Day/overnight trip suggestions from Athens
We (a 50s something couple) will be traveling late may to Athens on way back from Istanbul, staying four nights in Greece. We'd be interested to hear suggested day and/or overnight trips from Athens... ie Delphi or one of the islands... what's the best use of our time? a long car trip to Delphi or a ferry to one of the islands? thanks for any guidance.

We also did a bus day-trip to the Temple of Poseidon at Sounion, a fabulous location overlooking the sea.

theres a great overnight excursion available
from athens you go to delphi for the afternoon and then head to kalambaka for the evening
stay overnight and in the morning go to meteora monasteries...absolutely spectacular ..google and see for yourself
then you travel back to athens ..get back early evening
easy trip and gives you a feel for inland greece
