Greece » Peloponnese

The Peloponnese, southern part of the Greek mainland, is a real treat for all who love nature and history, mountains and sea. Travel around the peninsula and visit what is left of the cities of ancient civilisations, admire the rich nature, and see the most astonishing views. . 

Mountains
The Peloponnesian mountains are a sight to be seen, and especially suitable to visit for people that like to have a more active holiday. Between the picturesque, stone-build villages and impressive nature, guests of the region can go rafting, eat seasonal dishes, visit monasteries, and even walk from village to village following the Menalon trail.  

Mani
The southernmost part of the Peloponnese has a wildness, unlike any other region in Greece. Stone houses built like little fortresses and some inhabitants claiming ancestry from the Spartans only add to the feeling the impressive, rugged nature gives when traveling through this area. Mani is a place for hiking, a place for swimming, but above all, a place for discovery and adventure. 

Nafplion
What was once the capital of the new Greek kingdom from 1832 to 1834, is now a romantic seaside town, filled with opportunities to discover the rich history of the Peloponnese region. Ancient Greeks, Venetian, and Ottoman rulers all left their marks on the city, as made visible by the diverse architecture, and influence on local culture. Highlights are walking the 999 steps carved into the rock of the Venetian Palamidi castle, and the Arvanitia Promenade with unmatched views on the Gulf of Argolis.
