Discover the mysteries of Monemvasia with this 2.

Explore the enchanting secrets of Monemvasia with a 2.5-hour private guided tour of the Castle and its picturesque Upper Town. Over the centuries, Monemvasia has transformed into a renowned castle-town and a vital hub of trade and military operations during the Byzantine Empire. Situated on the rugged southern side of the island, the entire town is enclosed by walls on both sides, extending down to the sea. Throughout its history, Monemvasia has witnessed various cultural influences, including the Venetians, Turks, and even the Pope himself!

Today, Monemvasia stands as a living medieval castle-town, considered one of the most stunning in the Mediterranean. Accompanied by a certified guide, you will wander through the castle’s narrow cobbled paths and beneath vaulted arches, marveling at the historic architecture. Inside the old walls, traditional shops and tavernas await your exploration, as you delve into the castle’s rich history, culture, and mythology.

After exploring the Old Town, embark on a challenging trek through the Upper Town. The steep cliffs in the heart of the castle soar nearly 1,000 feet, offering breathtaking views and a visit to the Church of Aghia Sofia as your reward. Depending on your accommodation and advice from your travel specialist, a private transfer to the site can be arranged for your convenience.

Please note that the trail to the Upper Town can be slippery and demanding, so it is advisable to wear sturdy shoes for this excursion.
