Itinerario
A su llegada a la terminal de cruceros, su equipo profesional le dará una calurosa bienvenida y le guiará en un viaje inolvidable. Siéntate y relájate cómodamente mientras viajas por la pintoresca campiña del Peloponeso, pasando por olivares, colinas ondulantes y pintorescos pueblos en camino a la Antigua Olimpia, el legendario lugar de nacimiento de los Juegos Olímpicos.
Retroceda casi 3.000 años en el corazón de la antigua gloria deportiva. Este lugar sagrado fue sede de los primeros Juegos Olímpicos en 776 a. C., e incluso hoy en día, la llama olímpica se enciende aquí antes de cada Juego moderno. Pasea por el Templo de Zeus, una vez hogar de una de las Siete Maravillas del Mundo Antiguo, y visita el Templo de Hera, donde la Antorcha Olímpica comienza su viaje. Pasee por el antiguo gimnasio, los campos de entrenamiento de atletas y el estadio olímpico original, que aún resuena con el espíritu de la competencia y se utilizó una vez más durante los Juegos Olímpicos de Atenas 2004. ¡Corre en la misma pista que los atletas antiguos y modernos!
Profundiza en tu viaje con una visita a uno de los museos más famosos de Grecia, donde el pasado se desarrolla con sorprendente claridad. Adéntrate en galerías donde la historia cobra vida a través del exquisito Hermes by Praxiteles, junto a esculturas atemporales, artefactos preciosos y objetos cotidianos que revelan el ritmo de la vida antigua. Cada exhibición teje hilos de mitología, tradición atlética y legado divino, ofreciendo una comprensión más rica del mundo por el que acabas de caminar entre las ruinas. Es el complemento ideal para su visita al sitio, agregando profundidad, contexto y maravilla en cada momento.
Disfrute de su tiempo libre en el tranquilo pueblo de Olimpia moderna, hogar de menos de 600 residentes. Pasea por sus acogedoras calles llenas de tiendas locales, tabernas familiares y boutiques artesanales, donde podrás saborear delicias griegas o encontrar recuerdos únicos para recordar tu visita.
Después de un día lleno de historia, cultura y momentos inolvidables, relájese cómodamente a su regreso al puerto. Con más de 20 años de experiencia en la elaboración de excursiones amigables para cruceros, garantizamos una experiencia perfecta con el regreso a tiempo a su barco y sin preocupaciones en el camino.

My partner and I booked the Cruise-Friendly Olympia Tour from Katakolon Port because we wanted an easy excursion without worrying about getting back to the ship on time. Everything was organized well from the meeting point to the return journey. The drive to Olympia was comfortable, giving us time to enjoy the countryside before reaching the archaeological site. Walking through the ruins while imagining the first Olympic Games was a memorable experience. We also appreciated having enough free time to visit the museum at our own pace instead of feeling rushed. The schedule worked perfectly for cruise passengers, and we returned with plenty of time before boarding. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable day.
Very good tour great experience and great guide. Work good with our schedule to go back to the cruise.
The seaside town of Katakolon is a beautiful area to walk, shop and dine. We thoroughly enjoyed the bus trip with our guide to Olympia. Lots of myths and history. I would recommend this trip.
we arrived in Katakolo, then travelled through beautiful green farm countryside to the Archaeological Site of Olympia and Archaeological Museum of Olympia , enjoying our tour guide, Theodora was great ! Her explanation of all this history , very informative and interesting, a great visit … then a ride though the town of Olympia and countryside back to our ship. We would highly recommend this excursion and tour guide Theodora !
Theodora was our guide. She had so much knowledge of Ancient Greece and actually grew up in this area so was able to share a lot of inside info into the culture. This tour was a good balance of history, culture and seeing the villages of Greece. Highly recommend.
Great tour , very knowledgeable tour guide. Would have liked to have extra time in the old town . You could skip the olive , oil and honey tasting to spend more time in town but samples very good
Our tour guide Theodora was excellent and very knowledgeable and we would recommend her as she was great!
To start with, not well organized. Thought I was with a different local tour company based on pre-tour information provided. Other people on the tour had the same problem.. Kept trying to find my tour. Called the tel number on my booking for local guide, got an answering service and didn't hear back until tour was over and then told to go to a brown bus? Person from "JAT", who turns out to be the local tour company and at the cruise site, was on the phone a lot before I could ask if I was on a JAT tour as deadline for tour had passed and not many folks around to ask. Tour had 40 people on it and booked, I assume, with Viator. In past much smaller numbers and very good experiences with Viator. Many of us on tour wondered if last minute changes were made to combine groups. Price of tour was way too high. Olympia site and museum at the site, on its own, not as interesting as other tours I took.....over-crowded, boring. too much time in a long line-up to even get into the museum and way too long overall for what there was to see. Had difficulty understanding what my tour guide was saying, as did many others. He only paid attention to those right around him. Hard to find the tour guide at times as he didn't have any sign which most guides have to hold high, made more difficult since the site was so crowded. He didn't add any interesting details on the surrounding area or the tour site. Maybe the guide had been an academic in history but again very boring tour. Given the price paid, should have at least had a bottle of water provided in the bus when we left the cruise site as a hot day. Even when tour was over and looking for bus, very confusing instructions given to find the bus at a certain time for return trip. The location of the bus ended up being different from what we were told initially. Some folks took awhile to find the bus. I took 4 tours through Viator of which 3 were very good. This one, for the price, was so disappointing will look at other options in future. Viator should be refunding a portion of the amount charged - not something I have ever asked for from a tour company before but such a large disappointment at the end of my travels.
We regret to hear that our services did not meet your expectations. Please allow us to address the concerns raised: 1. Please do not refer to other people unless you officially represent them. Please also note that your negative feedback is the only one received from the entire group. 2. The pickup location at the bus parking area of the cruise port has never changed and was clearly mentioned in the pickup instructions. 3. You booked a standard group tour. It has never been advertised as a private or even semi-private tour, which you insisted on when meeting your guide. We believe this may be where your disappointment stems from. 4. The price of this tour is always available on the Viator and Tripadvisor websites. 5. If local culture and archaeology are not of interest to you, you are free to book any other activity. The archaeological museum is clearly stated in the tour itinerary. 6. Not many guides in Europe speak American English; most speak accented international English. For better understanding and appreciation of different accents, we recommend travelling abroad more often. 7. No beverages or food is provided or listed among the tour inclusions. 8. Your refund request has been declined, as all services were delivered as advertised. When booking with Viator in the future, we strongly recommend basing your expectations on the tour description, itinerary, and inclusions rather than on personal assumptions. Safe travels
Theodora was great! We got off a bit late waiting on a family. I also think there were people added last minute. Group seemed large. I thought we were only supposed to have 40 max. Also since we had to wait on others we did not get an hour in Olympia. Pickup was great and got back to boat in plenty of time.
Tour guide was amazing. Worth the money. Would recommend to everyone. Really great information. Food was great !
