Description

Discover the legendary world of ancient Greece on this full-day tour to Mycenae and Epidaurus. Your journey begins at Mycenae, one of the most prominent cities of the Late Bronze Age. As you pass through the iconic Lions Gate, you’ll step into a realm of history and myth, where the great King Agamemnon ruled and where the epic stories of the Trojan War unfolded.


Guided by an expert in ancient Greek history, you’ll explore the ruins of this once-mighty citadel, from the royal tombs to the ancient palace. Learn about the fascinating history of the Mycenaeans, their impressive architectural achievements, and their role in shaping Greek civilization.


The adventure continues as you visit the famous Theater of Epidaurus, a UNESCO World Heritage site celebrated for its stunning acoustics and grand scale. Seating nearly 14,000 spectators, this ancient theater has hosted performances of iconic plays by Sophocles, Euripides, and Aeschylus. Test the acoustics yourself and stand on the stage where Greek tragedies once captivated audiences.
