Three great places to...

Three great places to visit. Elena was a very good guide, providing clear and interesting information.

Excellent Excursion

Our guide, Elleana, did a wonderful job giving us detailed and interesting information about each of our stops as well as describing what we were seeing along the way on our bus trip. The sites we saw were amazing and we enjoyed learning more about ancient history. It was a long day, but well worth it!

The best way to get to know the Peloponnese

Very complete excursion. Darío explains everything in a very pleasant and rigorous way. Visit to incredible sites. Special mention also to our driver

Not really guided. Well informed..

The organisation of the tour is perfect ( all the practical stuff) and beautiful Helena was good. But I hoped for a guided tour at sites. We have got a lot of information while driving and was on our own at the sites. That is why I couldn’t appreciate Mycenae. It just doesn’t work that way. So the guided tour is not guided, but organized.
