Greece cave tour
Visiting the caves of Greece
The beauty of the Greek underground
Remembering Greece, the imagination draws natural landscapes of amazing beauty, light sandy beaches washed by the clear waters of the seas, powerful views of mountain ranges. When remembering ancient sights, it can take your breath away.
Oddly enough, but that’s not all. Many people know about the underground kingdom – the caves of Greece, which are rightfully considered one of the most beautiful in the whole world. A huge number of travelers come here every year to admire them.
The terrain of Greece has not been fully explored, a huge number of caves have not been studied. They hide surprises, natural pictures that would certainly enchant visitors.
Despite this, there are caves that are open to the public, the location of which is the Peloponnese. Those who are fond of geology, hydrology, physics, biology, paleontology, and archaeology go to explore them. Such tourists will view the bizarre forms of rock formations through the prism of science.
People far from science visit underground palaces to enjoy their majestic beauty, for example:
Solve the mystery of the origin of stalagmites or stalactites.
To freeze for a long time at the underground lake, trying to see in it a sea underground inhabitant.
Forgetting about time, spend hours looking at natural paintings painted on rocks, etc.
The caves are interesting for everyone – local residents, tourists, even those who have been here many times – guides. The guides of Nomos Travel company will certainly conduct an excursion to any of the caves of the Peloponnese.

This place is a must-see – beautiful views, a stable temperature of 180C, with a humidity level of about 90%, a huge hall, whose height is about 20 m, wonderful acoustics – all this makes the cave the most visited.
