Excursions with experienced guides in Nafplio
Experience Nafplio Like a Local
Nestled on the picturesque Peloponnese peninsula, Nafplio is a charming coastal town that's often overlooked by tourists flocking to Greece's more famous destinations. But let me tell you, this little gem is a treasure trove of history, culture, and breathtaking views that'll make you wonder why you hadn't visited sooner. And who better to show you around than us folks at Foxiepass?
Now, I know what you're thinking – "Another guided tour company?" But hear me out. We're not your run-of-the-mill tour operators. We're passionate locals who eat, sleep, and breathe Nafplio. We know every nook and cranny of this town, and we can't wait to share our favorite spots with you.
So, what's on the menu?
First up, we've got the crown jewel of Nafplio – the Palamidi Fortress. Trust me, those 999 steps are worth every huff and puff. Once you reach the top, you'll be treated to a view that'll knock your socks off. On a clear day, you can see all the way to the Argolic Gulf. And don't worry, if you're not up for the climb, we've got a little secret – there's a road that leads right up to the entrance. Shh, don't tell everyone!
Next on our list is the charming Old Town. Picture this: narrow cobblestone streets, colorful neoclassical buildings, and bougainvillea cascading from balconies. It's like stepping into a postcard. We'll take you to the best spots for those Instagram-worthy shots, and maybe even share a few local legends along the way.
Now, no visit to Nafplio is complete without a trip to Bourtzi Castle. This little fortress sits on an islet in the middle of the harbor, looking like something straight out of a fairy tale. We'll hop on a boat and zip across to explore this 15th-century Venetian castle. And if you're lucky, you might catch one of the summer festivals held here – talk about a unique venue!
But wait, there's more!
If you're a history buff (or even if you're not), you'll love the Archaeological Museum of Nafplio. Housed in a stunning Venetian building, it's packed with artifacts from the prehistoric to the Roman periods. We'll guide you through the exhibits, bringing ancient stories to life.
And for those of you who like to mix a little relaxation with your sightseeing, we've got you covered. We'll take you to Arvanitia Beach, a pebbly stretch with crystal-clear waters perfect for a refreshing dip. Or if you prefer, we can stroll along the scenic Arvanitia promenade, watching the sunset paint the sky in hues of pink and orange.
