Description
Ioannina is one of Northern Greece's most atmospheric cities. It is set on the western shore of the lovely Lake Pamvotis and framed by the impressive mountain range that turns lilac at sunset. The walls of the old town (Kastro) enclose an atmospheric, tranquil old quarter, and the lakeside area is lined by opulent plane trees that let in the dappled afternoon sunlight. With jutting minarets, the great fortress and the island's unique appeal (to Nisi), Ioannina makes a beautiful place to visit. The trip takes 8 to 10 hours, according to clients' needs. Dodoni archaeological site is one of the most ancient oracles in Greece, and it was dedicated to Zeus. It's not as well known as other archaeological sites in Greece, but it's a nice place to visit, especially to see one of the best-preserved ancient Greek theatres. It was the oldest of the Greek oracles, and ancient people travelled great distances to consult the priests who foretold the future.
