    INFORMATION
    What to See and Do in Eretria

    Ancient Eretria

    Ancient Eretria was once a major naval power and home to an important philosophical school before being destroyed in 87 BC by the Roman general Sulla. The most fascinating site is the House of the Mosaics (370 BC), featuring pebble mosaics depicting mythological scenes.

    Ancient Theatre of Eretria

    The Ancient Theatre is perhaps the city’s most significant landmark. Built in the early 5th century BC after the Persian invasion, it flourished during the 4th century BC and could accommodate approximately 6,300 spectators.

    Island of Dreams

    Located next to Eretria, the “Island of Dreams” can be reached on foot, as it is connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land—hence its nickname, Pedestrian Island. Its beaches are crystal clear and beautifully blue.

    Wineries

    The Lykos family vineyards produce award-winning wines, including Malagousia, combining traditional methods with innovative techniques. Visitors are welcome to enjoy guided tours and tastings of three to four wines at the winery, located 4.5 km west of Eretria.

      Athens 4 days Group Tour from Germany

      Thank you very much for the group to Athens! They had a great time. They were very enthusiastic about the trip & guide Jason. he swimming/beach stop after Corinth was a big plus. They enjoyed the nature as addition to the city and culture. Always good to add that when visiting Corinth.

      The location of the hotel was very good, so a bus transfer in the evening was not always necessary. They could have easily come back via the metro to the hotel. That would have saved us real money.

      Thanks again and looking forward to all the coming groups!

      Αthens, Santorini and Corfu
      My Kids and I loved the trip except for our lost baggage from the Aegean airlines upon arrival at Athens at the start of the trip.Loved all the sightseeing. Tour guides and Pick up services were awesome!! Tour guides were very knowledgeable in their area and history of the city and my kids and I loved that. They answered all our questions. Pick up services were always on time.I just wish I had a little more time in Corfu to do the boat tour as I had planned. Wasn’t able to accomplish that. Loved the wine tasting, Oia and Fira in Santorini. Thank You so much for helping me plan this trip. Great memories made on this trip!!Savita
