A walk back to the Mycenaean Age

Our our guide was excellent! A trained archaeologist brought many of the sites we visited to life! She was very interactive with the guest patiently answering every question posed.

East-Peloponnesus guided trip

Fun trip and a good way to spend the morning and afternoon, the lunch that was provided was very tasty. The guide Giota is very kind and is a specialist in the field of history especially in the places we visited. I would recommend this trip.

Incessant speaking

The tour guide can't stop talking to save his life. Every little detail of the trip's logistics is explained in extreme detail and repeated several times to exhaustion. It doesn't help that the speaker in the bus is also extremely loud.
