Glamorous Greek Honeymoon

DAY 1 THE ACROPOLIS

The ancient Greeks believed that when the gods created humans, they split their souls between two bodies, thus creating soulmates. This morning you will travel back to antiquity as you explore the magnificent monuments of the Greek capital during an electric bike ride through its historic district. The private e-bicycle tour will take you past the Acropolis, through the neighbourhoods of Thission, Psiri, Monastiraki, Plaka, the stadium and the Zappeio, and then via the ancient agora before joining Mount Filopapou. Following this, you’ll have the chance to delve even deeper into the city’s past with a visit to the Acropolis, once the heart of ancient Athens. Your tickets will give you priority access so you can skip the queues and learn about how people lived and loved thousands of years ago.

DAY 2 MYCENAE AND EPIDAURUS

Back to the Ancient Greeks today as you visit two of the most important archaeological sites in the Peloponnese with an expert guide. At Mycenae, you will visit the near perfectly preserved city which legend has it was once capital to Agamemnon (of Trojan War fame) and remains one of the best sites in Greece for getting under the skin of life in an Ancient Greek state.

From here, you will move on to Epidaurus, where you will find the ruins of the Sanctuary of Asclepius - the Greek demigod who was said to have healing powers. People would travel for hundred of miles to sleep in his sanctuary, in the hope that he would come to them in a dream and tell them how to cure their ailment. As this evening is the last of your honeymoon, we have arranged dinner a deux under the olive groves this evening, the perfect way to top off a wonderful post-wedding break.
