Description
Start your day the smart way and enjoy a more comfortable, well-paced small-group experience, beginning at our central meeting point at Pl. Karaiskaki.
Depart Athens with your friendly guide (archaeologist) by bus from the Pl. Karaiskaki and reach the ancient city of Mycenae. Let the Cyclopean walls take your breath away, and learn about the mysterious origins of this fantastic structure.
Mycenae is considered the greatest and richest kingdom of the later Bronze Age around 1350 B.C.
Walk around the archaeological park, pass through the great Lionesses Gate, explore the Ancient Treasure of Atreus also known as King Agamemnon’s Tomb as well as the Tomb of Clytemnestra. Admire the Palace and the Gold Mask of Agamemnon.
After Mycenae enjoy a traditional Greek lunch in the beautiful seaside city of Nafplio. Nafplio used to be the capital of Greece before Athens and its architecture has Venetian, Byzantine, Ottoman and Modern Greek influences.
Admire the main attractions like the Castle of Bourtzi, the Acronauplia and the Castle of Palamidi built on the top of the hill as well as the various picturesque squares in the city center.
Finish your day with a visit to the ancient theater of Epidaurus. This site is well known as the theater with the greatest acoustics and still hosts the Festival of Epidaurus every summer.
