- Since all the tours we offer are private we have the flexibility to discuss with you any changes you wish to make in the itinerary.
- During summer time because of the hot climate conditions in Greece we always suggest you to wear light clothes, bring with you a hat and sunscreen and make sure to wear non-slipper comfortable shoes due to the slippery terrain in the archaeological sites.
- Also we always provide child seats or boosters whenever is needed with no extra cost. In case there are children between the passengers and you need a child seat we can provide it with no extra cost.
Our Mycenae and Nafplion day tour starts by driving out of the city along the scenic coastal road towards west. Our first stop is the impressive Corinth Canal where you can take pictures and enjoy the breathtaking view by walking on the bridge of the Canal.
After 45 minutes driving through beautiful villages and passing by orange tree fields and vineyards we will arrive to Mycenae. The ancient citadel of Mycenae was the kingdom of glorious Agamemnon and the Mycenean civilization was one of the most important pillars in the Greek history.
In the archaeological site you will admire the Cyclopean walls of the citadel, you will walk through the Lion Gate (symbol of the Mycenean civilization), and see important Mycenean tombs. You will also visit the archaeological museum and a little further down you will be impressed by the tomb of King Agamemnon.
Continuing our Mycenae and Nafplion day tour we will head south to the town of Nafplion, one of the most historical towns in the modern history of Greece. You will admire historical buildings, explore the beautiful small alleys of the town and right after you will enjoy your meal in a local restaurant.
Next we will drive you to Palamidi fortress which was built by the Venetians and its located above the town. Our tour ends by driving you back to Athens and to the place we picked you up.
