Nice view of the Corinth canal and the city. We had enough time for each stop and take as much time to take good pictures.

We were a group of 8 and we had a great tour with Tas. We really enjoyed all the sites and learned a lot. We had a fabulous typical Greek lunch overlooking ancient Corinth, that was totally worth the wait.
