Here's what you'll see in the shows:

Athens & Delphi
While Athens sprawls, its historic core survives.  After climbing the majestic Acropolis, prowling the Plaka, and cheering Greeces best folk dancers, we take some easy trips outside the
city.  We make a pilgrimage to the famed oracle of Delphi and tour a beautiful medieval monastery.  Then its off to the Peloponnesian Peninsula where we scope out Nafplions charming port and visit the epic ruins of King Agamemnon in the ancient capital of Mycenae.  Along the way, we investigate local superstitions and sample tangy specialty treats.

TIP: Finding great Greek food, traditional and contemporary.      more

Greek Islands
On the Greek Islands we get familiar with the ferries as we island hop the Aegean.  Sun-drenched, upscale and exotic, Santorini sits on the rim of an ancient, but still active, volcano.  At one end of the island the archeological site at Akrotiri uncovers a city frozen in time by the volcano's eruption 3,600 years ago.  The island of Naxos offers serenity, a low-keyed pace and bargain accommodations.  Its massive marble quarries and kouros sculptures were the toast of ancient Greece.  We catch some R&R on trendy Mykonos, and then head to sacred Delos an uninhabited island covered entirely with ancient ruins, and the place where the great sun god Apollo was born.
