Sojourn Bicycling Vacations

Menu

6 Days / 5 Nights | Rating: Intermediate | Start : Athens | End: Athens

Continuing our effort to design trips for the discerning traveler, we have selected less-traveled routes with high-end hospitality and local flavor, bringing you to Greece’s Peloponnese Peninsula. Discover Greece with Sojourn on a 6-day Peloponnese Bike Tour. The Peloponnese, a sun-drenched peninsula in southern Greece, linked to the mainland by the Corinth Canal, is famed for its ancient ruins, medieval towns, olive groves, and dazzling coastlines. Known as the “mythical heart of Greece,” it was the cradle of the Mycenaean civilization and remains one of the country’s most captivating regions.
Your adventure begins in Athens before heading to Mycenae and the remarkable Theatre of Epidaurus. Cycle through rolling hills and seaside villages, uncover the medieval charm of Monemvasia, and bask in the turquoise waters of Elafonisos Island. Each day reveals a blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. Whether pedaling past olive groves, strolling cobbled streets, or savoring authentic Greek cuisine, this tour offers the perfect balance of cycling, exploration, and leisure.
