60 minutes here
Corinth Canal
This canal is probably the oldest major construction work in Greece (dated 1880-1893) that really changed everything in transportation, allowing ship interconnection between the Ionian and the Aegean Sea.
30 minutes here
Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos)
Next stop is the small town of Ancient Corinth, where you can visit its impressive archaeological site.
15 minutes here
Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos)
The archaeological site includes: Temple of Apollo: one of the earliest Doric temples in the Peloponnese and Greek mainland. Bema of Saint Paul (Roman Forum): according to tradition, the site of Saint Paul’s (also known as the Apostle of the Nations) trial was the Bema, a large elevated rostrum standing prominently in the center of the Roman Forum of ancient Corinth, wherefrom the city’s officials addressed the public. Archaeological Museum: the museum houses a large collection of artifacts of the local archaeological site and smaller sites in the neighboring area. The artifacts, which were systematically recovered beginning in 1896 by the Corinth Excavations, illustrate much about Ancient Corinth through Greek, Roman and Byzantine rule.
60 minutes here · Admission not included
This is the acropolis of ancient Corinth, a typical example of castle architecture built in successive phases, as it was the fortified citadel of both ancient and medieval Corinth. Situated at the top peak of the Acrocorinth, lies the Temple of Aphrodite, the protector deity of the city of Corinth.

Heraion (Sanctuary of Hera) in Perachora
Only two kilometers far from Lake of Vouliagmeni (Heraion), just below an iconic lighthouse, lies the archaeological site of Heraion. The Heraion of Perachora was a sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Hera. In addition to a temple of Hera, which is of unusual construction, the remains of a number of other structures have also been found, including an L-shaped stoa, a large cistern, dining rooms, and a second potential temple remnants.

Excellent private tour
Beautiful itinerary! We are all well travelled and have high standards, and we were all very happy with this experience. Our driver was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and more than happy to answer questions. Highly recommended!

The best way to spend a day, away from Athens!
Daily trip not to be missed. Professional driver with a big smile on his face, knew how to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. Places we visited were amazing, I couldn’t believe I would experience so much beauty and history in only one day. The Heraion archeological site so close to the lighthouse was picturesque, my personal favourite. Highly recommended.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your comments. We are truly honoured!

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $485 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lake Heraion Ancient Corinth Full Day Private Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
