  2. Day 2

    Tolo to Olympia

    Start with breakfast at your hotel, then walk around the charming village of Tolo and spend time at the local beaches. Later, head inland to Nafplio, Greece's former capital, where you can grab lunch at a traditional tavern and walk through the old town. From there, you'll drive to Olympia by either heading through the mainland or taking the scenic route along the Gulf of Kyparissia. You'll arrive at your hotel in Olympia during the afternoon, giving you time to get settled.

Visit the sanctuary of Apollo and see where the famous oracle operated, plus spend time at the museum. The drive to Kalambaka is lengthy, so plan for short stops in smaller cities along the way. You should arrive before dark to see the Meteora complex with its monasteries on rock formations.

    Kalambaka to Athens

Once you finish, drive back to Athens with optional stops in cities you might have missed on earlier days. End the day by returning your rental car at Athens Airport to complete your trip.

    · June 7th, 2025
    Driving around Greece was awesome. We stayed off the toll roads so saw parts of the country we never would have seen from a highway. Our only suggestion for the tour operators would be to list more attractions along the way. Google maps and Android Auto was a godsend. We also upgraded our car to automatic which was well worth the 75 euros.
