Waking up in the most romantic city in Greece, the 4th day of your trip will give you the opportunity to explore the mesmerizing region of Mycenae.

After Mycenae, a Nafplio walking tour will help you experience the true beauty of Nafplio’s scenic streets that carry beauty as much as they carry history, before indulging in a flavorful Greek liquor-tasting in the evening.

On day 5, it’s time to lay back and enjoy a completely free day in Nafplio and the popular beach of Tolo, the little seaside city right next to Nafplio, known for its long, sandy coast, perfect for a long walk, sunbathing, or a dive in its sparkling blue-green waters. The choice is yours!

Spetses

Let your private driver take you from Nafplio to Epidaurus and start your day with a guided tour around the historic region that hosts the world-famous Epidaurus Theater. From there, a 1,5-hour drive will take you to the port of Kosta, where you’ll hop on a ferry for a 5-minute trip to the magical island of Spetses. The rest of the day will be free for you to familiarize yourself with the scenic island!

The following morning, set on a cycling tour that will take you around the whole island on a scenic route. If you’re visiting the island with a large group of people, you can also indulge yourself and your loved ones in an all-inclusive cruise to Vathi Avlaki and Monemvasia. Soak in luxury and cruise along the coastline of eastern Peloponnese, from the isolated beach of Vathi Avlaki to the enchanting medieval town of Monemvasia; this will surely be a day to remember!

For day 8, a day trip to Hydra is due! As soon as you step foot on its scenic port, experience the magic of a place where no means of transportation is allowed and join a 1,5-hour walking tour that will introduce you to Hydra’s history, culture, and architecture, before returning to Spetses at night having gained insight into the Greek island life.

The traditional dinner at the end of the tour, full of local flavors, won’t hurt either!

The penultimate day of your trip, you can opt for the chance to spend a full day in the sea and customize your itinerary to include the places you want to visit the most! Cruise along the coast of Aegina, visit the islet of Moni, sail to the island of Agistri and swim in waters you thought impossible to exist!

Our way
to travel

We believe in a certain way of traveling. And this does not include big bus tour groups, nor large chain hotels or just crossing destinations off your list.

Our philosophy is that, in order to really experience a life-changing journey, you should:
  • immerse yourself in the culture and the landscape of your destination
  • take a moment to appreciate your surroundings and not hop from one destination to another
  • exploit your limited time with the help of a knowledgeable guide who will open your eyes about what you see and give you a real perspective of living in this country
  • trust an experienced, local travel specialist with whom you will design a trip tailored to your needs, avoiding endless research and first-timer mistakes

And this is what we strive to do. Either you join one of our small-group tours or design a private trip just for you, we are here to help you experience Greece in a meaningful, authentic way.
