-
Corinth Canal - Our first stop is at the Corinth Canal, the narrow passage between mainland Greece and the Peloponnese. Completed in 1893 and considered a marvel of its time, you’ll learn about its fascinating and varied history, from ancient times to the present, as you watch yachts pass beneath its steep cliffs.
-
Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos) - After crossing into the Peloponnese, our first major stop is the well-preserved ruins of Ancient Corinth, one of Greece’s most powerful city-states in antiquity. Walk through its streets, temples, markets, and fountains, following in the footsteps of Classical Greeks, Ancient Romans, and St. Paul. Refreshments and rest stops are available at local cafes near the entrance if needed.
-
Archaeological Museum of Corinth - A small museum within the archaeological site, featuring a limited but intriguing collection of artifacts.
-
Archaeological Site Mycenae - Next, we visit the impressive ruins of Ancient Mycenae, a key site in the development of Ancient Greece. Central to the Mycenaean period (1600-1100 BC), it was home to the palace of the legendary Agamemnon, leader of the Greeks during the Trojan War. Enter through the massive lion’s gate, explore Agamemnon’s throne room, and see the tombs with their monumental construction. Excavations have uncovered over 15kg of gold and other priceless treasures, many of which are displayed in the on-site museum, including Agamemnon’s death mask.
-
Archaeological Museum of Ancient Mycenae - Located within the main archaeological site, this museum provides excellent background information and unique exhibits that bring the life and times of the Ancient Mycenaeans to life. We recommend visiting it before exploring the main site.
-
Nafplio - After the morning’s activities, we arrive at Nafplio, one of Greece’s most beautiful towns. This historic port city by the sea has charming narrow streets with Neoclassical and Venetian architecture, upscale local craft and clothing shops, and a seafront filled with cafes and restaurants offering views of the Venetian castle of Bourtzi in the bay. Take time to wander the pretty streets, pick up a souvenir, or relax over lunch.
-
Sanctuary of Asklepios - The ruins of the Ancient Sanctuary of Asklepios are part of the same site as the Ancient Theatre. At the end of your day, relax as your driver returns you safely to your hotel or other destination.
-
The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus - After lunch, we visit the UNESCO-listed Sanctuary of Asklepios, the first healing center of the Ancient World, which also includes the impressive Theatre of Epidaurus. Dating from the 4th century, the temple and theatre are masterpieces of classical Greek architecture. Join other visitors in testing its world-famous acoustics with a poem or song before heading back.
-
Epidaurus Archaeological Museum - A small but focused museum within the main archaeological site, featuring fascinating finds, including written tablets describing the healing performed at the Asclepion, offering amazing insights into the site’s activities thousands of years ago.
