Few words about Ancient Corinth...
Ancient Corinth, a significant city-state in ancient Greece, held a strategic location on the isthmus and served as a vital trading center in the ancient world until it was challenged by Athens. Corinth was renowned for its wealth and opulence during that period. Today, visitors can explore the archaic Temple of Apollo, constructed in 530 BC with impressive monolithic Doric columns. Additionally, they can discover the Conservatory, built in the first century, alongside remains indicating the existence of an ancient theater that could accommodate up to 18,000 spectators.
Few words about Ancient Epidaurus...
The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus is an architectural marvel of the ancient world, built in the 4th century BC and located in the Sanctuary of Asklepios. The theater is renowned for its exceptional acoustics, as even the slightest sound made on stage can be heard from the highest seat in the auditorium. The theater was used for hosting theatrical performances, musical events, and religious ceremonies in honor of the god Asclepius. Today, the theater still hosts performances during the Epidaurus Festival, an annual event held in the summer, where visitors can experience the magic of this ancient monument and its acoustics.
Few words about Mycenae...
Mycenae holds great significance as an archaeological site in Greece. The citadel, situated atop the lush plain of Argolis near the coast of northeast Peloponnese, was fortified and served as the primary hub of the Mycenaean civilization, which is widely regarded as one of the most important cultural centers of its time.
Few words about Nafplio...
Nafplio, often considered one of the most picturesque cities in Argolis and Greece as a whole, holds a special place in Greek history as the first capital of the newly founded Greek state from 1823 to 1834. According to myth, the city was founded by Nafplios, son of Poseidon and Danaida Animonis. With a rich cultural heritage that dates back to prehistoric times, Nafplio played a role in both the Argonautic Expedition and the Trojan War.
Few words about Ancient Olympia...

Private Tour Experience Timeline
Corinth Canal
The Corinth Canal is a waterway that links the Ionian Sea's Gulf of Corinth with the Aegean Sea's Saronic Gulf. It passes through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth, effectively separating the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese region and giving rise to debates over whether the peninsula should be classified as an island.
Epidaurus Theatre
Dating back to 340 BC, the theater boasts a seating capacity of approximately 13,000 individuals. It was constructed in two stages, with the first phase taking place in the 4th century BC and the second phase occurring during the mid-2nd century. The theater was divided into two sections, one designated for citizens and another reserved for priests and authorities. Thanks to its impressive acoustics and remarkably preserved condition, the ancient theater continues to be utilized to this day.
Cyclopean Walls, Mycenae
The citadel of Mycenae is encircled by Cyclopean walls that were constructed in three distinct phases between the 14th and 13th centuries BC. The southern perimeter of the citadel is protected by a steep ravine that served as a natural defense mechanism. The acropolis itself contains numerous significant structures, such as the palatial complex situated at the highest point, the Lions' Gate which serves as the main entrance to the acropolis, and the impressive Religious Center. Additionally, the Tomb Circle A is home to a number of opulent, lacquered tombs and other valuable structures.
Palamidi, Nafplio
Standing tall at an elevation of 216 meters above sea level, the Palamidi Castle commands an impressive presence. In order to access the castle, one must ascend all 999 steps, which are expertly carved into the rock. However, the spectacular views from atop the castle more than justify the climb.
Bourtzi, Nafplio
Bourtzi, the picturesque Venetian fortress situated on the rocky islet of Agioi Theodoroi, is widely regarded as the most photographed and recognizable landmark in Nafplio. During the period of Venetian domination, a massive metal chain was employed to link Bourtzi with Akronafplia and safeguard the port from potential naval assaults.
Old Town, Nafplio
Nestled in the eastern Peloponnese region of Argolis, this town is widely regarded as one of the most stunning locales in the area. Furthermore, it is widely considered to be among the most enchanting and alluring cities in all of Greece.
