Explore Nafplio

Just a two-hour drive from Athens, the former capital is one of the most beautiful towns in Greece. With two mountains crowned by medieval fortresses that overlook the town, it is a great place to visit and hiring a car is an ideal way to see the sights.

Nafplio is full of restaurants, shops, cafes and hotels. No matter what type of holiday you are looking for or how much money you are looking to spend, this town has it all. Book car hire in Nafplio for the freedom to drive round and take in all of the old buildings or the numerous ancient sites in the area.

The best time to see the city is first thing in the morning, get up early and take a drive around the winding scenic roads. You will get a real sense of being one of the locals as they greet you whilst setting up for the day. It's also a nice place to go in the early evening, especially during the summer months when it has the feeling of a county fair.
