Overview

Depart from Athens with a private executive car or mini van and drive through the fertile plain of Boeotia, crossing the town of Thebes, world-renowned for its tragic story of King Oedipus. Reach Thermopylae and marvel the landscape and monument of King Leonidas. Continue through the picturesque towns of Livadeia and Arachova on the slopes of Mount Parnassus.

Upon arrival at Delphi, explore the "Omphalos" ("Navel of the Earth") and marvel at the ruins of an ancient sanctuary that grew rich as the seat of the oracle. Take your time and admire the views of a landscape of unparalleled beauty.

See the remains of the Sanctuary of Apollo Pythios, and visit the Treasury of the Athenians.

Later on your private driver will recommend a nice place to have a great meal, overlooking the sea and the rich olive tree valley. As you return, stop in Arachova to stretch your legs and grab a coffee, pastry, tea or wine.

Leonidas Monument

Stop at the battlefield of Thermopylae, where the Battle of Thermopylae was fought between an alliance of Ancient Greek city-states, led by King Leonidas I of Sparta, and the Achaemenid Empire of Xerxes I. It was fought in 480 BC over the course of three days, during the second Persian invasion of Greece. Marvel the Leonidas monument that was erected in 1955 and created by the sculptor Vasos Falireas. The brass sculpture of the Spartan King with his spear and shield is truly amazing. Next to the monument of Leonidas, lies the information center of Thermopyale battle in which you can watch a very informative video of about 10 minutes.
