The Peloponnese
No matter what part of the Peloponnese one visits, one is sure to be swept away by the beauty of the landscape. Quiet and remote little harbours, others that are busy and densely populated, and rich vegetation alternating with rocky landscapes, create a fascinating sight and offer countless options.

The customs and tradition, as well as the sights, vary according to each destination, weaving the history of this special place piece by piece.


Nafplio: Here the history of Greece is captured in a nutshell. This city of castles has retained its character and bustles with life; the beautiful port entices visitors with its distinctive local coffee shops and traditional restaurants, while the monuments and sights are never ending with ancient Mycenae being the crowning glory of them all.
Just outside the port lies the Burtzi, a little island entirely covered by an impressive 18th century fortress.

Monemvasia: Built on a rocky islet, Monemvasia is the Byzantine jewel of the Eastern coast of Peloponnese. Behind the walls of the castle lies a lively medieval town. The coffee shops, bars and restaurants one encounters between the narrow cobblestone paths create a lovely, quaint picture.

Elafonissos: Here is a dream of an island located in the southern part of Peloponnese with only 800 residents. The marvellous, rich sandy beaches of Elafonissos, with their transparent blue waters, have justly been described as “one of a kind”.

Kyparissia: The region of Kyparissia is singularly beautiful and one of the most picturesque areas of Peloponnese. The vegetation of the area is dense and the sea is impressively clear.

Ermione: The city-island, as many people call it, is a perfect holiday destination, since it combines an island atmosphere with non-stop entertainment. The paved narrow streets and beautiful houses of Ermione, the incredible view from the ancient hill named “Pronos”, the fertile fields and the clear waters all band together to etch Ermione in the memory of its visitors.
