Activity Description
Start your day early in the comfort of your private vehicle on your way to Ancient Corinth.
Your first stop will be at the Corinth Canal, which connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea and is a sight not to be missed! Snap an Instagram-worthy photo and continue to the heart of Ancient Corinth, where you will admire the Agora, the stunning Temple of Apollo and many other important ancient and Roman sights.
Following your Ancient Corinth guided tour, your driver will take you to Nemea, famous since antiquity for its wine production. There, you will have the opportunity to enjoy a tour of a local winery with the help of a wine expert and revel in a unique wine-tasting experience.
You will try 4 different labels accompanied by platters with a variety of cheeses and cold cuts, spinach pie with feta cheese and stuffed grape leaves served with fresh, seasonal vegetables. At the end of the tasting, indulge in a semi-sweet dessert wine accompanied by dark chocolate and raisins.
