The road to Mycenae is quite safe and it will take you only a couple of hours to get by car from Athens Airport. We made a stop there on our way to Tolo. The Lion Gate impressed me the most, while the rest of the town is mostly ruins of neighborhoods. I remember it was very hot that day and we were... More >
It was not difficult at all to drive to Mycenae from Athens. The road was good and straight, no big winds or narrow spots. Rented a car online about two months before and got the car right after our arrival in Athens airport. The plan was to drive in the Peloponnese for a week and then go for... More >

It was a hot, hot, really hot day when we took an excursion to Mycenae, the oldest of the most famous ancient sites in Greece.
Mycenae is located on the slopes of a hill and you have to climb up through narrow footpaths. Fortunately, due to the altitude, the wind blows quite strong in Mycenae,... More >

We spent last weekend in Nafplion and went an excursion to Mycenae, just 30 minutes away. I was impressed by the archaeological site. Only imagine that people, centuries and centuries ago, could build so high walls with barely no tools and machines at all!! The museum was very interesting and... More >

We didn't spend but a few hours in Mycenae. It was an impressive archaeological site in the Peloponnese, somewhere close to Argos. We went there because we had taken a daily tour from Athens to Korinthos, Mycenae and Nafplion. I felt like living in the past there, while I was strolling around the... More >
Mycenae really impressed me and my family. The cyclopean walls built with the huge rocks. The tombs were also impressive becasue of the way they were constructed like a bee hive. The new museum was great, very informative and fantastic artefacts. Mycenae is a must see site of... More >
