Argos (Greek: Άργος) is a city in the Peloponnese, Greece. It's one of the most ancient settlements in Europe still inhabited.
By bus
You can use a long-distance KTEL bus from Athens (Kifissos Bus Terminal) or via the Isthmos Bus Terminal of Corinth, if you are coming from Patras.
By train
Since January 2011, train services to Argos were suspended and it is unclear when they will resume.
There are 4 taxi ranks in the city: at the bus station, at the Agios Petros square, at the Dimokratias square (or Laiki Agora) and at the hospital. However, the city is well-organised and navigable for a newcomer.
