Visit the famous Corinth Canal, which is four miles long, 70 feet wide and has sloping sides 170 feet in height. It connects the Ionian and Aegean seas to provide a maritime shortcut.
Your next stop will be at Ancient Corinth. The ruins in this area are a surprising mix of an ancient 6th-century BC Greek city and a 44 BC Roman city — the latter was built after Julius Caesar placed a colony on this desolate site.
See the ruins and excavations of both, including where the Christian Basilica, the starting lines of a Greek racetrack, a sacred spring with its bronze lion's-head spouts, and the elaborate Roman fountain of Peirene were located.
Notes:
Use of an audio headset (included) will enhance your tour experience. Wear sturdy non-skid walking shoes.
