Itinerario
El Canal de Corinto conecta el Golfo de Corinto con el Golfo Sarónico en el Mar Egeo. Corta a través del estrecho istmo de Corinto y separa el Peloponeso del continente griego, posiblemente haciendo de la península una isla.
La antigua Corinto estuvo habitada en el período Neolítico (6500-3250 aC), pero la gran prosperidad comenzó en el siglo VIII. Corinto era una ciudad-estado y para los cristianos, Corinto es bien conocida por las dos cartas de San Pablo en el Nuevo Testamento, Primera y Segunda a los Corintios. Corinto también se menciona en los Hechos de los Apóstoles como parte de los viajes misioneros del apóstol Pablo.
OPCIONAL: Acrocorinto, "Alto Corinto", la acrópolis de la antigua Corinto, es una roca monolítica que domina la antigua ciudad de Corinto y el Golfo de Corinto. Es la más impresionante de la acrópolis de la Grecia continental. Con su suministro seguro de agua, la fortaleza de Acrocorinto se utilizó repetidamente como última línea de defensa en el sur de Grecia porque dominaba el istmo de Corinto, repeliendo la entrada de enemigos por tierra a la península del Peloponeso.
Degustación de vinos OPCIONAL: Nemea es famosa por el sitio antiguo con el impresionante Templo de Zeus, pero también es una conocida región productora de vino (¡un pequeño valle de Napa!) Con los viñedos más grandes de los Balcanes. Si elige esta opción, necesitará que lo recojan antes a las 7:30 am en lugar de a las 8:30.
Kalavrita y sus alrededores son un centro turístico para todas las estaciones. ¡Este es tu lugar para almorzar! Exploramos el centro de la ciudad a pie antes o después del almuerzo. Esta hermosa ciudad se encuentra al pie del monte Chelmos y es una visita obligada para los atenienses durante los meses fríos del año por su centro de esquí, ¡pero no solo! Kalavrita es un lugar de ensueño con casas de piedra, pequeñas plazas, callejones encantadores, cafés pintorescos y tabernas justo al lado de los enormes plátanos que dan sombra. Un destino ideal para aquellos que buscan combinar su amor por la naturaleza con su estado de ánimo romántico.
La Mítica 'CUEVA DE LOS LAGOS' tiene algo exclusivamente singular que no existe en otras cuevas conocidas. Una rara creación de la naturaleza con misteriosas galerías y extrañas formaciones de estalactitas. LA MÍTICA 'CUEVA DE LOS LAGOS' tiene algo exclusivamente singular que no existe en otras cuevas conocidas. Una rara creación de la naturaleza con misteriosas galerías y extrañas formaciones de estalactitas. Una creación natural única que presenta 13 lagos en cascada de varios tamaños y formas, tres niveles diferentes y una temperatura constante durante todo el año de 16-17°C. Se han explorado alrededor de 1980 metros de la cueva, aunque en la actualidad solo 500 metros están abiertos a los visitantes. Aquí se han encontrado huesos fosilizados de varios animales, así como importantes hallazgos arqueológicos y antropológicos (incluyendo cerámica y herramientas) que datan del Neolítico, el Heládico Temprano y el Heládico Medio.
OPCIONAL o alternativa a la antigua Corinto (para visitantes que ya han visitado Corinto): un monasterio colgado de un acantilado con impresionantes vistas del desfiladero por el que pasará el tren.
Hace aproximadamente 120 años, el tren de cremallera Odontotos partió de la ciudad costera de Diakopto, paralela al río, y ascendió a Kalavrita a través de puentes y túneles. El pequeño tren se incorporó tan bien al ambiente natural que parece que siempre estuvo allí. La forma en que se construyó no puso una tensión en el ecosistema de la garganta. Usando piedra y madera del área, el trabajo de los técnicos es tan perfecto que alguien puede pensar que la naturaleza funcionó por sí sola.
Regreso a Atenas y a su base / alojamiento. Opcionalmente, puede dejarlo en su crucero o incluso en el aeropuerto. Recuerde que puede combinar este recorrido con varios otros sitios únicos del Peloponeso, siendo el más popular el recorrido de 5 días por el Peloponeso.

We took the tour with Panayiotis and had the best day! He was very knowledgeable and everything we experienced was perfect. The train ride was lots of fun. The local food where we ate was amazing. The canal was so beautiful. We gathered so much extra information about Greece within our day. This was by far our favorite excursion while in Greece.
Dear Michael & Tonya. Panayiotis mentioned that he enjoyed the tour with you and that you had been great company to travel with. This is very important for our private tours and our guides! We would love to see you again. Let us show you more of "real Greece," which is not just Athens, Mykonos, and Santorini! Thank you for the great review and for taking this tour with our boutique agency!
