What you can expect

  • Depart from Athens and journey north through some of central Greece’s most striking scenery: coastal stretches, river valleys and rising mountain corridors that gradually narrow into the legendary pass of Thermopylae.

    Stand on the exact ground where Leonidas and his 300 warriors stood in August 480 BC. Listen as your expert military host brings to life the three-day titanic battle phase by phase: the initial deployments, the holding actions, the repeated assaults, the role of elite troops and the critical breach that sealed the defenders’ fate.

    Examine the terrain, visibility and space exactly as Leonidas and his 300 warriors experienced them. In the afternoon, transition from battlefield to countryside with a visit to Oinotria Gea Winery, set amid the vineyards of central Greece.

    Surrounded by rolling hills and carefully tended vines, enjoy a guided wine-tasting that offers a quieter, reflective contrast to the intensity of the battlefield. Unwind, reflect and absorb the experience of the day’s events and appreciate another dimension of Greek land shaped by time and tradition.
