Highlights
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.
