Argolis-land of Homer

A vacationers favorite day tour. As we leave from Athens for your day tour to Argolis/Mycenae/Epidaurus and Nafplion, relax in A/C comfort as we drive along the lakeside coastal road to Corinth where we see the engineering marvel, the Corinth Canal.  We will enter the region of Argolis, land of Homer's Golden Mycenae, a UNESCO World Heritage site dating back to the second century BCE. Mycenae was one of the major centers of Greek civilization and a military stronghold which dominated much of southern Greece

We will visit the archaeological site which was home to the kingdom of mythical Agamemnon as well as the Lion's Gate and the Treasure of Atreus which is a magnificent 14th century BCE structure. Additionally, time will be spent at the massive Cyclopean Walls, the Lion's Gate, and the Royal Tombs.
