I am now in Athens and never been here before, I and my husband really enjoyed the time here in Athens, we arrived last Saturday and will leave on Monday going back to Australia...I was watching your videos from Sydney and I liked it.... thank you for the info for Athens, it was really useful

Delphi is a magical place. It's a fairly steep hike up to the stadium but well worth it. We went there for one night and then on to Meteora for two nights. Another magical place and I thought a pretty easy drive. The Greek roads we were on were all very good.

Halkida with the castle may be also a good day trip

I guessed Nafplio, Corinth and Delphi lol! Those are three of my must-sees when I (eventually) make it to Greece. Thank you for the other recommendations!! I love love love the ancient, historical side of Greece - but I sure love a good beach too!! I swear I'm gonna go there on a 2 week vaca and just end up staying forever 🇬🇷💙

Edit - my other two guesses were Meteora/Kalambaka and Olympia!

did you know that there is a bust of emperor Nero carved into the Roman part of the canal? it's at the entrance on the Corinth bay where the Romans started the canal.

I really wanted to go see the Temple of Poseidon when I last visited Greece (2018), but it didn't work out. My plan was to rent a car (maybe a convertible, 'cause why not??) and drive down the "Athens Riviera, " stopping along the way to eat, shop and sunbathe. Have you driven there? Are there lots of places to do these things, or is it more of a residential area the whole way? It looks like an easy drive too. Thank you for this informative video, and glad to see you're doing well after your recent health issues.

Hello! If you have several days and can choose 2 places to visit only, between Meteora, Nafplio and Delphi which two would you choose? Thanks

If we have to pick one - Cape Sounion or Delphi?
