Overview

Discover the rich history and breathtaking landscapes of the Peloponnese with our exclusive tour. Your journey begins with a visit to the awe-inspiring Corinth Canal, continues through the storied ruins of Ancient Corinth, and culminates with an ascent to the magnificent Acrocorinth fortress. Tailor your adventure even further by choosing an extra destination that suits your interests. This private, air-conditioned trip is guided door-to-door by an English-speaking driver-guide, so you can simply relax and take in the scenery between stops. It’s a comfortable, flexible way to see three of the Peloponnese’s most rewarding sights — or more, if you choose to extend it — within a single Athens layover.

Three ways to extend it

  • Wine tasting at Semeli Estate — from €165 pp (6h total). Corinth Canal, Ancient Corinth and Acrocorinth, then a tasting at one of the Peloponnese’s best-known wineries. Adults 18+ only; minimum tasting fee €25 pp paid at the estate. Ancient Corinth entrance €15 pp not included.
  • Olive-oil tasting at OLEOSOPHIA — from €156 pp (6h total). The same Corinth core, finished at an olive garden with a guided tasting. Adults 18+ only; minimum tasting fee €70 pp paid at the farm. Ancient Corinth entrance €15 pp not included.
  • Mycenae & Nafplio — from €210 pp (6h total). Skip Acrocorinth and continue deeper into the Peloponnese instead — see the dedicated Mycenae & Nafplio tour.

Questions travellers ask

Can we do a tasting on a layover? Yes — both tasting variants run 6 hours door-to-door, the same as the base trip; you need an 8-hour layover.

Are the tastings suitable for kids? The tasting venues are 18+; with children, book the base Corinth trip or Mycenae & Nafplio.

What’s not included? Site entrance fees (Ancient Corinth €15 pp) and the tasting fees listed above.
