Great day! Well worth it! - We loved traveling through the countryside and seeing the canal, Corinth and Nafplio. We enjoyed the history and the beauty. The pace was easy. The bus was comfortable and even had WiFi. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Great day out with a variety of experiences and very interesting. - This was a really interesting day. Nikos was a very informative and interesting speaker who was able to articulate not just the facts but also to explain all of Greek history and all the myths and legends as we made our way on the bus to our destinations. For me the Corinth canal was a short but spectacular view. The main stops were the city of Corinth and Nafplion. Nikos was able to explain all about the history and buildings of the city and the museum was a quick but rewarding tour. The Nafplion city is a really pretty town and quite different to other Greek towns because of its history and we were able to explore and have lunch on our own. It’s a good combination of experiences in the day. The only downside is the traffic in Athens which made it a whole day trip.

Amazing tour guide - One of the best tour guides I've ever experienced. She was extremely knowledgeable. I wish we had more time in Nafphlio though, it is such a cute town. We had a fantastic meal there that the tour guide recommended. While it's convenient to buy the option with the tickets purchased for you, buy your own tickets if you want to save some money.

Definitely worth a visit for Christians - The trip overall was very good, the guide was excellent and spoke in clear English. The canal was a good short stop as it also included a rest stop. Ancient Corinth is not as vast or as in good as shape as say Ephesus which was the highlight of our trip. We still found the Biblical significance of the site made it very worthwhile. The trip to Nafplion was good because our guide took the time to give a quick optional tour of the town. I am not sure all guides do that.

A wonderful day out - Great day out not too far from Athens. We enjoyed the time at the ancient city and museum. We did find the audio tour a bit confusing so we just toured by ourselves using the information provided at the site. We had a great lunch at the little village also.

Beautiful day tour - Visit the canal of Corinth, then go ancient Corinth and from there to the beautiful Nafplio. All three worth it, the canal is special where do you see such a thing. And Nafplio is a beautiful town. In addition, we had a great guide Harry who knew a lot to tell and had a lot of humor.

Bad experience - The trip was not worth, took too long to visit two places (ancient Corinthi and Nafplion)! Wouldn’t recommend it especially with the Guide (Gregory) 😮‍💨 who talked too much and who had very boring and slow way of telling things, he told me too many unnecessary details that took a lot of time instead of spending more time in Nafplion. Would be appreciated if more valuable summary instead of very boring details! You did not get short breaks during the trip, stopped only 1 time for 10 min by the canal. We had to go to restrooms and no time was left to sit and drink tea or coffee. We decided to buy tea and coffee and drink them in the bus but we had to throw away the ones we bought because we were not allowed to bring them in to the bus😞 He recommended bad restaurant that only had seafood (which according to him it included everything!). We got less than 1 hour to look for another restaurant, have lunch and explore the whole city (Nafplion) during lunchtime. In conclusion, more concise info about the history and more time to rest and explore Nafplion would be recommended.
