On this affordable Greece tour, you'll travel to Olympia, the legendary home of the Olympic Games, and Delphi, where people visited in ancient Greece to seek the advice of the Oracle. But that’s not all…you'll experience modern Greece as well, as you cross over one of the world's longest cable-stayed bridges, the spectacular Rion-Antirion Bridge, linking the Peloponnese peninsula to the Greek mainland.
