Itinerary
Day 1
Pickup in central Nafplio
Private pickup from your central Nafplio meeting point (hotel or central square). Driver confirms exact pickup location in advance and will wait briefly to collect the group.
Tips from local experts:
- Confirm exact pickup address in advance so the driver can reach narrow old-town streets.
- Have a photo of your pickup point or hotel entrance ready to speed meeting the driver.
- Carry a small day bag and any items you want for the site visit (sunscreen, hat, camera).
Ancient Nemea – stadium and archaeological site
Visit the ancient stadium and archaeological site of Nemea (Temple of Zeus and surrounding excavations). Waiting time is included; entrance tickets are NOT included and should be purchased on-site.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring a printed or digital copy of your ticket if you already purchased entrance in advance; the ticket office can be busy at peak times.
- Wear comfortable shoes and bring a hat — much of the site is exposed with uneven ground and short walking sections.
- There is limited shade and seating on-site; plan for short, relaxed walks and a 40–45 minute visit to see the stadium and temple ruins. Tickets are purchased at the site’s ticket office.
Wine tasting at a selected Nemea winery
Visit one selected winery in the Nemea PDO region for an on-site tasting. The tour includes time for the tasting and any short waiting time. Tastings are arranged with the winery; tasting fees (if any) are not included.
Tips from local experts:
- Call or message ahead if you have a preferred winery within Nemea to confirm they can receive you at the scheduled time.
- If you prefer a quieter, more romantic seating, request a table or tasting area facing the vineyards when you arrive.
- If either person prefers to avoid alcohol, ask the winery in advance about non-alcoholic or juice pairing options; wineries often accommodate such requests.
Return transfer and drop-off in Nafplio
Private transfer returns to your Nafplio drop-off point (hotel or central square). Driver will drop you back at the agreed location.
Tips from local experts:
- Confirm your preferred drop-off address with the driver at pickup so the return is direct and timely.
- Expect a short debrief with your driver in case of any changes to the return timing or traffic.
- Keep any purchases (bottles or small souvenirs) in a secure bag; wineries will typically wrap bottles for transport if requested.
