A day trip to Nafplio for the first-time visitor will almost always include some, if not all, of the following Peloponnese sites:
The Corinth Canal, Ancient Corinth, the Acropolis of Corinth, the Mycenae Archaeological Site and Museum, Nafplio’s Old Town & Port, the Palamidi Fortress with its 999 steps, and the Epidaurus Ancient Theater.
TIP: Looking further into taking advantage of your Nafplio trip, we highly recommend visiting Hydra Island!
A day trip from Athens to Nafplio is a fantastic way to start exploring Greece. However, Nafplio is only our first stepping stone to our extremely popular Peloponnese multiday private tours.
To name a few, Monemvasia castletown, the Mani peninsula, Sparta/Mystras, and Ancient Olympia. Furthermore, there are numerous hidden locations for those who have the time to see real Greece, skipping the “touristy” locations they hear about from their friends or travel agents who have only visited Athens, Mykonos, and Santorini. For example, Ancient Messene, Methoni, Pylos, and the Arcadia mountain villages of Dimitsana and Stemnitsa. Finally, the amazing cliff-hanging monasteries!
In addition, right next to Nafplio, you can enjoy the most famous Greek wine area: the Greek “Napa Valley”, Nemea!
