How To Get There
From Athens' KTEL Kifisou station, five buses each day travel to Argos, stopping—and perhaps requiring a bus change—at the Corinth Canal. Typically, the bus travel lasts just less than three hours. There are also regular buses from Nafplio to Argos (approximately 30 minutes). As well from Argos, there are frequent routes for other villages in Argolida and daily routes for Mycenae, Ancient Epidauros, Nemea and more places.

Traveling to Argolida by car provides the flexibility to explore the region at your own pace. From Athens, you can take the National Road 8 (E94) towards Corinth and then follow signs for Argos and Tripolis. Shortly after the Ancient Corinth sign, the road divides. Take the Argos exit and drive until it reaches the main road (the old Corinth-Argos road). Turn right, cross the bridge, and you'll soon enter Argos.
