Overview of your Athens tour:

Homer mentions that Mycenae was rich in gold and well fortified. The gold that was discovered by Schliemann in the graves that we are going to visit weighted 14 kilos of pure gold! The Cyclopian walls are still standing high after 3. 500 years as a proof to the greatness of the ancient civilisation that flourished in this soil. Standing before the famous Lion Gate, its massive stone lintel adorned with two proud lionesses, you'll feel the weight of history pressing down on you. The first labor of Hercules was killing the lion of Nemea. Thereafter he wore its impenetrable hide as armour. At the Sanctuary of Zeus in Nemea Panhellenic games were held in honor of the god in the stadium that we are going to visit. Nafplio my favourite town. We will keep it for the end!!
