Itinerary

  • N/A

    Isthmus of Corinth dividing the Saronic Gulf from the Gulf of Corinth, an inlet of the Ionian Sea. It connects the Peloponnese with mainland Greece. In ancient times ships were dragged over the isthmus in transit between the Saronikós and Corinthian gulfs. The idea for a shortcut to save boats from having to sail all the way around the Peloponnese was long considered by the Ancient Greeks. The first attempt to build a canal there was carried out by the tyrant Periander in the 7th century BC. In 67 CE the Roman emperor Nero began constructing a canal through it. Finally, in 1893 a 3.9-mile (6.3-km) ship canal, the Corinth Canal, was opened that shortened the journey from the Adriatic Sea to Athens’ port, Piraeus, by more than 200 miles (320 km). To the south is the site of the Isthmian sanctuary at which the biennial Isthmian Games were celebrated in antiquity.

    15 minutes

  • Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos)

    It is known that civilization existed in Corinth at least as early as 6500 BC, and continually occupied into the Early Bronze Age. The archaeological site of Ancient Corinth lays on the northern foothills of the Acrocorinth hill, around the Archaic Temple of Apollo. Extended excavations and have brought to light the Roman Forum, temples, fountains, porticoes, baths, latrines and various other monuments. Corinth was renowned in ancient Greece for its unique architectural inroads (this is where the Corinthian style originates) and its iconic black-figure pottery that was invented there. Limited excavations were conducted in 1892 and 1906 by the Archaeological Society of Athens under the direction of A. Skias. The systematic excavations of the area, initiated by the American School of Classical Studies in 1896, are still continuing today.

    35 minutes

  • Archaeological Museum of Corinth

    The Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth is a museum with a collection full of artifacts from the local archaeological site and the general area of Corinth. The artifacts cover the history of Ancient Corinth through Greek, Roman, and Byzantine rule. Exhibits include statues, mosaics, pottery and sarcophagi.

    30 minutes

  • Archaeological Museum of Ancient Mycenae

    The Archaeological Museum of Mycenae is located within the archaeological site of Mycenae. The collection reveals various aspects of the everyday life of the Mycenaeans, as well as their beliefs about the afterlife and death. The museum offers valuable insights into the remarkable achievements of the Mycenaean civilization that forever shaped and determined the ancient Greek world.

    20 minutes

  • Archaeological Site Mycenae

    Mycenae is situated upon a small hill-top on the road leading from the Argolic Gulf to the north. The site was inhabited since the Neolithic times (about 4000 BC) but reached its peak during the Late Bronze Age (1350-1200 BC), giving its name to a civilization which spread throughout the Greek world. During that period, the acropolis was surrounded by massive "cyclopean walls", built in three stages (ca.1350, 1250 and 1225 BC), with the exception of the SE flank where a steep ravine provided natural defense. A palace was built on the summit of the hill, while towards the Argolic plain lay the wall-painted "Cult Center", the main gate or "Lion Gate" and the "Grave Circle A", the burial ground of the Mycenaean royalty. On the NE side, a tunnel leading to a subterranean fountain was built in "cyclopean" masonry in around 1225 BC.

    35 minutes

  • Citadel and Treasury of Atreus

    Virtually within spitting distance of the fortified citadel of Mycenae is a large, underground tomb that carries the misleading name “Treasury of Atreus”. The monumental structure is what we today classify as a tholos or “beehive” tomb. This is the most impressive, most ostentatious form of funerary architecture in the Aegean. Tholos tombs were constructed in the centuries leading up to ca. 1200 BC, when most of the Mycenaean palaces were destroyed.

    20 minutes

  • Nafplio

    Nafplion was already inhabited in the Mycenaean period (1600-1100 BC) and up till the present day, although there have been times that the city was largely deserted. Known in Venetian times as “Napoli di Romania”, the modern Nafplion is largely an Italian-looking town. It was also the first capital of modern Greece after the war of independence against the Ottoman rule. The first president of Greece, Ioannis Kapodistrias, was murdered in Nafplion in 1831.

Family-friendly adventure

Traveling with kids can be tricky, but this tour made it so easy! Our guide adjusted the pacing perfectly. Corinth’s ruins kept us intrigued, while Mycenae’s Lion Gate fascinated even the little ones. Nafplio was a hit with its quiet streets and family-friendly cafes. If you ask me, this tour combines education and fun seamlessly. 5/5 experience!

Scenic and special

Published on Jan, 2025

Walking through Mycenae’s ancient paths gave me goosebumps. The tour was well-organized, and Nafplio was peaceful. If I’m honest, this trip felt like a perfect blend of history and relaxation. Our guide’s stories made it even more engaging.

Greek history at its best

Published on Jan, 2025

When I first started this tour, I wasn’t expecting such a detailed dive into history. But OMG, Corinth and Mycenae had so much to offer! Nafplio’s romantic vibe was a perfect way to end the day. The guide shared fascinating facts and ensured we were comfortable. Looking back now, it was a fantastic experience. Loved every bit of it.

Truly a Greek adventure

Published on Jan, 2025

I didn’t expect to enjoy each stop equally, but wow, every place had its charm. Nafplio’s seafood was the best! Corinth’s ancient vibes and Mycenae’s grand history were unforgettable. TY to the driver for keeping us informed and entertained.
