EXCURSION ARGOLIDA

Day trip along the highlights of Ancient Greece.

The Peninsula

This day excursion is really popular because people will see a lot in just a short time. By coach they leave early in the morning under guides of a professional guide to the Peloponnesus. The first sightseeing is the long Canal of Corinth. The canal is still in use by ships and it is very impressive to see from above how the ships are being towed through the canal by a tug-boat.
After this stop the road continues along the capricious, green east coast to Epidaurus. Here a visit to the old impressive theatre, which is well known because this theatre has a tremendous good acoustics; even on the last row the visitors are able to hear what is being said on stage! Having tested the sound affects it is time to have a great lunch in one of the taverns at the coast. After the lunch it is only a 10 km drive to the idyllically town Nafplion for a coffee stop.
The last archaeological site to visit for the day, before going back to Athens, is Mycene with the world-famous lion gate and the grave of Agamemnon.

Museum Mycene since 2003

Since summer 2003 Mycene has its own archaeological museum housing about 2.500 objects. Up to then almost all finds of the site were at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens. Though the main items will remain in Athens, the Mycenean museum exhibits finds that were never shown to the public before since their excavation at the end of the 19th century.

There are works made of clay, metal, stone, gold and ivory. The objects are displayed in units with additional information provided next to each unit. Visiting the museum after the site helps the visitor to form a complete picture of the daily life, burial customs and social structure of this ancient society.

The museum is located next to the site and the ticket for the site is also valid for the museum as well as for the Treasury of Atreus.

The Epidaurus Festival

For more than forty years, the Epidaurus Festival, part of the Hellenic Festival, has re-created ancient Greek classics at the beautiful and acoustically tremendous theatre at Epidaurus. Don't miss this marvellous opportunity to experience theatre as the ancient Greeks did in the 4th century BC. Performances are in Greek but programs provide synopses in other languages. The festival takes place during the summer months.

The performance schedule for the Epidaurus Festival will be released in about April for the summer season. Check the official website of the Greek Festival to find the actual program and ticket information. Click here to read more about the history of the venue.
