Mycenae, the legendary kingdom of the Atreides, is situated upon a small hill-top on the road leading from the Argolic Gulf to the north (Corinth, Athens, etc.). The site was inhabited since the Neolithic times (about 4000 BC) but reached its peak during the Late Bronze Age (1350-1200 BC), giving its name to a civilization which spread throughout the Greek world.
After you will travel west along the scenic coast until we reach the Corinth Canal, where we will stop briefly to take in the magnificent views. A short drive will bring us to the ancient town of Corinth, which was once one of the richest cities in the known world. Here, we will have the chance to visit the large Agora and Apollo's Temple. After exploring the city, we will make a brief stop in the ancient port of Kechreai before returning to Athens, where the tour will come to an end in time for lunch.
