Overview

This sacred site was once home to Asclepius, the god of healing. According to Greek mythology, when Dionysus revealed the secret of viniculture to Oenus, it’s believed he particularly advised him to focus on the fertile Valley of Nemea, a place central to the ancient practice of winemaking.

Explore a renowned Nemea winery with a guided tour and wine tasting. Learn about the region's 2,000-year winemaking history while savoring the famous wines of Nemea. In ancient Greek myth, it was here that Hercules completed his first labor by slaying the Nemean Lion.

After Nemea, continue through the Argos plains to Nafplio, the first capital of modern Greece. Enjoy a walking tour through its charming streets, discovering its romantic atmosphere, secret passageways, and iconic sights and marvel at the Bourtzi fortress island.

Next, take a short drive to Epidaurus, home to the Sanctuary of Asclepius and its world-renowned ancient amphitheater. Accompanied by an expert guide, immerse yourself in the rich history of this sacred site dedicated to the god of medicine. Walk the ancient stage where actors performed over 3,000 years ago, surrounded by breathtaking scenery.

In the afternoon, enjoy a scenic drive along the Saronic Gulf coast back to your hotel in Athens.
