Itinerario
Nuestra primera parada es en el impresionante canal de Corinto, donde el conductor nos describirá su interesante y variada historia, desde la antigüedad hasta el presente. El canal de Corinto conecta el golfo de Corinto en el mar Jónico con el golfo Sarónico en el mar Egeo. Atraviesa el estrecho istmo de Corinto y separa el Peloponeso del continente griego, convirtiendo la península en una isla. El canal se cavó a través del istmo a nivel del mar y no tiene esclusas. Tiene 6,4 kilómetros (4 millas) de longitud y solo 21,4 metros (70 pies) de ancho en su base, lo que lo hace intransitable para muchos barcos modernos. Desde lo alto, puede disfrutar de la mejor vista del istmo de Corinto y admirar las empinadas paredes de piedra caliza mientras observa los barcos que navegan por el canal.
Aquí podrás visitar el yacimiento arqueológico y el museo de la antigua Corinto, una de las ciudades más importantes de la Grecia antigua. Aquí tendrás una hora para explorar el templo de Apolo, el templo de Octavia, las termas, la Bema donde San Pablo se dirigió a los corintios, el complejo de la fuente de Peirine, el teatro, el Odeón romano... Dentro del yacimiento arqueológico podrás visitar también el museo con exposiciones de la zona.
El Museo Arqueológico de la Antigua Corinto se construyó entre 1931 y 1932 con la intención de exhibir las numerosas excavaciones arqueológicas recientes. El museo está ubicado dentro del sitio arqueológico de la Antigua Corinto, Grecia, y se encuentra bajo la jurisdicción de la 37.ª Eforia del Servicio Arqueológico Griego. Los aspectos clave del sitio arqueológico de la Antigua Corinto incluyen: • Manantial de Hadgimoustafa • Calle Lechaion • Basílica • Fuente de Peirene • Stoa • Ágora • Odien • Otros templos • Teatro
El Templo de Apolo en Corinto fue construido en el año 550 a. C.
La última parada es la Acrópolis de la antigua Corinto, llamada Acrokorinthos, una roca monolítica que estuvo ocupada continuamente desde la época arcaica hasta principios del siglo XIX. Aquí tienes una hora para visitar el castillo. Disfrutarás de la increíble vista a 575 metros sobre el nivel del mar y explorarás las tres puertas del castillo, los manantiales del Alto Pirineo, el templo de Afrodita que fue cristianizado como iglesia en la cima...

Yiannis was prompt for pickup at our chosen location. He was friendly and informative. He tailored our experience to our preferences. He was flexible and enhanced our knowledge of Corinth, Ancient Corinth and the Corinth Canal. Would definitely tour with him again in the future. When we were done, he allowed us to choose our drop off location. It was a great half day tour! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and appreciated the flexibility to tailor the experience to your preferences. Your kind words mean a lot, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We hope to welcome you back to Greece in the future for another memorable tour. Safe travels, and thank you again!
We were picked up at the cruise ship terminal and then dropped at a hotel near the airport which was perfect. It took about 1 hour 10 minutes to get to the Corinth Canal. Our guide/driver Nikos really knows all of Greece and its history. He gives a running commentary and could answer any question we asked. After seeing the canal, we went on to see the ruins of ancient Corinth. There are ruins of a temple and theater, but they have uncovered as much of them as some other sites. The archeological museum is well worth the 15 euro admission. It has some of the most complete statues, plaques, figurines etc. That we have seen. Then we went up to Acrocorinth which is a castle and acropolis above the museum. The site is 575 meters up a rough coblestone road. We made it half way in 93 degree heat. This still gave us fantastic views from the sea to the mountains. Nikos preps you on everything you will see and we were in a very comfortable van. This is a great tour for seeing something outside of Athens.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed visiting the Corinth Canal, Ancient Corinth, and Acrocorinth, and that Nikos's knowledge and commentary made your experience even more memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Greece for another adventure in the future! Warm regards, The Team
This is a wonderful tour away from the city. Yiannis was a great guide. The canal was spectacular and his stops were very good for snacks and restrooms. The old ruins were interesting but wish he had given us more direction there or could have accompanied us for more detail.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour, the canal, and Yiannis' guidance. We hope to welcome you again soon!
We were traveling for our honeymoon and were picked up by Yiannis for our drive into Corinth! We travelled with two others couples in a van, with great air conditioning! We had an amazing time. He made sure we had snacks and water during our trip and we saw all of the wonderful history Corinth has to offer. He shared historical facts and stories along the way. We even made a small stop on the way back to see a special underwater bridge. We had a wonderful time and would recommend it to many others!
Thank you for choosing to celebrate your honeymoon with us! We're delighted to hear you had such a wonderful experience with Yiannis and enjoyed exploring Corinth.

it didn't happen, there was a mistake with the booking ,tried to rectify it but was completely ignored
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you were disappointed with your experience. According to our records, your booking was confirmed for 3 July. On the scheduled day, we had arranged both the driver and the vehicle to pick you up for your tour. However, at the last minute, you informed us that you were not in Greece and that you would be arriving on 15 August. We showed you that your reservation had been made for 3 July. Unfortunately, this was not a case of confusing the date by one day, where we might have been able to accommodate you. Instead, the requested tour date was 43 days after the original booking date, which made it impossible to honor the reservation as booked or reschedule it at such short notice. We always do our best to assist our guests whenever possible, but in this case, we had already allocated our staff and vehicle based on the confirmed booking date. We appreciate your understanding and wish you all the best with your future travels.
Great half day trip, and made it back in plenty of time for a different half day trip for sunset at Cape Sounion (highly recommend!). The driver was very good and gave us some explanation as he dropped us off at each site.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the trip and that everything fit perfectly into your day. We appreciate your kind words about our driver and hope to welcome you again soon!
My girlfriend and I had an amazing time visiting Ancient Corinth! The entire experience was unforgettable, and a big part of that was thanks to our driver, Thodoris. He was friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable throughout the trip. What really made the tour special was how much he shared with us about the history of the area. His knowledge and passion brought Ancient Corinth to life and made us appreciate the site ev more. . We highly recommend Thodoris to anyone looking for a memorable and informative tour. Thank you for a fantastic day—we'll definitely book with you again!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your girlfriend had such an unforgettable experience exploring Ancient Corinth. It means a lot to know that Thodoris helped make your day so special. His passion for the history of the area and his commitment to providing a friendly, comfortable, and informative experience are exactly what we strive for, so your kind words will mean a great deal to him. Thank you for choosing us and for your recommendation. We look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable adventure in Greece!
