4Peloponnese Circle: Nafplio, Mycenae, and Mani

The Peloponnese peninsula is a treasure trove of history, dramatic landscapes, and charming villages. Starting in Nafplio, Greece’s first capital, you can explore the romantic old town with its neoclassical architecture and seaside promenade.
From Nafplio, drive inland to Mycenae, the legendary kingdom of Agamemnon, and then south to the Mani Peninsula, famous for its stone towers and rugged coastline. Autumn brings mild weather, fewer tourists, and golden light that illuminates the cliffs and olive groves. Along the way, you can enjoy local specialties like lamb with herbs, fresh seafood, and the region’s excellent olive oil.
