Your Extraordinary Itinerary
1. The Scenic Peloponnese Drive
Your adventure begins the moment we pick you up from your Athens accommodation. Sit back and relax in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle as we drive through the beautiful Greek countryside, crossing the stunning landscapes of the Peloponnese peninsula on our way to the southeastern coast.
2. Discovering the Castle Town
Step back in time as you cross the narrow causeway leading into the medieval fortress of Monemvasia. Carved directly into a massive sea rock, this car-free, hidden city is completely invisible from the mainland. Choose what matters most to you: delve into its rich Byzantine past, soak in the romantic atmosphere of its cobblestone streets, or admire the beautifully preserved stone mansions and ancient churches.
3. The Upper Town & Coastal Vistas
For those seeking an extra touch of magic, hike up to the Upper Town (Ano Poli) to explore the ruins of the historic fortress and the iconic church of Agia Sofia. Your reward will be the breathtaking, panoramic vistas of the Myrtoan Sea stretching endlessly before you.
