Corinth Canal, Isthmia, Greece Depart from and drive along the coast line until we reach the Corinth Canal where we will make a brief stop.
The Corinth Canal connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It cuts through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth and separates the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, arguably making the peninsula an island.
ls considered one of the great engineering accomplishments of Greece.
The canal was dug through the Isthmus at sea level and has no locks. It is 6.4 kilometres (4 mi) in length and only 21.4 metres (70 ft) wide at its base. The canal was constructed from 1880 to 1893, however, it is something that shipowners and captains had dreamed about for some 2000 years before it became a reality. 10 minutes
Temple of Olympian Zeus, Athens, Greece The Temple of Olympian Zeus, also known as the Olympieion or Columns of the Olympian Zeus, is a former colossal temple at the center of the Greece capital Athens. It was dedicated to "Olympian" Zeus, a name originating from his position as head of the Olympian gods. Construction began in the 6th century BC during the rule of the Athenian tyrants, who envisaged building the greatest temple in the ancient world, but it was not completed until the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century AD, some 638 years after the project had begun. During the Roman period the temple -that included 104 colossal columns- was renowned as the largest temple in Greece and housed one of the largest cult statues in the ancient world. 15 minutes
Leof. Vasileos Konstantinou, Athina 116 35, Greece The Panathenaic Stadium or Kallimarmaro is a multi-purpose stadium in Athens, Greece. One of the main historic attractions of Athens,it is the only stadium in the world built entirely of marble.
A stadium was built on the site of a simple racecourse by the Athenian statesman Lykourgos (Lycurgus) c. 330 BC, primarily for the Panathenaic Games.The stadium was excavated in 1869 and hosted the Zappas Olympics in 1870 and 1875. After being refurbished, it hosted the opening and closing ceremonies of the first modern Olympics in 1896. It was used for various purposes in the 20th century and was once again used as an Olympic venue in 2004. It is the finishing point for the annual Athens Classic Marathon.It is also the last venue in Greece from where the Olympic flame handover ceremony to the host nation takes place. 10 minutes

The guide service was an easy process to book and the owner e-mailed and called to make sure everything was just right. On the day of the tour they were prompt, on time, and the van was very comfortable. Both the driver and the tour guide were very knowledgeable, professional and a lot of fun to spend a full day with. I would definitely utilize this service if I were to go back to Athens. They were great!

This tour was a highlight of our trip to Greece! We were honestly excited about getting to the islands and didn’t put much thought into Athens / Corinth but this tour changed our minds. Our driver and private guide were incredible! Our tour guide knew so much biblical history which was a great surprise since it was important to us to learn more about Mars Hill and Corinth from that perspective. Wish I could give 10 stars!
