Make the most of your Athens adventure
What makes Ancient Corinth and Nafplio Private Day Trip from Athens a unique experience ?
Our first stop is at the impressive Corinth canal as your driver describes its many interesting ill-fated and varied History’s from Ancient times to the present.
After a short drive further into the Peloponnese we stop to explore the beautifully preserved remains of Ancient Corinth, one of Greece’s most powerful and influential city states of Antiquity. Stroll through the streets, temples, markets, and fountains in the footsteps of the Classical Greeks, Ancient Romans & St. Paul before you. Refreshments & rest stops are also on hand at the local Cafes at its entrance if needed.
Guests can be brought up to the fortress of Acrocorinth which sits above the ruins of Ancient Corinth & enter to explore & take in the amazing panoramic views of the surrounding countryside & coast.
Please note that the entrance to Acrocorinth is on a hillside with some uphill walking necessary. Any guests with walking difficulties may therefore choose to omit this site & spend more time in Ancient Corinth
Enjoy lunch in the beautiful medieval & historical port city of Nafplio by the sea with views to the Venetian castle of Bourtzi in the bay. This city has a definite artistic feel so take time for a stroll and explore the many local craft shops & boutiques of the charming old city.
Your driver will, if you want, bring you to this impressive Venetian fortress which dominates the town & played a significant role in the History of the area.
