It was a great day tour out of Athens, especially for a Monday where the town of Nafplio is especially quiet and nice to stroll around and the view from Palamidi is breathtaking！ Our driver and guide, George, is an excellent guide! He comprehensively answers all our questions, from history, culture, economics, geography, food, to even politics! And his excellent English makes it easy for up to interact. George is also very nice and patient with our kids. All in all, a great value for money experience!

We had a great full day. Our guide Manos was very knowledgeable. The van was very comfortable. We really enjoyed all of the sights, the ruins at Mycenae and museum were very interesting, Epidaurus was really cool and we loved the town of Nafplio. Manos brought us to a great restaurant there and ice cream and a amazing little church. I highly recommend!
