Begin your full-day tour by walking across the wide coastal plain where, in 490 BC, Athenian hoplites defeated a vastly superior Persian force. Accompanied by expert military advisors, hear the story of the war as the battle is reconstructed in detail, hour by hour: terrain, deployments, formations, command decisions, and the decisive moments that turned the tide.

Continue your journey north towards Thermopylae. Make a relaxed stop at the seaside town of Kamena Vourla where you can enjoy a break amid striking coastal scenery — an ideal setting to reflect, discuss, and absorb the experience before making your way to Thermopylae.

As you arrive at the battle site of Thermopylae, be prepared to feel the power of history at the world’s most legendary last stand. Walk on the same ground where Leonidas and his 300 Spartans stood in August 480 BC, as your expert military advisors bring to life the nail-biting, three-day titanic battle, before making your way back to Athens late in the afternoon.
