Places like Epidaurus, Mycenae and Olympia are must to see, at least for people with humanistic education. All the three were beautiful, but of all I was most impressed by Olympia. Maybe because I also love sports, maybe because the site was much bigger and organized, but in any case I have Olympia... More >

Olympia was definitely worthy to visit. I would suggest you to stay at least one night there, to be able to see both the village of Olympia and the archaeological site. We first visited the village, relaxed there, had a walk at the square and a delicious lunch at one of the tavernas. The village of... More >

Most people believe that Olympia is only the archaeological site but this is not true. Yes, the site was much impressive and you should definitely visit, but around Olympia you will also find a marvelous green area to explore. We went by car to Olympia and luckily it was early in the morning when... More >

We visited Olympia as part of a tour around Peloponnese. I remember it was a hot day in August and there was a lot of people. I particularly liked the Hermes of Praxitelis statue in the museum. The detail of the statue captured me!! As for the rest of the area, it was indeed impressive if you think... More >

I visited Olympia the summer of 2007 and I found it really nice. It was terribly hot during the day, but the area with the ancient monuments was so crowded. I arrived in Olympia with the bus from Athens and I spent the night there. The trip lasted about 5 hours, but it was worth the effort.
