I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Athens and the Pelopponese. I recommend visiting the Archaeological Museum in Athens as there are many artefacts from the sites in the Pelopponese, for example the golden masks and jewellery from Mycenae and it provides a great overview before you embark on the journey. The hotels were all lovely and in great locations with good views. We walked a lot! In Mystra we walked down through the site and were not really looking forward to the walk back up the hill as it was very hot, but found a taxi at the cafe on the road below the main entrance. The site itself was fascinating. As described in the notes, the hotel in Kardamyli is about 2km from the town but it is an easy walk to the beach and along by the sea into town. It is a bit steep walking back up the hill but we preferred to walk over driving. Lela's restaurant was well worth a visit: highly recommend. The scenery is stunning in the area. Unfortunately there was persistent torrential rain the day we travelled from Monemvasia to Kardamyli so the drive into the deep Mani was not enjoyable and we could not get out to walk. We also had thunderstorms while in Kardamyli but fortunately these were late afternoon/early evening after we had got back from exploring and before we went out for dinner so we sat on our verandah with an aperitif and watched the storms! I would recommend going prepared for rain end of Sept/beginning Oct but in general the weather was perfect for both sightseeing and the beach. On the way from Kardamyli to Olimpia we decided to visit the Bay of Navarino and Nestor's Palace instead of Ancient Messina. Both were beautiful. It is worth reading up on the history of the naval battles at Navarino between Athens and Sparta and during the battle for Greek independence if you visit the bay. Nestor's Palace is a very small site but well worth a visit in my opinion: very evocative of Homer's description, and peaceful. In Olimpia we ate in the hotel both nights as we couldn't face the steep walk back up from town and the food was really good. The Archimedes museum was worth a visit: the young lady was extremely informative in explaining how things worked. In Nafplio I would say the walk up to the Palamidi castle IS worth the climb, but if you don't want to walk then do visit the castle by car as it is a fabulous site with tremendous views. I would recommend going for lunch in Palia Epidaurus (the port) after visiting Epidaurus. It's a lovely spot with a choice of restaurants.
