As you walk, your guide brings classical mythology to life, pointing out statues and sculptures of sea monsters, ancient gods, and legendary heroes hidden among the greenery.
You will have time to admire and photograph exotic plants, romantic viewpoints, and serene waterways. Your guide may lead you slightly off the main paths to uncover secret stairways, caved pools, and hidden statues that many visitors miss.
