The Medieval City of Mystras
Visit one of the most spectacular historic sites in the Peloponnese on this tour. Sit back and enjoy the views of the countryside on the hour-plus drive from the coast. The walled castle-town of Mystras, set onto the steep slopes of Mount Taygetos, is visible from afar. A winding road brings you to the castle gate, where you’ll begin your guided walk. The castle, built by a Frankish Crusader, is the oldest part of the site, with its original 13th-century design largely intact.
