Highlights
Combine the most sacred site of the ancient world with one of the most sacred sites of the modern world in this leisurely-paced, three-day journey that goes from Athens to Delphi to the hanging monasteries of Meteora and back again. This spirit quest includes visits to the 10th century Byzantine church of Ossios Loukas and the charming ski resort village of Arachova before entering the realm of Apollo, the oracle of Delphi, once considered to be the center of the universe.
Dine in traditional mountain tavernas and allow yourself to drink in the scenery while your driver entertains you with stories and ensures that you arrive at the gravity-defying hanging monasteries in time for a sunset photo. Spend the rest of your time exploring and being present in this truly awesome place. We’ll take care of the rest.
We pride ourselves on helping travelers get off-the-beaten path and getting an authentic experience. Please communicate with your driver any special requests or wishlist items.
