Overview of your Athens tour:

Why this tour? Nafplio is my hometown and one of my bases, along with Athens and Hydra Island. My personal connection to the area will enhance your visit and make you feel like a local. Besides exploring famous sites, we can optionally enjoy an Ouzo or a Greek coffee together, where and when Greeks do. This tour weaves through multiple key landmarks from Corinth Canal to the Epidaurus theater with the best acoustics in the world, to King Agamemnon's Mycenae site to the Venetian "old town" of Nafplio town to Palamadi Fortress, where you will (optionally) walk down all 999 steps before a breathtaking vista of the peninsula. Lunch and drinks will be our treat. You will experience some really authentic Greek culinary delights in a non-touristy location while observing the locals in their everyday lives, which is an essential part of ALL my tours. The tour finishes opposite Hydra Island at the right time for you to cross by the local boat.

Your Athens tour itinerary
