Four days of UNESCO ruins from Athens, with Epidaurus, Mycenae, Olympia, Delphi, Meteora, hotel stays, guide, and key meals.
“What a fantastic trip to see a little bit of Greece (over 2500km), learn so much of the history & myths, and with a small group of travellers.”
Pre-booked ticket for Ancient Olympia plus timed access to the Archaeological Museum and flexible entry to the Olympic Games Museum.
“Experiencing the history was absolutely breathtaking. Standing on the field of the first Olympic games was shattering.”
A 2-hour Ancient Olympia VR and audio tour with 3D reconstructions, 15 monuments, and self-guided navigation from a virtual map.
“This virtual reality tour made a huge difference for our tour around the Olympia archeological site. We were able to understand the magnitude of the buildings and events and the recording/voiceover of the tour kept our interest with so many amazing facts. There was no need to take a guided tour with a huge group of people. The devices were very easy to use, too. The people at the Olympia Back in Time office (easy to find) where we picked up our devices were absolutely wonderful and very kind. I highly recommend touring this way. I just wish all the archeological sites had this option!Read more”
Cruise-day transfer from Katakolo to Ancient Olympia with a phone VR audio tour in 10 languages, plus museum and ruins time.
“It helped us to get to old Olympia and then back to the port.”
3 days from Athens to Epidaurus, Mycenae, Olympia, and Delphi, with guided history, hotel stays, and included admissions on an air-conditioned coach.
“I had a wonderful time on this trip and would highly recommend it! The guide was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. I learned so much about Greek history which I loved! The driver was also great and gave us a very smooth trip. The whole tour was very well organised and the hotels were very good. Highly recommened!”
Prebook Olympia entry plus an offline audio guide on your phone. Walk the ruins at your pace, from the Gymnasium to Pheidias.
“I reserved the audio guide as well as the VR glasses from another company. The combination of both audios plus the VR experience made this a fantastic tour.”
Half-day bus from Katakolo to Ancient Olympia, with time to explore the Olympic ruins, museums, and Olympia village on your own pace.
“You need to be there 10 minutes before, otherwise you will miss the bus. Its not really a tour, its a ride to Olympia.”
Hop on and off between Katakolo cruise port and Pyrgos with 5 stops, multilingual audio, and easy pacing for a low-stress Peloponnese day.
“clear instructions. easy booking. last minute availability. Great price.”
4 days seeing Mycenae, Epidaurus, Olympia, Delphi and Meteora from Athens, with 4-star hotels, entry fees, and a licensed guide.
“Joy was an excellent guide. Funny. Informed. Warm. Helpful. The hotels were convenient, though the sameness of the food at each stop got a little repetitive. Well organized schedule, so we saw a lot of Ancient Greece in a surprisingly concise period of time.”
Half-day Olympia from Katakolon: Zeus Temple, Olympic stadium and museum, Klio’s Honey Farm tastings, then a swim at Agios Ilias.
“This trip was expensive and really involved transportation to Olympia(we had to pay our admission price and do a self guided tour). We opted out of the honey farm(we also would have had to pay for that). The guide and driver were both professional and kind. The tour guide was fairly knowledgeable. She was difficult to hear at times.”
Private half-day Olympia tour from Katakolon: UNESCO ruins, Olympia museum, Klio’s honey farm tasting, beach time, and monastery views.
“We had a great day with our driver Nancy. She was a safe and professional driver who gave us great information about the site we visited. Plus she was great company to be around. We spent some time in Olympia after the touring the Olympic site and had a great time all around.”
Private Katakolon shore excursion to Olympia, a family winery for wine and olive oil tasting, and Agios Ilias Beach, with port pickup.
“Had an amazing day with Stathis! We booked him over a cruise excursion. He picked us up right at the port in Katakolo to, in his words, “minimize our walking”. We avoided long lines at Olympia under his guidance. He then drove us to a local winery and olive oil marker. The wine was phenomenal, but the olive oil and their selections are out of this world. Magna Grecia has a multi-year record of one of the best olive oil lineups in the world by the way. He then drove us to a beautiful beach for a drip and drink. Should we be back in Katakolo and Olympia, we’ll be…”
Private Katakolon trip to Ancient Olympia, winery tastings, the Olympia museum, and Agios Ilias Beach, with port pickup for up to 4.
“Andreas is excellent and knowledgeable. She catered the tour for us and it turned out fabulous! Definitely book this one. We toured local town on our way to Ancient Greece where we went to see and then the museum. Afterwards went to a local olive farm where we tried different olive oils, olives, pastes and learn the process. Very generous amounts of tasting here and was free. Next we went to a local vineyard of three generations that just went public last year. Excellent wine. We sat at a quiet table outside overlooking the city and vineyards and drank three samples of wine while.having a huge charcuterie board of assorted…”
4 days across Greece with Delphi, Olympia, Mycenae, Epidaurus, and Meteora, plus hotel meals and included entries.
“Meteora was spectacular. However, would have enjoyed more if we could stop at certain strategic points for taking in the views and take some more pictures.”
A private half-day Olympia tour from Katakolon with AC pickup, smart timing, and optional olive oil, honey, and winery stops.
“Great little tour if your on a cruise. Got to spend plenty of time at Olympia, snack and beers after, then off for an olive oil tasting and capped off with late lunch on the coast.”
