Continue to Epidaurus with its 4th Century BC theatre, famous for its astonishing acoustics. Next, we'll visit the town of Nafplion (naf-fi-OWN), a modern seaside resort watched over by the mighty Palamidi Fortress. The narrow picturesque alleys and neoclassical buildings make for great photo-ops.

Ancient Delphi, located on the slopes of Mount Parnassus in Greece, was a major religious and cultural center in antiquity. Revered as the site of the Oracle of Apollo, it attracted visitors from across the Greek world seeking prophetic guidance. Pythia, the high priestess, delivered cryptic predictions believed to be inspired by Apollo.

You will also visit the 'Treasury of the Athenians and Delphi Museum', which hosts valuable pieces of art like the astoundingly well-preserved bronze charioteer.

Proceed to the picturesque village of Arachova, located in the foothills of Mountain Parnassus, well-known for its attractive hand-woven carpets, rugs and quilts. Let's head to Kalambaka for dinner and overnight at our hotel.

After breakfast, we'll make our way back to Athens.

But first, we'll visit the National History Museum of Meteora and Mushroom Museum for a guided tour including truffle hunting in the forest with a specially trained dog. We'll end with a little picnic in the forest to try truffle pasta with wine or soft drinks.

As we continue our drive towards Athens, we'll pass through the picturesque towns of Trikala and Lamia. Our journey includes a poignant stop at Thermopylae,

the site of the legendary battle where King Leonidas and his 300 Spartans made their heroic stand. This was the famous Battle of Thermopylae and is depicted in the movie called '300'.

We'll return to Athens airport to take the domestic flight to Santorini. On arrival, we'll enjoy a tour of the capital of the island Fira, to walk and browse in the local small shops and cafes. Then you will be transferred to your 5-Star luxury Hotel Nous Santorini for check-in.

This morning is at leisure. But later this afternoon, it's our sunset Catamaran cruise around the magical Caldera (a volcanic cauldron).

We'll sail the sea route from Red Beach to White Beach, to the Black Mountain and the Hot Springs. What a spectacular sunset. It's great to be alive!

As night falls, a sumptuous dinner is served complete with wine and dessert. Marvel at the shimmering stars in the sky and twinkling lights on the island by night!
