Activity Description

Enjoy a half-day private excursion to Marathon, a place of rich history and natural beauty

 

Famous for the ‘Battle of Marathon’ that took place in 490 B.C.E., Marathon is one of the most beautiful places in Attica. The drive along the impressive coastline is a beautiful experience in its own right with gardens, vineyards, olive groves, and wild vegetation. The same is true for the artificial Marathon Lake with an impressive marble dam.
