center of the orchestra, the scale and precision of ancient engineering become strikingly clear.

11:45–13:15 | Through the Argolid countryside

Departure toward Mycenae. The route crosses the Argolid plain, with wide views of vineyards, low mountains, and rural villages. The scenery feels calm and timeless — a fitting transition between two great ancient sites.

13:15–14:30 | Lunch break near Mycenae

Free time to enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. A relaxed pause before returning to history, allowing time to rest and take in the quieter rhythm of the region.

14:30–16:15 | Mycenae

Guided tour of the legendary citadel of Mycenae. Visitors pass through the iconic Lion Gate, walk alongside the massive Cyclopean Walls, and explore the royal tombs. Stories of King Agamemnon and the Mycenaean world bring myth and archaeology together in a powerful setting.

16:15–18:15 | Return to Athens

Departure from Mycenae and return to Athens. The afternoon light softens the landscape as the journey comes to a close. Guests arrive back in the city with lasting images of ancient theaters, monumental stonework, and legendary kings.
