Points forts

This is NOT Mycenae! This is Ancient Messene! A stunning, genuinely spectacular setting & site that lies in a serene valley, surrounded by the Arcadian Mountains on one side and the Mediterranean Sea on the other. Why this tour? ☼ You will be exploring the 4th century BC Ancient Messene in the region of the Mythical Peloponnese. ☼ The remains of this tremendous ancient city are complete and very well-maintained. ☼ A site that has never been destroyed or covered by later settlements and is located in an unspoiled area. ☼ Off-the-radar & off-the-beaten-path! The remains of this tremendous ancient city include a grand ancient stadium, an ancient theatre with a capacity of up to ten thousand spectators, a fountain house, public buildings such as sanctuaries, temples, statues, a gymnasium, springs, and an agora that hosted political gatherings and many other everyday life events. We cross the Corinth Canal and of course, enjoy the included lunch/drinks overlooking the beautiful site.

Itinéraire

  1. 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.

    15 min

  2. An ancient city that has the rare advantage of not having been destroyed or covered by later settlements. This landscape combines the mountainous majesty of Delphi and the lowland riverine tranquillity of Olympia, with the looming bare limestone mass of Mt Ithome and its acropolis, and the low, fertile valley around the ancient city.

    2 h

  3. Back to Athens to be dropped off directly at your accommodation

About Athènes

Athènes dresse l'Acropole au-dessus d'une capitale moderne étendue, où ruines antiques, ruelles en pente et longues soirées en taverne se côtoient.

Le Parthénon couronne l'Acropole, flanqué de l'Érechthéion et de sa tribune des Caryatides, et le musée de l'Acropole, au pied de la colline, présente les sculptures trouvées sur le rocher. Autour, l'Agora antique, le temple de Zeus olympien, l'arc d'Hadrien et le stade panathénaïque en marbre permettent de parcourir facilement la ville classique à pied.
