Parti per un'avventura indimenticabile attraverso il leggendario Parco Nazionale del Monte Olimpo, la mitica dimora degli dei. Conosciuta per la sua bellezza accattivante e la sua presenza misteriosa, l'Olimpo è stato a lungo venerato come santuario divino nell'antica cultura greca. Mentre cammini lungo il sentiero della cascata di Agia Kori, rimarrai ipnotizzato dai dintorni lussureggianti e dalle splendide acque color smeraldo della cascata, offrendo la possibilità perfetta per rilassarti e fare una nuotata rinfrescante nell'abbraccio della natura. Circondato dalla bellezza aspra della montagna, ascolterai anche affascinanti racconti dei misteriosi fenomeni segnalati dai visitatori nel corso dei secoli e approfondirai le origini degli dei dell'Olimpo.
Successivamente, viaggia indietro nel tempo fino all'antica città di Dion, un importante centro religioso devoto a Zeus, il potente padre degli dei. Passeggia tra le antiche rovine di grandi templi, teatri ed edifici pubblici, scoprendo la gloria di questa città sacra un tempo amata da greci e romani.
Per approfondire il tuo legame con la terra, visita il Centro Informazioni del Parco Nazionale dell'Olimpo. Con le sue mostre interattive, acquisirai una comprensione approfondita della biodiversità e del significato culturale del parco, arricchendo la tua esperienza.
Continua il tuo viaggio con una visita al pittoresco villaggio di Litochoro, incastonato ai piedi del Monte Olimpo. Passeggia tra i suoi affascinanti vicoli, ammira la tradizionale architettura macedone e goditi l'atmosfera vivace delle sue piazze e caffè. Litochoro fonde splendidamente la serenità di montagna con la vivace vita locale, rendendolo il luogo perfetto per immergersi nell'essenza della regione.

We had a wonderful visit to Mt Olympus and the surrounding areas of Dion and Litochoro. The hike to the waterfall and the cave was great to get up close and personal to the magic and mystique of the mountain -- it's easy to see why Zeus and the Olympians selected this mountain as their abode! Special thanks to Eva for being an incredible guide, providing insightful and humorous anecdotes about the local legends -- she truly exemplifies the hospitality for which the Greeks are known!
My trip to Mount Olympus was truly one of the most memorable travel experiences I've ever had. As the legendary home of the Greek gods, Olympus offers a unique blend of natural beauty, adventure, and history. A special mention goes to Eva, our guide, whose knowledge, enthusiasm, and professionalism made the journey even more enjoyable. She shared fascinating information about the mountain's history, mythology, flora, and fauna, helping us appreciate Mount Olympus on a much deeper level. Her guidance and encouragement throughout the trip made us feel safe and confident every step of the way. I would also like to thank Lazarus, our driver, who was friendly, punctual, and ensured smooth and comfortable transportation throughout the trip. His excellent driving and warm personality contributed greatly to the overall positive experience. Overall, I would highly recommend a trip to Mount Olympus to anyone who enjoys nature, or Greek history. It offers an incredible adventure, unforgettable views, and a chance to experience one of the most iconic mountains in the world. I would gladly return and explore more of its trails in the future.
Great experience and worth it! Our guide Eva was wonderful and very friendly. Smooth journey and enjoyed all the stops. Highly recommend!
Great trip to get out of the city and see the beautiful countryside. We were met by Giorgios at the square and taken in a lovely air conditioned minibus for about an hour and a bit to Mount Olympus. All the while he was providing information about where we were going and the myths/ legends behind it. A small hike took us to a waterfall where the water was so clear and apparently freezing (I wasn’t brave enough to go in!). We then went to Dion which is an amazing archaeological site and inexpensive at €10 to get in. A short ride after in the bus to Litochoro, where those who wanted to could walk to Enipea canyon with Giorgios. Absolutely stunning views and well worth the short walk in. A relaxed lunch in the town and then the ride back. Fabulous day and would highly recommend it.
Don’t waste your money on this. Mount Olympus was the only interesting bit of this trip and even that felt like a waste of time for a mediocre waterfall, and it made no sense to do the swimming at the beginning of the tour. They you hike a little along to see some sad, put together shrine of a lady who lived on the mountain, highly disappointing. Dion is definitely a scam, where you are paying a €10 entry fee to walk up and down and see nothing! Google it first and look at the pictures of it, trust me (I should have). And don’t get me started on this, the Olympus National Park Information Centre - Talk about lack of things to see, another scam. All in all, I would really like a refund and my waste of a day back, that could have been used for something else.
Was a great tour. Really enjoyed hiking in mt. Olympus and swimming in the waterfall. It was very interesting seeing the ancient town of Dion as well. The tour guide (Evangelia) was very knowledgeable and kind. Would recommend!
This was a wonderful trip that I would highly recommend. Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable, always open to answering questions or giving recommendations. It was a good mix of bus time with some hiking/walking so you didn't feel like you wasted your day sitting on a bus but you also weren't too worn out from the hiking. Mount Olympus was beautiful and we were able to take a quick swim, though the water is very cold. My friend and I chose to save 10 euros and not enter the Dion Archeological Site (as we travel a lot and have seen plenty of ruins that start to all look the same) but we only had an hour there so it was a good spot to rest and eat the lunch we packed. Overall, good value for money.
Our group was comparably small, so the initial hike was very enjoyable. Unfortunately, we got a bit unlucky with the weather at Dion and litochoro. Nevertheless the views of Mount Olympus were stunning, And the tour was a lot of fun. Yannis was a great guide. He shared with us a lot of knowledge and his personal experiences about Mount Olympos and the region. The tour lasted from 8am to 5.30 pm.
Not to be missed! Like being in Paradise at the stunning National Park and Mount Olympus waterfall. Great pick up and drop off point.
Excellent in all respects knowledgeable and very helpful guide George.
