- Leonidas Monument - Stop at the battlefield of Thermopylae, where the Battle of Thermopylae was fought between an alliance of Ancient Greek city-states, led by King Leonidas I of Sparta, and the Achaemenid Empire of Xerxes I. It was fought in 480 BC over the course of three days, during the second Persian invasion of Greece. Marvel the Leonidas monument that was erected in 1955 and created by the sculptor Vasos Falireas. The brass sculpture of the Spartan King with his spear and shield is truly amazing. Next to the monument of Leonidas, lies the information center of Thermopyale battle in which you can watch a very informative video of about 10 minutes.

Embark on a journey from Athens in a private high-class vehicle or a mini-van, driving through the lush valley of Boeotia and passing Thebes, a city famous for the tragic tale of King Oedipus. Get to Thermopylae and admire the scene and King Leonidas’ monument. Traverse the scenic towns of Livadeia and Arachova located on the arms of Mount Parnassus.
When you reach Delphi, tour the site called ‘Omphalos’ or the ‘World’s Center’ and be in awe of the remnants of a historical sanctuary that prospered as the home of the oracle. Take a moment to soak in the scene of unmatched grandeur.
Witness the residue of Apollo Pythios’ Sanctuary, and tour the Treasury of the Athenians. Afterwards, your private chauffeur will suggest a top-notch restaurant for a pleasant meal with a view of the sea and the lush valley of olive trees. On your way back, take a break in Arachova to refresh yourself with a cup of coffee, a snack, tea or wine.
