The Don’ts of Visiting Nafplio, Greece

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

I live in Nafplio. I can't believe I didn't see you while you were doing this video. I have been recording videos of Nafplio on my new KZbin channel @MyGreekLifestyle great video my friend!

[@rickybobby1055]

Greece is amazing. Cant go wrong with any of the small towns or islands.

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

You are absolutely right 🇬🇷🧿💙

[@pasvir7831]

Nafplio is one of the most beautiful cities in greece, and very picturesque !

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

It certainly is. So much so that I moved from the UK here to Greece 🇬🇷

[@Mongoose-ct6us]

​@@MovingForwardLifestyle How many days would you recommend for Nafplio? Thank you in advance

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

@@Mongoose-ct6us Nafplio is perfect for a long weekend. 3 days is great, but you could also stay in Nafplio and check out the surrounding area.

[@KaiserTota]

I took a week to visit Greece with three days in Greece, three days in Monemvasia and just one night in Nafplio and I felt like I had to go back soon. Wish I was back there right now. An amazing time.

[@tjj-man4565]

I love Nafplio!! This was my favourite city I’ve visited in Greece!!

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

I used to go to Nafplio for holidays all the time with my family and we loved it so much that we actually moved here.

[@crwalker33]

I went there on your advice. Love that place and am heading back this year! When I was there, they had a hop on hop off bus that runs around the whole town and runs up to the castle. You take hop off at the castle and the driver will tell you when he'll be back. I think it is about an hour which gives you plenty of time to explore the castle. I hired a driver to take me on excursions and back to Athens (rather than public transportation). It was worth it.

[@clnre]

Nafplion is also my favourite place in Greece. We stayed in a hotel overlooking the harbour, opening the curtains when we arrived in our room and seeing the amazing view was a wow moment.

How many days would you recommend for Nafplio?

[@eleniasimop]

When you go there you have the feeling that you want to stay forever. A week it would be nice because they're a lot you may see in the area. You may organise a lot of day trips, for example to the nearby island of Spetses.

[@SuperCharles22]

One of my favorite place in Greece 🥹🥹

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

Mine too 🇬🇷🧿💙

[@francoisbouchard9488]

A couple of years ago, I took the whole family (ex-wife and 4 young adult kids) on an epic tour of Greece. We visited Athens, Santorini, Rhodes (and Istanbul on the way home). All amazing. But our favourite was Nafplio, and that's saying a lot. The wonderful walking path from Nafplio to Karathona beach is an adventure on its own. Would return in a heartbeat.

[@mmms1979]

Visited in 2000 and it was fantastic! Just a great little town to walk around and relax with a great atmosphere.

[@MyMusiclover28]

We went to Greece in 2014. We were there for 10 days and visited many different cities. We rented a car and had a wonderful time exploring as much as we could. We drove A LOT! Nafplio was my favorite place to visit. This video brought back so many lovely memories of that trip ❤ Ty for posting!

[@lorirev2040]

My dtr & i were just in Nafplio as well. What a lovely town. Stayed in Aetoma hotel, no elevators, but delightful staff & delicious bkfst. Take hop on & off bus to Palamidi Fortress, boat to Bourtzi castle

[@maryehr6985]

I was just there 2 days ago! Loved Nafplio!

[@TaqiShah-q6p]

Beautiful place

[@kinasek]

Public busses to the historical sites of Mycene and Epidaurus are not running on weekend (even during peak touristic season). No local travel agency is picking up is offering a tour to Epidaurus. So you won't be able to visit Epidaurus unless you have a car (cab is 70 euros, which is more expansive than car rental). You may still be able to visit Mycene if you take the public bus to Fichti and walk the 4 km to Mycene, which may be challenging under 36oC degree. Also please keep in mind that Greek buses may run very late (i.e. 25 to 30 min) and will stop several time along the way.

[@romancetag9313]

Don’t skip the steps either if you have a chance and ability try it. Just be aware it can get a bit slippery, especially on the way down, wear appropriate shoes. The view as you climb up is one of the best things. There is also a small Nafplio tour bus that goes there, but you will skip part of the view of course.

[@CristinaGreece]

Thank you for representing my city so beautifully. Lovely to have you here!! 💙

[@fashiondesign-pv4tl]

Beautiful

[@ChannyChen9]

I did the Hike up there in September, Was the most beautiful hike! Nafpilo, is my Favorite Greek City!!!!!!

