Our Story

About Peloponnese Compass

Peloponnese Compass was created for travelers who want to experience the Peloponnisos beyond the obvious highlights—without wasting time on guesswork. The peninsula is packed with contrasts: rugged mountains and quiet coves, lively seaside towns and stone villages, ancient sites and modern food scenes. It’s the kind of place where a small detail—when to go, where to park, which road is worth the view, what time a beach gets shade—can turn a good trip into a great one.

Our mission is simple: to offer clear, practical, and trustworthy Peloponnisos (GR) tips and guides that help you plan with confidence. Whether you’re visiting for a long weekend from Athens, building a slow road trip across regions, or returning to explore a different corner of the peninsula, Peloponnese Compass aims to be the tool you open first.

What we focus on

Peloponnese Compass is not about vague inspiration or recycled lists. We focus on the questions real travelers actually ask:

Our Mission

  • Which area makes sense for your time of year and travel style?
  • How do you connect beaches, villages, and archaeological sites into a realistic route?
  • What should you know before driving certain roads, visiting popular spots, or chasing “hidden” places?
  • Where can you find local experiences—tavernas, viewpoints, walks, and low-key beaches—without overcomplicating the plan?

To learn more about what we cover and explore our latest content, visit our homepage where you'll find comprehensive guides and resources.

You’ll find destination guides, suggested itineraries, seasonal advice, and practical travel notes designed to make each day easier. We also share context that matters: why a place feels the way it does, what makes a region unique, and how to enjoy it respectfully.

Our approach to trust

We know travel content only helps if it’s reliable. That’s why we prioritize clarity, accuracy, and transparent expectations. When a place is best at sunrise, crowded in August, or easier with a short hike, we say so. When a route is scenic but slow, we note it. When a “secret spot” is not actually secret anymore, we’ll help you decide if it’s still worth the detour.

Our Values

Whenever possible, our recommendations are grounded in on-the-ground experience, careful checking of practical details, and a commitment to keeping guides up to date. Travel changes—hours, access, parking, and popularity can shift—so Peloponnese Compass is built as a living resource that improves over time.

Who Peloponnese Compass is for