This was an excellent full day adventure for our family of adult children. There was beautiful scenery along the drive and each of the three stops offered unique insights into the region. Nikos was a terrific host for us and set up a delightful Greek lunch for us. It was time well spent.
Thank you, Robert! It was fun exploring with all of you. Enjoy the islands! NG
I loved this excursion so much. They really tried to make the experience personal. Our guide was very interactive with us and educated us on his couture. Theo was beyond amazing.
Great review. Theo is a great guide! All our team is great as guides, but as people too, but it always works better when we travel with responsive people like you. Thank you for taking this tour with us!
We were greeted promptly at our hotel at our pick up time by our driver and guide, Panayiots. He spoke excellent English and we found ourselves chatting the whole day. The tour was well thought out and the day went smoothly. We seemed to miss the crowds by arriving at the sights a little earlier. We were disappointed that the train trip wasn’t available as they are currently working on the line, however we visited a local winery and we had the best white wine I’ve ever tasted! Nikos and his team were always available to answer questions and kept us informed. You won’t be disappointed with this tour and booking through this company.
Thank you very much, Catherine. Your guide, Panayiotis, is a young person but has the knowledge and potential to become a great tour leader. He described you as very open and easy to communicate. This allowed him to offer more than the standard "itinerary". Once again, thanks for the very nice review.
We had the pleasure of booking a private tour with Panayiotis, an exceptional guide. From start to finish, our guide's warm and friendly demeanor, extensive knowledge, and genuine care made the tour truly unforgettable. Whether exploring a magnificent cave or strolling through the city's enchanting streets, his passion for his job and his country shone through, creating an extraordinary experience that I highly recommend.
Thank you, Rita. Parayiotis is an exceptional young tour guide with great motivation and -most importantly- he loves what he does. His communication skills are unique and he did not forget to mention that you were very pleasant to travel with. We thank you once again for choosing our agency for your tours and transfers.
We had a fabulous day with Nikos who was very easy company. Nikos shared his knowledge of the areas and made the trip as personable as possible. We loved seeing the Corinth Canal but be prepared as it was busy! Ancient Corinth was great with enough time to walk about the relics and visit the museum. My favourite was the rail journey up to the ski town. Picturesque and very relaxing. Nikos also ensured we had great seats on the train. Was nice walking through the village and hearing its history and lunch was amazing! We were a little disappointed in the caves but I think this is because we have visited many wonderful caves in the past. A great day that allowed us to see different parts of Greece with ease.
Thank you very much for the great review. You are correct about the caves! They are not at their best if there has not been enough rain to"flood" the "lakes" from the dripping stalactites and create the humid atmosphere that makes this site colorful & unique. If you have also seen many caves ... It was great traveling with you!
Fantastic full day tour. Picked up at hotel at stated time, by the amazing Panayiotis, travelled to Corinth canal for short visit, then onto ancient Corinth. Had plenty of time there to wander through museum and walk around the ruins. Moved onto Diakopto to catch narrow gauge railway up to kalavryta. We're bit early so Panayiotis took a short detour to an amazing viewpoint above Diakopto. Train ride was amazing. Arrived at Kalavryta where Panayiotis was waiting and took us for a delicious lunch. After lunch visited the mega spilaio monastery built into the mountainside. Finally travelled to the cave of lakes, which was a spectacular end to the day. Drove back to athens and dropped back at hotel. Our guide Panayiotis was brilliant. So knowledgeable, polite and great company.
Amazing review. We are extremely happy that you have appreciated Panayiotis' efforts. He is one of our best guides and tour leaders. Your communication has been great and you and your family were a definitely great "fit" to what we have to offer. THANK YOU!
On May 20, 2023 took a private tour outside of Athens, Greece to the Cave of Lakes, Ancient Corinth, Odontotos Railway, Great Lunch, etc. The Guide for the day Panos was friendly, helpful, informative and everything else you would want for a guide for the day. The manager of Eudaimonia Private Tours, Nikos, was helpful and constantly in contact with us as our tour date approached. I very much recommend Eudaimonia Private Tours/
Thank you very much, Arthur. All our guides mentioned that you were great to travel with.
A great tour guide and a excellent way to see Greece. Tour was outstanding, knowledgeable, and very exciting.
Thank you very much for remembering and taking the time to review your experience with us.
This was our first time to Greece and were a little hesitant however Nikos was amazing with communicating before during and after we arrived to Greece and even went above and beyond to make this trip special for us. Theo was our driver and we knew exactly who to look for as we were sent a picture of him. The whole trip was amazing and Theo was very knowledgeable and informative along the way. It was just my husband and I and we enjoyed the intimate feel of that experience as well. Would highly recommend Nikos company for this tour or any other of the tours they offer.
Thank you very much! We all felt that you were very nice people to travel with. Your review is great.
