Day 5-6 - Nafplio

View from Paladimi Fortress

On our way to Nafplio we'll make a stop to visit Epidavros, which is "one of the most renowned Greek ancient sites".  Here we will visit  the famous ancient theatre of Epidaurus which has been well preserved and now a popular tourist site.


During the first day we will visit the Acronafplia and Palamidi Fortresses and look out at the amazing views it has to offer of the bay to Argos and Saronic Gulf.  Afterwards we will walk some of the many walking trails along the coastline.

The next day we will visit the ancient archaeological site of Mycenae and discover all of the ancient history it has to offer.  For example - The Lion Gate, which is the entrance, is Europe's oldest monument.
