Description

Begin with a scenic drive from Athens to Livadia, a picturesque town nestled among hills and springs. Explore the enchanting Krya Springs, where crystal-clear waters flow past stone bridges and small waterfalls. Take a leisurely walk and snap some photos. Next, enjoy free time to wander through Livadia’s charming old town, with its traditional shops, cobbled streets, and relaxed pace of life. Continue through scenic countryside roads to the Osios Loukas Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site perched on the slopes of Mount Helicon. Admire its remarkable Byzantine mosaics, stone architecture, and sweeping valley views. Leaving the monastery behind, head north toward Thermopylae. En route, pause at the Leonidas Statue — an iconic landmark honoring the legendary Spartan king. It’s an ideal spot for photos and a brief insight into this famous battle site. Then, unwind at the Thermopylae Hot Springs, where warm, mineral-rich waters flow through a landscape steeped in history. Enjoy a refreshing swim or simply dip your feet while taking in the mountain views. Conclude your day in the seaside town of Kamena Vourla, where you can relax by the coast, stroll along the promenade, and optionally have a meal at a local taverna.
