Overview

Our tours are about people and we have always been good with people! We skip the obvious places and we do not compromise the quality of the tour for any reason.
Let's visit some amazing locations that most people miss out on, with a full-day private day trip.
With your private group, see the off-the-beaten-track sites with your driver and guide. Journey to the Cave of Lakes; Odontotos Rack Railway, passing through Vouraikos Gorge; the Corinth Canal; and a choice of Ancient Corinth or the Mega Spilaio Monastery. Wine tasting is an option too!
Let your fully qualified private driver/tour leader treat you -and join you- to an authentic Greek experience, complete with an amazing "farm to table" lunch at a remote top of the mountains town. An experience for foodies! No fixed or touristy menu!
It's a unique & very authentic tour, away from the luxury offerings, all in the peaceful natural environment and beautiful scenery at the central planes of the Mythical Peloponnese.

Acrocorinth

OPTIONAL: Acrocorinth, "Upper Corinth", the acropolis of ancient Corinth, is a monolithic rock overseeing the ancient city of Corinth and the Corinthian Gulf. It is the most impressive of the acropolis of mainland Greece. With its secure water supply, Acrocorinth's fortress was repeatedly used as a last line of defense in southern Greece because it commanded the Isthmus of Corinth, repelling foes from entry by land into the Peloponnese peninsula.

Odontotos Rack Railway

About 120 years ago Odontotos rack railway started from the seaside town of Diakopto parallel to the river and climbed to Kalavrita through bridges and tunnels.The little train incorporated so well to the natural environment that it seems that it had always been there. The way it was constructed did not put a strain on the ecosystem of the gorge. Using stone and wood from the area the technicians' work is so perfect that someone may think that the nature worked on its own.
