When your cruise stops at the picturesque port of Katakolon, a visit to Ancient Olympia is a must. With a private driver, travel comfortably from the fishing village to the birthplace of the Olympic Games – the sacred grounds where athletes trained, honored the gods, and competed in events that inspired the world. In this five-hour tour, explore the archaeological site and its iconic monuments, including the Temple of Zeus, the Temple of Hera, and the ancient Olympic Stadium. Continue to the Archaeological Museum of Olympia, where masterpieces such as the Hermes of Praxiteles, the Nike of Paionios, and the temple sculptures await. Afterwards, enjoy free time in the modern town of Olympia to shop, stroll the charming streets, or relax at our own centrally located restaurant and café bar. Before returning, stop at the idyllic beach of Agios Andreas for a refreshing swim or a moment by the sea. A unique blend of history, culture, and relaxation.

Afterwards you will enjoy safe and comfortable transfer in our luxurious Mercedes vehicles. During your transfer you can enjoy a free wi-fi on board but we will also provide you with a local guide book with all the necessary information about the archaeological site & Museum of Ancient Olympia, free of charge.

Archaeological Site of Olympia
After an approx. 30 min of enjoyable ride you will reach Ancient Olympia. We will drop you off just outside of the world-wide famous Archaeological Site of Ancient Olympia. Enjoy several hours of free time to explore the site and monuments at your own pace(*the professional licensed guide can be arranged for additional charge if requested). See the gymnasium and Palaestra, where athletes practiced leading up to competition, and feel millennia of energy as you enter the ancient stadium, where ancient Greece’s finest athletes strove to honor the gods through the Olympic ideal. Marvel at the Temple of Zeus, where the famous golden statue of the god—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World—once stood. See the Leonidaion, a hotel built in 330 BC to host distinguished guests of the games, and delve even deeper into the history of the world's greatest athletic competition with displays and original artifacts at the Olympia Museum.

George and John were great. Took care of us well. They were very proud of their village. Very beautiful. My only issue was that my guide was to stay with us in museum and the ruins. I had requested a licensed tour guide and was under the impression I would have one. However, George could not give us a guided tour. We missed out on information on the museum and ruins. There is so much to know, we missed out on the information. A person would benefit more if the tour had a tour guide.

Our Mediterranean cruise included a stop in Katakolon and while our knowledge of the area was limited, we decided to book a last minute tour. We’re so glad that we did because it turned out to be one of our favorite excursions of the trip! The Olympia Museum and Archeological Site were amazing, but it was the hospitality of Christos and Nassos that really made our day. They welcomed us like family and made sure that we had the best time even though we had some unseasonable rainy weather. Their communication was on point, the cars were comfortable and they were eager to impart their local knowledge from growing up in the area. In addition to historical Olympia, there is a beautiful town, local olive oil and honey farms plus beautiful beaches to discover and they were happy to customize an itinerary catered to us. Lunch at the family restaurant is not to be missed, best souvlaki and gyro ever! We can’t say enough good things about them, first-class company, just book your tour and you will not be disappointed!

Christos was an excellent guide for our time in Katakolon, Ancient Olympia, the Olive Temple, and Vrinoitis Beach. Christos was very flexible and helpful in finding activities that worked for our group. We were given the option of having coffee and snacks or lunch in Olympia, but Christos gave us options for additional tours of olive mills and wineries. When we decided to go to the olive mill, Christos arranged us for a tour and lunch that has been one of the highlights of our trip. We finished our time with drinks and a swim at the Vrinoitis Resort. During our drive time, we had great conversation with Christos that educated us on the people of the region and Greece. Our time really highlighted the beauty and close-knit group of this community.
