The Peloponnese Region
How many of these places are familiar to you: Elafonisos, Richea, Mystras, Sparta, Tenaro, or Gytheio?
Greece has so much to offer beyond Athens and the Cyclade islands (Santorini, Mykonos, etc.), we wonder why this region isn't as popular. People say that Simos beach on Elafonisos might be Greece's best beach! I bet you did not know that...
In this episode, we'll show you what might be Greece's best kept secret: the Peloponnese region. We hope that watching this episode, and seeing all of the beautiful sights, will make you consider a visit to the Peloponnese to experience it for yourself!

Ridiculous! :) Thanks, Joe!! We are happy to be documenting and sharing the beautiful sights with all of you!

Nik Man thanks for watching! We can’t wait to visit Greece again ☀️
Peloponnesus has endless choices to enjoy a fantastic vacation and not only. My No 1 choice when in Greece for vacation.
Agreed!!! 👍👍👍
My grandfather came in Crete from Peloponnese almost a hundred years ago, and today you showed me his land!Thank you great work.
The Peloponnese is a beautiful place, and Crete is beautiful, too! Hope you stay tuned for Episode 009 where we explore the Chania region!
There are many beautiful and interesting locations to visit in Greece, but probably the best one is Peloponnese. It has everything, like a miniature of the entire country, and it is very varied.
Gerassimos Fourlanos we agree wholeheartedly! We cannot wait to visit again 👍

Thank you so much for this video, it was awesome! I am a Greek-Australian and my parents were born and raised on the west coast of the Mani Peninsula. It's such a buzz when people like yourselves discover this magical, mystical, beautiful region. It's the real Greece - pure and unspoiled. I absolutely adore it.

Yessss!!! Thank you for watching 🤗 Happy holidays! Please stay safe and healthy 🙏
Good video guys and the girl looks very healthy
Thanks for watching!
peloponnesos area is so underated.Although it has everything from exotic beaches, mountains, waterfalls,importan ancient monuments
We couldn’t agree more!! Thanks for watching, hope you subscribe and enjoy our other videos 🤗☀️
Agree. Amazing!
Elafonisos translates as "deer island", no idea where that name came from.
Mani is awesome for strong sun light enthusiasts and with some outstanding history behind it. Like famous pirates and something that Greeks are so proud of, Maniates (ppl of Mani) fighting spirit that kept Turk conquerors away for centuries. Even their women fought along with men. Also a thing about Mani towers-small fortreses, back in those days each family had one, to protect its members from other families that didnt had good relations with... in other words vendeta issues.
Too bad you didnt had time to visit Monemvasia (translate as "only one way to reach") or Mt Taygetos pyramid like peak, 18th century gun powder villages and Olympia.
Maybe next time :)
babis z wow! Thanks for all of that information! We really enjoyed Mani. We visited Monemvasia as well and thought it was absolutely stunning!! The footage of our visit to Monemvasia is in our other Greece episode 😉
babis z Here is our video where we visited Monemvasia: th-cam.com/video/so2AjSmsfRo/w-d-xo.html Hope you enjoy!!
babis z 2:10 of the video they show Monemvasia
elafonisos had deers in antiquity
I want to see Monemvasia. I want to know what's behind the arched doorway in the pink wall. I want to know what the white building with the round roof is at the bottom right and if it's surrounded by water or a field. I want to go!!
Go go go, Carol! Or, we'll just have to go back and open the door in the pink wall ourselves :)
It is a church dear, Monemvasia is a place you cannot describe you have to live it breath it Actually all of The Hellenic Republic is like that
One thing you should know the LIGHT in Greece is like no other place in the world.
One does not only see history ,you feel it also,all around you.
From the moment your foot steps onto its soil
yperoxo bravo
cafesousoutsa thanks so much for watching!! Hope you’ll subscribe to our channel for more travel videos ❤️
Great video. One question, the night shot of the sky, where was it and how did you record it?
Thanks so much for watching!! It was at taken while at Eumelia (agrotourism B&B). I’ll have to let my cameraman answer your question about he recorded it... he’s the expert!
@@AdventureViv Thank you for the information.
can you guys recommend some of the local restaurants farm to table in the peloponnese?
We can put you in touch with a local who can suggest local restaurants! Send me an email adventureViV @ gmail.com 🤗🤗🤗
Congratulations, you find the real Greece.
A Special tip for all. If you press sea urchin, dry the foot and spread olive oil on it. Sleep for two hours or read a book, after that there will be no thorns! Greek experience ...
Απόλλων Θηρευτής fantastic tip! Thank you for sharing :) Hope you enjoyed our video and subscribe to our channel! ☀️💗🐠
Octopus is not calamari, but great video!
Thanks for the clarification!!
What time of year was this filmed?
Thank you for watching! This was filmed in early October ☀️
This is where my family is from
How lovely! Thank you for watching!
All the places in this video are in the state of Lakonia, a small region of 90,000 people in the southeast corner of the Peloponnese. For the best experience of Greece, limit yourself to this small area and explore it all.
Thank you for this information! As I'm searching the whole peninsula I see that I have to limit myself to a smaller region as the whole is too big to find a base.
watching as a family - so good!! Thanks for the censoring. 😜
Thanks, Kelly! We do our best to be a family-friendly channel ;)
What time of year were you there?
We visited in October! It was perfect ☀️
AdventureViV great! I was hoping to be there this past October but obviously Covid wasn’t going to allow that. Thx for the fun videos!!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the videos!! Hope you get to visit this year 🤗🤗🤗

You can see in youtube: (the exterminator of ancient Sparta).
Thank you for watching!
I prefer the areas that aren't so barren!
There are so many beautiful parts of the country! ☀️ Thank you for watching!
Lovely, but learn to pronounce the Greek place names properly.
Thank you for watching! I would love to learn! Can you please assist? Thank you!!
@@AdventureViv : Yes, if there are Greek place names you’re incorporating in to a video, send me a list and I’ll record the pronunciations for you. Then you’ll just have to listen carefully to replicate the sounds!
Meni? No ... Mani ... (pronounced as if you are saying money$$)
