Ancient Messene Day Trip from Kalamata

Ancient Messene, a city founded 2500 years ago, is located 30 km to the north of Kalamata and was one of the most important cities of Messinia. Most of the things you would expect to find in an ancient Greek city are here; a theatre (one of the biggest in the ancient world), a large agora (civic center and market), temples, tombs and a large gymnasium converted by the Romans into an arena. Join this tour and walk side by side with history.
