Detailed program

We leave Athens at 9:00 a.m. sharp and at around 10:30 a.m. we arrive at the new Archaeological Museum of Thebes where we will enjoy a conducted tour at the museum's exhibition which houses a multitude of artefacts, representing millennia of continuous human activity in Boeotia. Our next stop is the small village Askri where the hospitable team of the Muses Estate will welcome us and show us around their winery and cellars. Just afterwards we' ll have the chance to enjoy a wine tasting experience of their exquisite wines in the beautiful parlor specially decorated with harvest tools used in the old times.

We leave the Muses Estate and we meet the owner of the remarkable family business Samartzis Estate Wines who takes on the rest of the day and leads a very intresting tour to the Valley of the Nine Muses, its archeological sites and the vineyards of the estate where the unique Greek wine variety Mouchtaro is produced. There we take the opportunity not only to admire the vineyards from a distance but also walk through them and learn valuable information regarding their cultivation. The scenery of the small old chapels that immersed among the vineyards in combination with the ruins from the ancient Greek era create a valuable sense of tranquility.

After the tour in the valley and the moments of relaxation in this truely awesome environment we continue our trip in order to enjoy a delightful lunch, either by the sea or the mountain, accompanied by the quality wines of the Samartzis Estate.

We depart for Athens at around 5:00 p.m. full of pleasant moments in the beautiful Greek country side of Viotia...
