Enjoy a serene boat ride through the astonishing Corinth Canal and discover the treasures of Ancient Corinth.  

Although it’s one of the smallest canals in the world joining two bodies of water, the Corinth Canal is a dramatic sight with its sheer, limestone walls soaring over 300 feet high. Separating the Peloponesse from the mainland, it’s only four miles long, 75 feet wide, and 26 feet deep. 

Enjoy a sumptuous Greek themed buffet lunch with local wine and explore the atmospheric remains of Ancient Corinth, whose forum once rivalled that of Rome. And soak up the remarkable views from the 6th century Temple of Apollo.

You’ll have a short time for shopping just outside the Ancient Corinth site.
