Nafplio & the Peloponnese

Escape the hustle and bustle of Athens with a full-day tour through the breathtaking Peloponnese peninsula. Your Welcomer will double as your local guide, offering historical insights, essential information about the sights, and personal anecdotes to immerse you in Athenian lifestyle.

Your journey begins with a relaxing 1-hour drive along the stunning coastline of the Megara Gulf, leading you straight to the iconic Corinth Canal. Marvel at this monumental waterway, built in 1893, which splits the two gulfs and accommodates even the largest cargo ships. Capture unforgettable photos from the moveable bridge and learn about the canal’s unique history from your driver.

Continuing your tour, you’ll traverse picturesque olive fields to reach Ancient Corinth, once the most important city in the Classical world. Stroll through the Agora and explore the awe-inspiring Temple of Apollo, a testament to the city’s ancient grandeur.

Next, venture to the legendary citadel of Mycenae, steeped in Greek history. Pass through the formidable Lion’s Gate, visit Agamemnon’s throne room, explore ancient tombs, and peruse the on-site museum.

Pause for a delightful break in Nafplio Old Town, a charming port town brimming with quaint shops and traditional eateries. Enjoy a leisurely lunch and soak up the ambiance of the Venetian quarter, with views of the imposing Castle of Palamidi.

Your journey continues through olive fields and orchards to the UNESCO-listed historical sites of the Theatre of Epidaurus and the Shrine of Asklepios. Marvel at the architectural brilliance of the 4th-century Theatre of Epidaurus and explore the site’s temples, hospital buildings, and the impressive Temple of Asklepios.

If time permits, indulge in a visit to the renowned Nemea winery, where you can tour the wine cellars, sample exquisite red wines, and admire the vineyard’s beauty as the sun sets.

As the day draws to a close, your driver will escort you back to Athens, offering a late afternoon drive back to your accommodation. Relish the memories of a day filled with history, culture, and natural beauty in the Peloponnese.
