Guided Tour of Kos Town Asclepeion and Zia with Wine Tasting
Overview
With the highlights of Kos, this adults-only tour showcases the variety of the island. In a small group with your guide you'll explore Kos town, the Asclepeion ancient site and the village of Zia. A visit to a wine factory and a viewpoint round off the day.
Start off with a guided visit to Kos town and its eye-catching harbor. Next, step back in time at ancient Asclepeion, which remains one of Greece's most important archaeological sites. You will have free time to explore and imagine Hippocrates, who was born in Kos, undergoing his medical education at the Asclepeion. Among the attractions are the remains of the world's first hospital, where doctors learned about medicine from Hippocrates.
You'll visit the mountain village of Zia, known for traditional architecture and wonderful views. After lunch in a typical restaurant, it's on to taste local wine at a wine factory, and at the end of the excursion, you have the chance to capture amazing photos at Kefalos village.
