Why this order?
Nafplio creates an accessible first Peloponnese base, Leonidio shifts the route south through the east-coast mountain landscape, and Monemvasia provides a distinctive fortified coastal finish.

Evidence and limits
Visit Greece documents Nafplio, Leonidio, and Monemvasia as distinct Peloponnese destinations and provides access context for each. The exact road sequence and overnight allocation are IKARU editorial pacing; verify current road, bus, parking, weather, and local access conditions.
This is an editorial route, not a published real-traveler trip. No first-party traveler source is attached to this record.

Shorten
With less time, use two bases rather than turning the eastern Peloponnese into a sequence of one-night stops.
Extend
Add nights along the existing east-coast route before branching west; Peloponnese driving times and mountain roads reward a slower plan.
