What to expect

The Olympia archeological site looks like a passage into space and time. On this trip you will see many attractions, including a museum that houses a beautiful sculpture of antiquity. Your first stop is the Corinth canal, a canal that was finally built in 1890 connecting the central Mediterranean Sea to the Aegean Sea.

The Olympia archeological site, one of the largest in the country, gave the people one of the richest sets of monuments and works of art such as Hermes of Praxiteles. Here you'll see, in addition to the stadium, the temples of Hera and Zeus, the Philippion, the Council house, the laboratory of Feidias and its museum.

After a dip in history, you'll go for a dip on one of the most beautiful beaches in the Peloponnese, located near ancient Olympia where you will also have lunch before your trip back to Athens.
