Journey to Ancient Olympia — the birthplace of the Olympic Games. Nestled in a lush green valley between the Alfeios and Kladeos rivers, Olympia has been a place of pilgrimage since prehistoric times. Every four years in antiquity, athletes from across the Greek world gathered here to compete in honour of Zeus.
Visit the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Temple of Hera, and the sacred Olympic Stadium — where the Olympic flame is still lit every four years before being carried to the host nation. The extraordinary Archaeological Museum of Olympia houses the priceless bronze statue of Hermes by Praxiteles and the breathtaking marble pediments of the Temple of Zeus.
Your private chauffeur will collect you from your Athens hotel and return you in comfort after a day immersed in the history of sport, mythology, and ancient Greece.
