產品介紹
You will be picked up from your hotel or the port and in less than 10 minutes you will be in the square of the Ypapanti, the largest church and patron saint of the city, from where your tour begins.
The selection of the starting point of our tour is not by chance. In 1986 a large earthquake exposed the ancient city of Kalamata (Farai), hiding just under the sanctuary of Ypapanti’s Church. Parts of the fortification wall of the ancient city, statues and pottery sherds, slept for centuries in the bowels of the church and now they are in the Acropolis Museum of Athens.
You will continue walking around the city’s castle, the one that Villehardouins’ family decided to built during the 12th century. At its base, you will have the opportunity to see two houses preserved from 1821, despite the years that have passed and the earthquake that tore down all the other buildings. You will see also the first hospital of free Kalamata, after 300 years of slavery under the Turks.
You will admire the church of St. John, which was built inside a cave and was used by the Greeks as a secret school for their children during the Ottoman era.
The next highlight of our adventure is the tour of the Castle. Walking through the narrow cobbled alleys, among the ruins of the salon of Isabella and her father William, you will feel like the princesses or the knights of your childhood fairy tales.
After that, the monastery of nuns, will bring you back to reality and the modern history of Kalamata. Inside the monastery, the nuns were the first ones taught how to cultivate the silkworm and the art of weaving silk handkerchiefs. In that same place they taught it to the young women of the region. Silk scarves have become Kalamata’s trademark well known throughout Greece.
Your ride continues south, to the oldest church of the city, the church of Agioi Apostoloi. It was built in the 11th century AD. The church’s square, picturesque and full of stores, coffee shops and restaurants, will make you want to take your time and rest. So you can relax and enjoy your coffee in one of the many small traditional cafes or buy souvenirs or traditional local products.
The pedestrian street that we will follow later is Kalamata’s commercial center. You will be able to admire some of the greatest neoclassical and classical buildings but also buildings from the inter war era. The main city hall will impress you.
Surely by then you will be hungry. Since you are in Kalamata, you must not miss the opportunity to taste Mediterranean cuisine. You will have many choices from which you can choose the one that satisfies most your preferences.
You will never regret choosing Kalamata as your destination. Your tour awaits.行程概要出發地點

Telia, a true local, was such a great guide, and we had a great time!
My husband used to visit Kalamata every summer as a child, but had not been back in decades, and even he loved the tour.
Be aware, in the summer we toured in July, the tour is in the evening due to Greeces intense heat. It was still quite hot when we started at 6:30, but Telia almost made us forget this. She picked us up promptly at our hotel and welcomed us with traditional Kalamata gifts. Her enthusiasm and pride for her historic sea-side town is quite evident she almost made the stories come alive as we wandered through narrow lanes and into structures remaining from the ottoman occupation. We visited the nuns famous for their silk-making in true Greek fashion, they were upset we only have a dog and no kids and learned how parts of local churches were spared a true act of God! during the big earthquake. We ended our tour in the more active nightlife area of downtown where we were meeting family for dinner of course Telia would have driven us back to our hotel, but this timing and route was perfect for us. We enjoyed her company so much we would have had her join us if she didnt have her own family plans that evening!
Take this tour if you visit Kalamata. It is well worth the money!

We had a great time. It was only my wife and myself and our guide Telia. Telia was very nice and well educated about Kalamata and the history. Thank you Telia. We highly recommend your tour.
