Itinerary

Day 1

Begin your journey with a drive through Levadia and the picturesque village of Arachova, known for its vibrant, multicolored carpets. Arrive in Delphi, situated at the foot of Mount Parnassus and framed by the twin rocks of the Phaedriades. Revered as the center of the ancient world, Delphi was home to the most famous oracle of ancient Greece. Mythology tells of Zeus sending two eagles from opposite ends of the earth to meet at Delphi, marking it as the “navel of the world.”

Explore the archaeological site and museum, which showcase Delphi’s rich cultural and religious history as a Pan-Hellenic sanctuary and the site of the Pythian Games, second only to the Olympics. Dinner and overnight stay in Delphi.

Day 2

Enjoy a leisurely morning in Delphi, surrounded by its stunning landscape. In the afternoon, travel across the Thessalian Plain, known as Greece’s agricultural heartland, to reach Kalambaka. Upon arrival, take a short tour of the village before having dinner and staying overnight in Kalambaka.

Day 3

Visit the awe-inspiring Meteora, a name meaning “suspended in air,” which refers to the remarkable rock formations hosting a community of 24 monasteries. These monasteries, Greece’s most significant after Mount Athos, are perched atop towering cliffs and were historically accessible only by nets or retractable wooden ladders.

The monks cultivated the fertile valleys below, growing crops like grapes, corn, and potatoes. By the late 14th century, the Grand Meteoron Monastery emerged as the dominant community. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Meteora is celebrated as a unique cultural and spiritual phenomenon.

After visits start the drive back to Athens passing through Thermopylae (Photo Stop). This visit can take place sometimes the second day( general notes).

The Perfect Greek Vacation

Me and my Girlfriend took a trip to Greece with Antelope Travel and it was nothing short of perfect. Their driver and staff were super helpful, polite, and warm. We gave them a few ideas and they turned it into an amazing itinerary that was both packed with fun things to do and good recommendations and flexibility to allow us to discover our destinations in Greece to the fullest. We highly recommend their services and we will be going back to them for our next Greece vacation!

Fabulous trip and attention to detail!

Anthony Alagiah with Antelope Travel planned the perfect family trip for us in June 2023. Anthony was a pleasure to work with, he communicated in detail and was very responsive to any questions I had and even stayed in touch while we were in Greece.
This was our first visit to Greece and he patiently guided me during the planning process and planned perfect itineraries for Athens, the islands and the mainland so we could experience a variety of different parts of Greece. Keeping three teenage boys engaged and interested isn't always easy but all of Anthony's tours, tour guides and activities worked perfectly for all of us!
We had many air, land and sea transfers and Anthony's planning and his partners ensured that everything went smoothly for us.
We were referred to Anthony from friends and I highly recommend him! I have now referred other friends to him, as thanks to his expertise, we had a fantastic family trip to Greece.

Amazing Travel Agency

Anthony and his team did an amazing job organizing our eight day trip to Mykonos and Santorini. They chose two excellent hotels that met our budget, and booked car transport and inter-island ferries for us. He also gave a bunch of great restaurant recommendations and was able to help us book a few last-minute items, including a wine tour! He also had local representatives on each island who we were able to call with random specific asks (e.g., last minute club reservations on Mykonos).

The only thing we'd change is that we wish we had been able to spend even MORE time in Greece! In fact, we're already hoping to take another trip next year, and if we do we'll definitely be using Anthony and team again!

Having worked with other travel agents in other regions who do not do nearly as good a job, we can honestly say we are really happy with our Antelope experience!

Detail Details Details

We worked with Anastasia at Antelope travel, who was amazing. She arranged a four hour tour in Athens and then 3 nights in Mykonos and 3 nights in Santorini. It was a truly amazing trip. All the guides hired by the travel agency (Athens and Delos day trip) were knowledgeable and friendly. The transfers and transportation was timely and efficient. The hotel in Mykonos (Myconian Imperial) was a real treasure.....we loved it. I rarely work with travel agents because I think I can do it on my own, but this trip was truly marvelous because of Anastasia's efforts. We want to thank her for all her help!!

Incredible Trip!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Anthony & his entire team from the very start of our planning our vacation to Greece all the way through of traveling back home to Chicago. Anthony & his team ensured our entire trip was seamless. We started in Athens for 24 hours, then to Mykonos for 4 days and then Santorini for 4 days. The planning & attention to detail made the whole trip one of the best travel experiences of our life. Anthony & his team were referred to us by a couple of other friends who had also worked with them for their vacations to Greece over the past few years & we will continue referring Anthony to anyone we know who is traveling to Greece because of our incredible experience!
