What To Expect

Thermopylae

Thermopylae, Thermopylae, Phthiotis Region, Central Greece Thermopylae is a place in Greece where a narrow coastal passage existed in antiquity. The Battle of Thermopylae was fought between an alliance of Greek city states led by King Leonidas of Sparta and the Persian Empire of Xerxes. The Gates of Fire: Deriving from the Hot sulphur Springs and in Greek mythology the cavernous entrances to Hades. The monument of King Leonidas: 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. Hotsprings: The baths of Thermopylae could be described as a paradise of healing spas. High end hydrotherapy facilities focusing on balneotherapy not only as a treatment for specific ailments, illnesses and injuries but also to promote general well-being.

Thermopylae Museum

Thermopylae Museum, Thermopylae Greece Thermopylae museum: The innovative museum is dedicated to the 480 BC battle that changed the course of Greek history and western civilization as we know it today. Duration: 30 minutes In antiquity, the pass at Thermopylae, between Mt Kallidromos and the Maliakos Gulf, was the only practical route for large armies to reach southern Greece and thus the site of many a skirmish. The most famous battle occurred in 480 BC, when 300 Spartans under King Leonidas, along with 700 Thespians, delayed the vast army of Xerxes in a legendary last stand, following the betrayal by Ephialtes, who showed the Persians how to outflank the Greek forces.

We had a great day with Bill. He was very prompt and looked out for our every need throughout the day. We enjoyed the short film at Thermopylae but were disappointed with the hot springs. The itinerary description of the hot springs made it sound exquisite! But what we saw when we arrived was nothing like what we’d imagined. Bill helped us take some nice family pics there, and then we moved on. The rest of the day in the Delphi area was great! And the lunch where Bill took us was very good, with a beautiful view. We made a brief stop in Arachova, but there wasn’t much to see or do there. Since it was low season for them, it was very quiet. All in all, a day our family will not forget. Many thanks to Bill and Yomadic Tours!
Beautiful Greece

We had a great time getting to see the Museum of Delphi, the Temple of Apollo and the battlefield of the last stand of Thermopylae! Our driver (Chris) entertained us all day in the car with stories of Green history and Greek mythology! We truly enjoyed the experience.
