Ancient Corinth, Acrocorinth and Perachora

  • Meet your tour guide and begin the tour in Corinth, a city-state (polis) on the Isthmus of Corinth, the narrow stretch of land that joins the Peloponnese to the mainland of Greece, roughly halfway between Athens and Sparta.

  • Visit Acrocorinth, the acropolis of Ancient Corinth, a monolithic rock overlooking the ancient city of Corinth.

  • See Saint Patapios of Thebes, the patron saint of dropsy. Saint Patapios is well known for the miracles he performed in the past and still does nowadays, which are recorded in full detail in the historical archives of the monastery, which also maintains a large library.

  • Head to the Heraion of Perachora, a sanctuary of the goddess Hera situated in a small cove of the Corinthian Gulf at the end of the Perachora peninsula.
