On the first morning the Corinth Canal slices the landscape like a knife—6.4 kilometres of steep limestone walls where tugboats thread below and the cliffs seem to watch every passing vessel. The guide’s voice folds history into the view: plans stretching back to Periander, failed ancient attempts and the 19th-century engineering that finally opened the cut.
