Athens · CORINTH DAY TRIPS
26 reviewed
The Corinth Canal, ancient Corinth where Saint Paul preached, and the citadel above the old city, all within easy reach of Athens. Below are the best Corinth day trips: which pair the canal with Mycenae or Nafplio, what each costs, and which suit a half day versus a full one.
Corinth Canal and Ancient Corinth from Athens with VR + audio guide, plus Kechries port photos. Air-conditioned minibus, big value.
“Well organised trip, guided well by Angela. Delighted that we also briefly stopped at the Acrocorinth fortress. We overran on time (which was absolutely fine by me).”

“Yiannis was very personable and catered the trip to our interests. We had lots of time to explore sites after hearing interesting facts, myths, stories and legends! 100% recommend this tour!”
Private biblical day trip from Athens to Ancient Corinth and the Isthmus Canal. Door-to-door pickup, A/C Wi‑Fi car, Paul-focused stops.
“We felt this tour was more of a sightseeing than biblical tour. It was good info on Paul but not much. I felt we knew more about Paul than our guide. I guess it depends on the guide you get. The Corinth canal was cool to see and the port also neat.”

“Theodore was our guide: great insights, very knowledgeable and an excellent storyteller He made the tour an even greater experience, Thank you”
Athens day trip to Corinth Canal, Ancient Mycenae and Nafplio, with guided Mycenae site tours and free time in a classic seaside town.
“The highlight for me was to see Ancient Corinth & the areas Paul walked. I appreciated Sophia pointing out the many sights along the way with the history. Our driver (Christoph) delivered us safely to our destinations & navigated the Athens city traffic expertly coming back. I choose not to join the meal in Nafpoli based on reading the reviews on here. I had a delicious cup of coffee & took a snack; using the time to walk this quaint seaside town. There are plenty of options to eat there.”
Walk Apostle Paul’s Corinth trail on a private 5–6 hour tour from Athens. Canal, Agora, Bema, museum, Acrocorinth, church mosaic.
“My family and I just went on a private tour of Following the Footsteps of Apostle Paul with Russlan as our driver/guide. We very much enjoyed ourselves. The tour was terrific- we got sufficient information of the area and its significance to St. Paul, the latter which was important to me. Russlan was an excellent guide from the start. He texted me early on coordinating pickup from Piraeus port, then even picked us up earlier than planned when we got off the cruise ship early. He dropped us off at the airport afterwards. All on time and no delays. I highly recommend him as a guide and this tour. Time…”

“I can recommend this tour in ways that I could not recommend the Acropolis tour. There are not a lot of slippery steps. Not a lot of rushing. Plenty of time to breathe in information and to go on your own. Kudos!”

“Giorgos Kalantzis was a wonderful driver and guide. It was an excellent way to hear about and follow the footsteps of Paul. It was a long, hot day but well worth the effort. For the parts of the tour where we explored on our own Giorgio was always within easy reach when ready to return. It was great to have a cool car to get back to between stops. Georgio was very friendly and knowledgeable. We highly recommend this tour!”
