At a 735 meters altitude, the beautiful town of Kalavryta not only vividly portrays the Greek countryside, but also brings a historic place related to the liberation of Greece, back to life.

This is a true gem of a tour. The Pelopponesian peninsula is stunning. My driver Georgios was willing to teach everything from Greek language (how to read and pronounce), history of the areas and gyros vs souvlaki and the proper way to order it. The tour itself was a hidden gem. There were very few foreign tourists and mostly Greek people on holiday which made me feel like I was truly experiencing Greece as a local. The rack rail train trip was simply stunning and well worth it for the views. Kalavryta is a gorgeous town with great coffee. The scenery everywhere was stunning but the Cave Lakes were magical. I will visit again when the water is higher. The museum at the caves was very educational. I highly recommend this trip for anyone ago wants to see a less than common part of Greece. Ευχαριστώ (thank you) Georgios.
We had great time and enjoyed the train trip up the gorgeous. Alexis was very helpful and provides various insights to enlighten our experience. I recommend this trip for the experience of the mountains/countryside, trip through gorgeous and the cave experience.
This was such a great trip, we loved the cave of lakes and the town of Kalavyrta and the train ride was lovely. Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful, full of information and made helpful suggestions to make the most of our trip. Would absolutely go again.
We took the train and the view on the railroad is awesome, and Corinth canal is very impressive. Cave of lake took hours to get there and only 10 mins visit but it’s really worth it.
Thank you very much for your review! We appreciate your feedback. The historic village of Kalavryta, the scenic route of the Rack Railway "Odontotos" and the amazing Cave of Lakes make this tour one of the most interesting to do in Greece all year round. We will be very happy to see you again in Greece for more Tours in Greece. Evangelos
The train ride was great. Helena accompanied us on the train, discussing what we were seeing. Scenery was spectacular, with snow covered mountains and following the river. The Holocaust Museum was quite informative, with Helena adding information as we looked at the exhibits. Our driver, Alex was always ready when we were ready to move on. Helena went way out of her way to help me solve a problem. I was very grateful for her assistance.
