Ancient Corinth and Canal View

Your journey begins with a scenic drive to the Corinth Canal, an unforgettable sight that dramatically slices through the landscape. Nearly four miles long, this remarkable feat of engineering separates the Peloponnese from mainland Greece, and offers a superb photo opportunity from above as you take in its sheer limestone walls and vivid blue waters far below.

Continue on to Ancient Corinth, once one of the most powerful and prosperous cities of the ancient world. In the time of St Paul, Corinth boasted a forum larger than Rome’s, lined with temples, theatres, baths, shops and grand public buildings. During your guided visit, explore the atmospheric ruins, including the beautifully paved Lechaion Road and the impressive Doric Temple of Apollo, dating back to the 6th century BC. A visit to the on‑site museum brings the story of this remarkable city to life, showcasing fascinating artefacts uncovered during excavations.

After exploring the site, enjoy a relaxing buffet lunch at a local restaurant, sampling regional flavours in a welcoming setting. There is also a short amount of free time to browse the shops located just outside the archaeological site, perfect for picking up a souvenir or enjoying the local atmosphere.
