Description

Embark on a historical journey to Nafplio, a delightful coastal town just a short hop from Athens. Visit the Corinth Canal, Palamidi Fortress, and Acronafplia Castle.

Drive to the top for panoramic views and to learn more about the fortress's historical significance. Explore the smaller Acronafplia Castle, located on a nearby hill. It offers the most incredible views of the city and the harbor. Take a leisurely stroll through the narrow, cobblestone streets of the Old Town and admire the stunning Venetian architecture and picturesque squares. Visit the Archaeological Museum to learn about the region's fascinating history. Enjoy a relaxing stroll along the waterfront and watch the sunset over the sea.
