About this experience
This is NOT Mycenae! This is Ancient Messene! A stunning, genuinely spectacular setting & site that lies in a serene valley, surrounded by the Arcadian Mountains on one side and the Mediterranean Sea on the other.
Why this tour?
☼ You will be exploring the 4th century BC Ancient Messene in the region of the Mythical Peloponnese.
☼ The remains of this tremendous ancient city are complete and very well-maintained.
☼ A site that has never been destroyed or covered by later settlements and is located in an unspoiled area.
☼ Off-the-radar & off-the-beaten-path!
The remains of this tremendous ancient city include a grand ancient stadium, an ancient theatre with a capacity of up to ten thousand spectators, a fountain house, public buildings such as sanctuaries, temples, statues, a gymnasium, springs, and an agora that hosted political gatherings and many other everyday life events.
We cross the Corinth Canal and of course, enjoy the included lunch/drinks overlooking the beautiful site.
