Day Trip Details
At the indicated time, we'll meet at Athanasiou Diakou Street, number 26, and depart for the Corinth Canal, where we'll make a short stop to enjoy one of the most amazing engineering works in history!
Following our visit, we'll head for the Argolid region, where Mycenae, one of the major centers of Greek civilization, awaits us. Once in the city, we'll visit its archaeological site, home of the legendary kingdom of Agamemnon, where we'll be transported to the scenes of the pages of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey.
After visiting the citadel, the Lion's Gate and the Tomb of Agamemnon, we'll head to Nafplion, which was the first capital of modern Greece. Upon arrival, you'll have 1.5 hours of free time to enjoy lunch and explore the town at your own pace. Admire the imposing Venetian fortress of Palamidi and the castle of Bourtzi. Then, take a stroll through the charming streets of the center.
Refueled, we'll continue our journey to Epidaurus, birthplace of Asclepius, the god of medicine. The crown jewel of this town is, without a doubt, the Epidaurus Theater. If you do not wish to take the guided tour of the site, you will have 1 hour free while the rest of the group takes the tour.
