Rejseplan
Vi afgår fra Athen og følger den naturskønne kystvej til vores første stop – Korinthkanalen. Dette imponerende 1900-tals ingeniørmirakel forbinder Det Ioniske Hav med Egeerhavet. (kort stop)
Vores næste destination er den charmerende kystby Nafplio - også kendt ved sit historiske navn, Napoli di Rumænien - betragtes som en af de smukkeste og mest romantiske byer i Grækenland. En gang den første hovedstad i den moderne græske stat, er Nafplio fyldt med neoklassiske bygninger, smalle stengader og elegante venetianske påvirkninger. Mens vi vandrer gennem de maleriske gader, vil vi opleve storslået Palamidi-fortet, der ligger højt over byen, det ikoniske Bourtzi-slott, der stiger op midt i havnen, og den smukke katedral Saint George, et vigtigt landemærke i den gamle bydel. Efter vores guidede tur, vil du have lidt fritid til at udforske i dit eget tempo - måske for at nyde en kaffe ved havet, gennemse de lokale butikker, eller simpelthen suge ind i den afslappede atmosfære i denne fængslende by.
Derefter fortsætter vi vores rejse til den gamle citadel af Mycenae, hjertet af en af de tidligste og mest legendariske civilisationer i verden. Æres for sin forbindelse til de episke fortællinger om den trojanske krig, Mycenae siges at være kongeriget af den mægtige konge Agamemnon - lederen af de græske styrker, der sejlede til Troja for at genvinde den smukke Helen. Mens vi udforsker dette bemærkelsesværdige arkæologiske sted, vil vi passere gennem den ikoniske Lions Gate, den imponerende indgang til den gamle by, og undre sig over de massive Cyclopean Walls, hvis enorme sten har stået i årtusinder. Vi vil også besøge skatten af Atreus (også kendt som graven af Agamemnon), en ekstraordinær bikube-formet grav bygget til en mykenæisk konge. Efter vores guidede besøg tager vi en afslappende frokostpause i Mycenae, hvilket giver dig mulighed for at nyde et måltid omgivet af ekkoer af gammel historie.

The main problem with this tour was that the guide spoke very poor English. She gave a commentary in both French and English but was very difficult to understand which was disappointing as we were interested to hear about the history etc. Also the departure from the Amalia hotel was very disorganised and slow. However the sites themselves and the journey through the mountains was lovely. Like many people, we opted not to take the lunch option but to spend time in Napflio instead and that was a good choice.
This was the WORST tour ever!!! At pickup point, tour guy showed up & put me in a taxi, told me it was paid for to bus location. NO, I paid 10 euros, complained at bus & refunded. Tour guide spoke unclear English and French. Spoke back and forward between languages, hard to tell which she was speaking throughout WHOLE tour. NEVER asked if we had any questions! She ran off the bus at each stop, leaving us run to catch up with her. She was arrogant and demeaning, talking to us as if we were idiots. Several other people voiced complaints to me about her out of her hearing range. At the restaurant, she shamefully called out the four persons’ names who did not pay extra for lunch meal and made sure we raised our hand. No where to go if not eating their lunch. Bus was locked. Residential area. Sat on curb and waited! At dropout point, stopped in most left-hand lane of a three-lane busy street and left me to cross in front of traffic. This was NOT in front of my pick-up point. Dangerous to clients! Unpleasant tour guide! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY on this company! I will tell everyone I know about this experience.
The theatre at Epidarius is outstanding. The bus rides were long. The guide was distant and not very friendly. Time at the sites was limited.
This was an absolutely excellent tour. Our guide was outstanding. She shared her vast knowledge with us, kept us on track, and made it a delightful trip. I highly recommend this trip. It does involve a good amount of walking so wear our comfy shoes.
The experience was phenomenal! Visited many sites in one day, and the included lunch was great. I recommend this tour.
The whole trip was relaxed and enjoyable. Our guide Evi was just right with the amount of given information. We could easily follow her stories. Our driver was excellent, and we were able to enjoy the whole trip. Scenery is breathtaking (sea, olive trees, ancient spots, orange trees). Corinth canal and walk over the bridge is memorable! Epidaurus is something that has impressed me the most. Mycenae was somehow still and quit, but you could feel the energy of that old acropolis. Also, the old school of craftworkers with their ceramics, ornaments and jewellery at the end of the journey were interesting to see!
Great and knowledgeable guide. Good value for money. I wished however, they had provided 30 minutes longer for the Epidaurus theatre.
We had a great day in Peloponnese exploring the Mycenaean remains and civilization. The tour ended at the Lion's gate and we returned to Athens by 6:30pm. Our tour was very well managed with comfortable bus and drive. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and shared a wealth of information about mythology, history, and the ancient art and architecture. The driver was excellent and made the trip safe and enjoyable. I recommend this one day tour of the Greek history to anyone interested in the ancient culture, history, and beautiful countryside scenery.
The trip was amazing. The tourguide told us a lot about the spots. And we had enough time to discover them alone. Highly recommended
I would recommend this tour as it is a great way to see some real-world ancient history of Greece. The guide was great and everything was well organized. I was here on my honeymoon and we would honestly probably give this a 4/5, but I believe any negative feelings are based on the fact that we did a 14 hour train tour the day before this and it was beginning to feel redundant, but that is our fault, not the tours. The final destination at the palace and tomb of Mycenae offers amazing hilltop views of the local area. It made for some really amazing photos.
