Recent posts got good stuff around Nafplio (Epidarvos and Mycene) tho to reach Nafplio my route
will be leaving Ancient Olympia to get to Nafplio ,a drive of some 200 kilometers heading south then east

As I will get away early to make it a full day what would be suggestions to look at on that route

As I have a hotel booked in Nafplio for two nights and leaving Olympia say 8am to arrive Nafplio say 6pm then two and a half hour drive opens up some 7hrs of stops or stop some where interesting
