Ancient Greece tour

[HalfasleepChrisintheMorning]

DS13 is very into Classics and we want to do Greece at Easter for a week. He has a lot of energy (far more than me!).
We loved a week in Rome a year ago ago doing all the sights including a day trip to Pompeii and Herculaneum.
I had found flights with Jet2 from Manchester but there isn’t a week’s worth of sightseeing in Athens itself.
It looks as though we could have 4 nights in Athens doing the main sights and trips to Cape Sounion and an islands day cruise.
Lookkng for a 3 night tour to include Delphi, Mycenae, Epicurus, Corinth.
Olympia looks to add a lot of driving - not sure it’s worth it.
Any recommendations for hotels or tours please?

This is a good itinerary for Ancient Greece...
There should be day trips bookable for Delphi & co. from Athens - might be easier.

It's also well worth going to Olympia if you can manage! It's fantastic and very different from the other sites you are proposing. I would ditch the island tour in favour of this

A tour that starts in Athens and does a circular tour taking in Delphi and Olympia and Mycenae as well as a few other sites easily accessible from that route isn't too much to fit into 5 days although the same itinerary would happily stretch into 8 or 9 days to allow each site to be absorbed in more depth. Don't be put off by the travelling between sites - it's an important part of the process to pause and absorb and consider what you have seen, so if you are just staying in one area you don't get those intervals and I think actually don't get as much out of it.
