Capturing all the spirit of the Olympic Games, it’s also the place where the Olympic flame is lit in commemoration of the Games that originated and were held here every four years for a staggering 1,000 years.
Located in the western Peloponnese, Ancient Olympia was one of the most sacred and glorious sanctuaries of the ancient world. And, though only foundations of many of its structures remain, it is still one of the most evocative of Greece’s archaeological sites
Archimedes Museum
A wonderful bonus is the Archimedes Museum, dedicated to the greatest mathematician, physicist, engineer, astronomer and inventor of his time.

Travel in comfort with your private driver to the birthplace of the Olympic Games, a UNESCO World Heritage Site rich in history and mythology.

Archaeological Museum of Olympia
The Archeological Museum of Olympia: Exhibits incredible artifacts from the site. Statue of Zeus: A giant seated figure about 13 m tall. The huge ivory and gold statue was bigger even than that of Athena in the Parthenon. The Museum of the History of the Olympic Games in Antiquity: Since 2004 a new museum is in operation. The museum was based on the collection of Georgios Papastefanou who was the first to believe in the possibility of spreading the Olympic Idea and Education through a museum. The museum of Archimedes (Mathematician) regarded as one of the leading scientists in classical antiquity. A unique museum in the center of ancient Olympia dedicated to the "Greatest Mind" of all time. Visitors will have the opportunity to see replicas of his inventions and to interact with them.
Discover the Philippeion, a unique circular structure in Ancient Olympia, built by Philip II of Macedon to commemorate his victory at the Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BC. This stunning marble and limestone monument, located within the Altis sanctuary, once housed statues of Philip's family, including Alexander the Great. As the only building in Olympia dedicated to human figures rather than gods, the Philippeion stands as a remarkable testament to both art and political ambition in ancient Greece. Explore its remains and immerse yourself in the legacy of one of history's most influential dynasties. The remains of the only circular building on the site once contained gold-and-ivory-covered statues of Philip of Macedon and his family, including his son Alexander the Great. It was built by Philip to commemorate a victory against a combined army of Athenians and Thebans.

5.00This was a great experience to see two amazing historical treasures of Corinth and Olympia. It’s a long trip from Athens but well worth it. Our driver, Niko, was very accommodating and knowledgeable.
Corinth and Olympia Tour with Christos

5.00Our tour guide Christos was fantastic. Very friendly and funny! He shared so much historic information during the drive that we were more than ready to appreciate all the details of Corinth and Olympia. He took us to a castle in Corinth that has been used for 5 different civilizations in over 3000 years! My family (kids 15 and 11 years old) loved it! We had incredible views of both the ancient and modern city. Then our trip to Olympia was soooo smooth that my son said “I slept like a baby” Olympia was beautiful and walking around that historic site was the cherry on the top of the ice cream of our Greek trip. We did some wrestling in the Palestra and practice The Discobolus pose 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Christos was on time, had excellent recommendations and make our long day pass like a breeze!
Incredible day with excellent drivers Chris and Aris.

5.00Where to start about this amazing full day tour! Every second was memorable and our family highly enjoyed the entire day. Is the trip from Athens long? Yes, but so worth it! Our drivers were the incredible Chris and young Aris. Chris is extremely knowledgeable not just about Corinth and Olympia, but Greece and ancient history itself. Aris joined us as a trainee driver but let me assure you he is no novice to history and mythology. Their funny banter kept us entertained throughout the journey and we thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with them. I would definitely rebook with either of them again and recommend the tour and both Chris and Aris 1000%. Bravo gentleman on gaining us as your fans!

5.00Chris is a god! From the moment I read his first text over breakfast (complete with a selfie) I knew we were in for a brilliant day. Chris is hilarious and has such a wealth of knowledge to share. Chris is such a people person and clearly loves what he does. The conversation flowed so naturally it was like travelling with a longtime friend. We talked about everything and anything, and laughed a lot. We had stops at the Corinth Canal and in Corinth itself to sightsee. We were given as much time as we wanted and told to text him whenever we wanted to be picked up and he would be there ready for us. On the way he even stopped by a local cake shop to pick up some traditional pastries for us to try, which were absolutely delicious! The over 3 hour drive to Ancient Olympia from Athens flew by as we enjoyed the beautiful countryside. Once we arrived we had a tasty snack in the clean and friendly cafe before exploring the 2 museums, then on to the site of the ruins itself. The area is massive, filled with beautiful columns, crumbling buildings and the large running field and stadium. We spent over 2 and a half hours walking around and taking some excellent photos. There were very few people there and it almost felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. Then we were picked up by Chris and whisked back to Athens. We had a comfort break on the way back and again Chris surprised us with some snacks for the journey. The vehicle was very comfortable with A/C and plenty of bottled water to combat the heat outside. We were back in Athens and at the doorstep of our hotel before we knew it. It was a fantastic experience and a real highlight of our holiday. Ancient Olympia was something that we were looking forward to seeing but the superstar of the day was Chris, he went above and beyond all expectations and if I could give him more than a 5 star review I would! Absolute legend 😊
