Starting from the Kallimarmaro Stadium we follow this path the one of the most remarkable cities of the Global History
The Marathon Tomb located close to the road, 4 km from the town of Marathon, it is also known as the Tomb of the Athenians. It is the final resting place of the 192 Athenian soldiers who died in the Battle of Marathon. The battle took place in this fertile plain and resulted in the defeat of the Persian army by the hands of the Athenians. It is considered to be one of the most significant moments in European history. Listen to your guide as he recounts the story of this bloody battle that took place here in 490 b.C, during the first Persian invasion of Greece. Learn how these fallen hoplites were cremated and buried in this tomb as a reminder of their sacrifice and bravery.
Your tour will carry on to the site where the myth of the marathon race originates from.

It's always very nice to visit the places you ve heard so many times but never saw in person. The most amazing surprise was Manos Grizas , not only he welcomed us with bagels and bottled waters but he was amazing on explaining to us all the history behind the highlights. We rode on a journey passing through different ages . Highly recommended

We had such a great experience! Manos is a polite and dedicated guide who will go above and beyond to facilitate your needs and ensure a memorable journey. From pick-up to drop-off, he is professional, ensuring all the practicalities for the trip are taken care of, and you feel in good hands. The car is beautiful and brand new, so you are essentially grand touring throughout Greece!
Manos is very knowledgeable, has an unforced pleasant storytelling style, and adds many exciting elements to his tale. He enthuses you, and you want to check out all the places he mentions, so the moment you arrive at the different destinations of the tour, you have this incredible background story that makes each location come alive.
We learned so much during the journey with Manos and had great fun! So happy we did this! We will definitely come back for the grander tours this man has in his portofolio. Thank you so much!
