Argolis is a small province of southern Greece with a long and glorious history, being a meeting place of some of the greatest civilizations in history. In this tour we will visit the three greatest monuments of the region. The first one is Palamidi, an imposing Venetian castle. Then there's Mycenae, a UNESCO world heritage site and the administrative center of the most powerful Bronze Age Greek kingdom. The tour could not be completed without a visit to Epidaurus, a celebrated healing center.

Becky R.
“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!

A very beautiful and picturesque settlement, Nafplio is located in the southwest side of the Peloponnese and is famous for being the first capital of Modern Greece. Nowadays, it's a popular tourist destination, famous for its narrow alleys and its Venetian castle, called Palamidi that dominates its skyline. As a friendly and easy going person, who is specialized in modern Greek history, this tour is ideal for me in order to transmit you my knowledge of the region!
