Beyond the Islands: Greece’s Remote Peloponnese Road Trip

Описание: Many travellers visit Greece for the famous islands... but this is something completely different. Join us for a Peloponnese Greece road trip from Athens to the very tip of the Mani Peninsula, ending in the secluded pirate cove of Porto Kagio.

This Greece travel video/itinereary begins with an overnight flight from Toronto to Athens, a night in Elefsina, and then a drive south. We stop for a swim at Kiveri Beach on the Argolic Gulf, then continue three more hours into the mountains, navigating winding roads, steep climbs, and dramatic cliffside views before arriving in Porto Kagio.

In Porto Kagio, we explore the area’s fascinating history... from Ottoman castles to pirate battles...and visit the almost-abandoned hilltop village of Vathia, one of the most photogenic spots in Greece.
