Glories of Greece

You'll stand beneath the Acropolis in Athens, tracing carved stone and weathered columns before following Greece’s ancient roads towards Olympia. Here, a local chef shows you how to prepare cool, garlicky tzatziki, golden cheese pies and crisp zucchini balls, with the tang of Greek cheese in every bite. A journey to Meteora follows, where monasteries sit high above Kalambaka on immense pillars of rock. At Olympia, you'll walk through the birthplace of the Olympic Games, near the ruins of the Temple of Zeus. In Mycenae, you'll wander between walls built from vast Cyclopean stones before running your hands over cool clay at the Mycenae Pottery Studio.
