Our first stop is going to be the peaceful monastery of Hosios Loukas, representing the second golden age of Byzantine art (11th -12th century). Of special importance is its golden mosaic decoration and fine architecture.

Setting off with a drive along the national highway heading towards northern Greece and coming across the plane of Thieves and the city of Levadia. Soon after we will be on the slopes of Mount Parnassus before reaching the mythical Delphi.

Then we will leave for the site of Delphi, an ancient Greek sanctuary with a PanHellenic character devoted to the god Apollo. It acted as an Oracle and was thought to be ‘the naval’ the center of the world and continues to be a symbol of Greek cultural unity. The extraordinary location allows you to view the Greek mountains and two more sites, the Gymnasium and the secondary sanctuary of Athena Pronea. After visiting the site we will have lunch and overnight here.

On location you will visit the mystical temple of Apollo where Pytheia spoke to the oracles, the ancient theater and the stadium.

The site also has a museum where you will find the famous charioteer and Gold Ivory statue.
