The coastal city of Nafplio is one of the most pittoresque and historical places of Greece. It was the first capital of the country and it's associated to some of the darkest moments in modern Greek history, including the assassination of Ioannis Kapodistrias, the first head of state of independent Greece. In the area we now find Nafplio, a settlement existed for thousands of years, as early as the 2nd millenium b. c.

“Excellent Tour of Sanctuary of Asclepios and Theatre of Epidavros.”

Ioannis was an excellent tour guide for our visit. He was very knowledgeable detailed in his explanations of the healing sanctuary, and its museum, as well as the theatre of epidavros. His English is good; we asked him to speak a little more slowly at first, as we had some difficulty understanding a few of the unfamiliar words. But by the end of the tour, we could understand all he said. If I need a guide in Greece again, I hope Ioannis is available!
