Overview

Argolida Private Tour

An excursion to Argolis will allow you to get acquainted with the unique city of Nafplio, which became the first capital of Greece after independence. This is probably one of the most atmospheric cities in the continental zone of the state. Its construction was carried out by the Venetians, so it perfectly preserved the Italian flavor. In the Peloponnese, an excursion to Argolis is a visit to one of the world’s most antiquated sites. During the excursion, travelers get a unique opportunity to visit Mycenae, Epidaurus, Nafplio, the Corinth Canal, which became one of the key projects of the nineteenth century.

Thanks to the Corinthian canal, the Peloponnese was transformed into a real island, and sea vessels were able to significantly shorten the path, moving from the Aegean to the Ionian Sea. The construction of the canal began under the reign of Emperor Nero, but was suspended many times, then resumed again.

Famous for their own legendary Mycenae is the cradle of civilization in Europe. The ancient Greeks made their trek to Troy from these places. Mycenae is well preserved most of the attractions. They simply amaze with the skill of ancient architects

Epidaurus is famous for its world famous theater, which has unique acoustic characteristics. It is considered one of the best projects of ancient amphitheatres, which have survived to date.

The Corinth Canal
The Corinth Canal

The Corinth Canal is a man made canal in Greece, that connects the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It cuts through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth and separates the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, arguably making the peninsula an island.

Mycenae
Mycenae

In the second millennium BC, Mycenae was one of the major centres of Greek civilization, a military stronghold which dominated much of southern Greece, Crete, the Cyclades and parts of southwest Anatolia. The period of Greek history from about 1600 BC to about 1100 BC is called Mycenaean in reference to Mycenae. At its peak in 1350 BC, the citadel and lower town had a population of 30,000 and an area of 32 hectares.[4]

Ancient Epidaurus
Ancient Epidaurus

Epidaurus is best known for its sanctuary, the Asclepeion, situated about five miles (8 km) from the town, with its theatre, which is once again in use today. The cult of Asclepius at Epidaurus is attested in the 6th century BC, when the older hill-top sanctuary of Apollo Maleatas was no longer spacious enough. It was the most celebrated healing centre of the Classical world, the place where ill people went in the hope of being cured.
