The trip was wonderful as was the guide. It was a great excursion and highly recommend it. Lunch was good but wish there would have been more of a selection.

This was a very enjoyable day trip . The guide, John, was very good and helpful. Visit to the Corinth canal was very enjoyable and informative. The highlight of the trip was the visit to the Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth. I wish there was more time available to explore it. The beauty of Nafplio was superb and the food was great! The entire drive to and from the Peloponnese through beautiful Greece landscape was thoroughly enjoyable.
