Day tour to Ancient Olympia from Athens
Your Full Dream Tour to Olympia begins with a pickup from Athens or Piraeus Port and continues with a scenic drive towards the Peloponnese to the legendary archaeological site of Ancient Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games. First stop will be the Corinth Canal, where you will have a chance to take pictures of this marvel of architecture.
Here, you will explore the ruins of the Temple of Zeus, once home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and walk through the original Olympic Stadium, where athletes competed over 2,000 years ago. You’ll also visit the Philippeion, the Temple of Hera, and the ancient training areas where Olympians prepared for the games.
After exploring the ruins, your journey continues to the Archaeological Museum of Olympia, home to impressive artifacts, including the famous statue of Hermes by Praxiteles. This collection brings the history of Olympia to life, showcasing sculptures, tools, and treasures from the ancient sanctuary.