[@MovingForwardLifestyle]

I love to go for hikes all the time in Nafplio. We, the locals hike around Nafplioall time. I have recorded most of my videos while going forward a hike.

Intresting

[@alphafort]

probably the only channel i can thumbs up before it even begins! Great stuff professor.... now i just need to find that portal you use to get around so fast!

[@TheJimNorth]

I love Nafplio… the absolute workout of trekking up-to the Palamidi Fotress, the little boutiques, the restaurants (I think one of my all time favourite gyros grills is there 🤤 ) a gorgeous Italian Gelateria just around the corner from the port. But, you’ve mentioned Tolo for the beech a couple of times. My recommendation is that you base yourself at Tolo for your holiday for exactly that beech, wonderful during the day with great views, amazing ambience in the evening and night with those beachside tavernas and that sunrise in the morning… WOW. And if you’re not up for car hire (like me) then there are regular buses from and to Nafplio which is literally pocket change.

[@mariapanagiotakokolaki9385]

Well done Mark! Love your attitude and explanations, you are really explanatory and well read on the topic of Nafplio!

[@tedspradley]

2:33 Walking down can be just as stressful or more so on your joints/soft tissues. Heart and lungs not so much.

[@joaniedallaire4352]

This brought me back so many memories. When I went to Greece in 2018, I spent three nights in Napflio. Such an amazing town!

[@nickloong]

When I 1st visit Nafplio I didnt went up the stairs, but I went down the stairs. It wa spring and I was only 24 years of age. ;Ever since didnot do it again. I go very often.

[@arporntomaino7509]

Very good video and well explained. My next trip soon. Thank you!

[@maartenaalsmeer]

View from the Palamidi fortress is amazing. Great choice of restaurants too (Stavlos!). Fly to Athens, rent a car, drive for 2 hours and you're in Nafplio.The perfect start for a Peloponnese road-trip, April-May or October!

[@anas-tl5jb]

[@charityshopguitar8790]

Great video you have really captured what to do in Nafplio. It is a bit of an undiscovered gem, at least as far as foreign tourists are concerned. one of my recommendations is to have breakfast in The Kentrikon in Syndagma Square- it is always really good.

[@muhammadhamza4660]

Wow amazing ❤❤❤❤

[@PanDiMia]

If you are in Greece, you can go to Ioannina, the msot beautiful city of Greece and trip to the villages.

[@IrshadJani-m6e]

v nice😊

[@johnylambrou]

Hey there great video. I would like to add to these great advices, the place that the first prime minister, Ioannis Kapodistrias was murdered. He was murdered outside of the Church of St. Spyridon and actually the print from the bullet is still visible in the wall of the Church.

[@To-dikaio-apla]

Maybe also visit Nafpaktos? It is a nice town near Patras with a nice castle as well.

[@cherierobbins1583]

Hi! Great Greece tip, leave this Friday to be in Samos for three months. I am on beautiful island of Samos. A MUST & greenest island of Greece & only 45 minutes to Kusadasi Turkey. I did it last summer & doing it again. To get to Nafplio best way to get there?? Do you go from Athens to Nafplio? Do Northern Greece at same time?

[@talhamanzoor723]

[@aestheticvibes1517]

[@blindpanthervlogs]

Why have I never heard of this town and it sounds so amazing?

[@ck062165]

I had never heard of it either before visiting on a tour of Mycenae and Epidaurus.

[@ΔημοςΛιακος]

How often have you been in Greece? Your accent is very good btw 👍👏

[@aimeedegroot6245]

Looks really beautiful will be there soon and getting more excited. As far as $$ how much do you suggest bringing in Euros from U.S. to start a trip? Do you get euros at a bank prior, or in a US airport, or in Athens airport upon arrival ( kiosks/ currency exchange or ATM’s)? Find certain ATM’s in Greece have less fees? Do find major credit cards accepted at merchants, restaurants by ride services through Athens and the Islands?

[@joshlunt7827]

Great orange joke, Mark 😁

What is a good hotel to stay at in Nafplio with my elderly mother? I would like a hotel close to the beach. Thanks!

I spent 15 days in Nafplio years ago, and the stairs to the fortress are not to be taken lightly when it's 40 celcius ....

We were there last year at this time. Somewhat quiet town. It actually felt Americanized in the square but nicely so. It didn't seem foreign. The ice cream was great at the shop located on the left just before the area where we hoped back on the tour bus.
