The Classical City of Thebes - While we were on a two-week group trip with Globus to take us to Athens, Corinth, Delphi, and Olympia, we also wanted to see Sparta and Thebes. We added two days onto our vacation and then contracted with Viator for separate trips to the last two cities. Our driver, George Lalos, picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Thebes. He was very friendly and accommodating during our time with him. The relatively archaeological museum was very nice and we visited the small amount of remaining ruins from the ancient city to include the Elektra Gate. We also visited the Karababa Castle site. Afterward, we all had lunch together at a restaurant in Chalkida. Thebes is only about 54 miles northwest of Athens. The total amount of time we spent on this excursion was 6.5 hours.
