   The Isthmus of Corinth is a narrow strip of land that connects mainland Greece with the Peloponnese. It separates the Aegean Sea from the Ionian Sea and has been of great strategic importance since ancient times. In 1893, the Corinth Canal was completed, cutting through the isthmus and allowing ships to avoid the long and dangerous journey around the Peloponnese. The canal is about 6.4 kilometers (4 miles) long, 21 meters (70 feet) wide, and is carved through steep limestone walls. Although too narrow for modern large ships, it remains a popular route for smaller vessels and tourist cruises. The Isthmus has played a key role in Greek history, trade, and transportation, and the canal is considered an impressive feat of 19th-century engineering.
   We will make a 30-minute stop here, giving you the opportunity to admire the stunning view and take photos from the Isthmus Bridge.

   The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus is one of the most well-preserved classical Greek theaters and a masterpiece of ancient architecture. Built in the 4th century BC by the architect Polykleitos the Younger, it is located in the sanctuary of Asklepios in the Peloponnese. The theater is renowned for its exceptional acoustics and harmonious proportions. With a capacity of around 14,000 spectators, it was originally used for musical and dramatic performances in honor of the healing god Asklepios. Even today, a whisper on stage can be heard clearly in the highest seats. The theatre continues to host performances, especially during the annual Epidaurus Festival, attracting audiences from all over the world. It stands as a testament to the artistic and engineering achievements of ancient Greece.
   We will wait for you here for one hour, so that you have time to visit the Ancient Theatre and the Museum of Epidaurus.

   Kenchreai was the eastern port of ancient Corinth, located on the Saronic Gulf. It played a vital role in Corinth's trade network, connecting the city to the Aegean Sea and the wider Mediterranean world. The port thrived especially during the Roman period, serving as a hub for merchants, travelers, and religious pilgrims. Archaeological excavations have revealed warehouses, temples, villas, and a Christian basilica, offering insight into the daily life and multicultural nature of the settlement. Kenchreai is also mentioned in the New Testament, as the place where the Apostle Paul had his hair cut before traveling to Syria (Acts 18:18). Today, visitors can explore the ruins near the modern village of Kechries, where remnants of breakwaters and ancient buildings still stand by the sea, echoing the harbor's long and prosperous history.
   We will wait for you here 30 minutes to visit the old port ruins.
