It is a superb activity whether you are good at sports or not. The visit begins in what served as the athletes' village; our guide explained the history of the building and its founder to us. Afterward, there are a few exercises in the form of games. Next, we go to the Panathenaic Stadium to learn its history, take a short run, and take photos. We all had fun doing the little games as a family, both the very athletic and the less fit. The guide is also very interesting to listen to. One of my children does not particularly like guided tours, and he loved this one. This is an interactive and interesting visit; I highly recommend it to you.
Thank you to Myrto and Alternative Athens for a fantastic Olympic Games workout and Panathenaic Stadium tour. It was such a fun and informative tour for our family, including three children. We all enjoyed the Olympic events and running at the Stadium. Thank you for an amazing time. Highly recommend.
We did the Olympic Games Workout with Evi and had such a great time. She was incredibly knowledgeable about Greece, the history of the Olympics, and the proper form and techniques used in the ancient events. As a competitive family, we really enjoyed the mini games and challenges she organized for us. It was both educational and active, and Evi made it fun for all ages. A fantastic way to experience Athens in a completely different way. Highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys learning while moving and having fun together!
Great experience. Our guide was very engaging and made it very fun. Great for families of all ages. I would definitely recommend
We had two great private tours last week and our whole family including two teenagers had a great time. We did a private Olympic Experience which allowed us to fit this in during our one free afternoon. The guide was very knowledgeable and she kept us all motivated to learn more about the history as well as the specific techniques. On our last day we had many hours before our flight so we arranged to be picked up at Piraeus and had a tour of the Athens Riviera, Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon. The guide made sure to show us sights that we would never have discovered on our own including the Stavros Niarchos cultural center, Temple of Apollo Zoster and Lake Vouliagmeni. It was a great way to end our vacation in Greece.
Loli was amazing! Learned so much and had a GREAT time! Truly a unique experience that I recommend for everyone of all ages!
A highlight on our trip to Athens. My husband is a track and field coach so this was such a fun treat for him, particularly the race in the stadium to end the morning. Very cool.
<p>One of the best highlights of my trip! My guide was amazing, she showed me all of the Ancient Olympic workouts, and had me try each one. We then went to the Olympic Stadium, where I ran around the field. At the end she gave me a card with all of my times for each event. This was a great tour, and I highly recommend for any Olympic Fan, or individuals looking for a unique tour experience in Athens.</p>
