★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 2,805 reviews · 10 hours · from $34Our pick

Small-group Athens day trip to Mycenae, Nafplio, and Epidaurus. Archaeologist guide, audio app, early timing, and great value.

“Great trip and very well-mapped out. Kalleroi was a gem and an ideal guide. She was knowledgeable, thoughtful and will regale you with stories and had funny commentary about her fellow Greeks. Dimitris was incredible. I would not trust myself with those winding roads! But he got us to all the sites smoothly and timely. The sites themselves are well worth the trip. Mycenae was super cool although be warned, Brad Pitt is not included in the admission fee!”

“This is a fantastic 4 day land tour of the major ancient sites on the main land of Greece. We did this tour before going on a cruise of the Greek islands. It is well planned out and organized. Our tour guide for the whole 4 days, Xenia, was Amazing! She was a walking scholar on Ancient Greek civilization providing in-depth insights to all the places we visited. We had a small group of 9 people which made moving around places easy. I was unsure about booking a 4 day tour with an unknown tour company but the reviews we read before booking were positive and our experience on the…”

A guided day trip from Athens to Mycenae and Nafplion with the Tomb of Agamemnon, Corinth Canal, and seaside time.

“Our tour guide Joy was amazing. Her knowledge and passion for the history of the sites was great. My only issue with the tour was the lunch. It’s a below average lunch in the middle of nowhere at the Hotel Aliana. I highly recommend skipping the lunch and instead allocating your time at Nafplio, by far my favorite city in Greece. The have many beautiful restaurants on the water with amazing views. I think the tour should cancel the lunch option and instead allow guests to eat in the amazing city.”
