Parga's distillery is famous since 1894. Nowadays the fourth generation is maintaining with love the same tradition. At Parga's distillery one can taste our ouzo together with traditional Greek meze and our liqueurs at Amicos Bar.

This is a long uphill walk to get to but well worth the effort. Aside from standard cocktails there is an ouzo based cocktail list - we tried several over our three visits and all were amazingly good. The view across Valtos is fantastic and a great spot to see the sunset over the hillside. The menu is varied and we ate various fress seafood dishes - the grilled prawns are excellent. Other dishes that were not on the menu but available from the days catch were fresh Grouper and a marvellous seafood soup. I highly recommend this for both cocktails and food. It was a little more expensive than some other places we ate but well worth it. You can avoid the long uphill walk by taking a cab to Bar Med and walking down the road for about 2 minutes.

Reviewed By Leicestercouple007
Oh what a day, I booked a day trip which, went from the harbour at 10am We sailed up along the little beaches until we join the river estuary and sailed up into it, taking in the beautiful scenery with swallows, swifts and house martins flying high and low across the river, just taking a dive and skimming the river surface for a well needed drink. It was beautiful to watch as I sat at the front of the boat taking dozens of photos. We then headed back out to sea and carried on along the coast to a cave where the captain steered the boat into it. A few tourists on the boat dived in and swam in the clear blue water. I couldn’t resist either and found it refreshing and quiet mentally moving too! We then headed to a little beach for lunch and swimming, the captain said “ be really for 5pm as we will head back home”. True to Greek time, the captain returned at 6pm! So typical of Greece! We entered the port just as the sun was setting, an amazing day enjoyed by all.
7. Nicopolis Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 213 reviews
Nicopolis is an ancient city that was built on 31 B.C by Octavios after the batle of Aktio. If you translate it from Greek to English Nicopolis, means the city of victory. It is placed just outside the town of Preveza. It is great for someone that is interested in ancient history to visit that place. Also the museum that they recently built near the ancient city of Nicopolis is one of the most moderate and intresting musuems in Greece.

The site is where Augustus founded the city after defeating Mark Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium. The museum is located near the site and can be visited with the same ticket. The museum has a rich collection of exhibits, from the 1st century BC to the 7th century AD. Exceptional early Christian mosaics can be seen on the site.

Off the main route but well worth the effort. Start at the monastery then climb the 421 steps (yes we counted them) On top you will find the superb monument combined with views that will take your breath away (once you have got it back from climbing the steps)
