Mainland Greece Tours & Trips
Imagine walking into Epidaurus ancient theatre where the acoustics still work perfect. Greece’s mainland doesn't mess around with history. Meteora's monasteries balance on rock pillars that seem impossible, Olympia shows you where the Games actually began, and Delphi spreads its ruins across a mountainside. Nafplio's harbor area invites wandering, and Athens' Acropolis dominates exactly like it should.

Very well organized and tour director was excellent. My concern was that there were so many people from different hotels which took so long to pick up and drop off. Also another group joined us half way and the bus was packed and made it so hard visiting the sites which were so packed with people and tourists. The group should have been smaller. Also some of the hotels were not that great which was disappointing as in the past TourRadar had excellent hotels.
