Ancient Olympia: Birthplace of Legends & Olympic Dreams

Exceeded all our expectations! The site was within walking distance of our hotel. The ruins and grounds beautiful maintained an lots of shade. The temple of Zeus was fantastic , there were many beautiful views of the ruins including signs in English and Greek describing them. The stadium where the Olympic games were held was marvelous with hills surrounding it with seating for thousands, We spent several hours there and still did not see it all, Well worth the Trip. Go early as it did get quite crowded as the morning wore on. The museum had many fine items all lot of them complete. Sculptures artifacts you name it was there, On a trip filled with wonders this was by far our favorite place,

This was a nice experience and very interesting to learn about the history of the area. Give yourself ample time to walk around both spaces and be sure to protect yourself from the sun because there is not much shade outside. The museum is a nice excape from the heat and had beautiful artifacts to explore.

Visiting Ancient Olympia was like stepping back in time. The museum is packed with amazing artifacts. Everything is well laid out and easy to follow, with good signs and helpful info in English. The archaeological site itself is massive and really impressive. Walking through the ruins of the Temple of Zeus and standing on the original Olympic track was surreal. It’s mostly outdoors, so bring water and wear good shoes especially in summer. Overall, it’s a fascinating and memorable place. Whether you’re into history or just curious, it’s totally worth the trip. Purchasing the tickets via Viator made it one step easier.

It is an awesome place to visit. Paths are very easy to explore and have lots of people in the area to make sure tourists are not touching or climbing in the ruins. The museum was beautiful

Excellent site and museum. Enjoy much more than the Vatican. Beware when they scan your ticket to enter museum, it then shows used and you can’t get into archaeological site unless you go to ticket booth and stab in line to get a hand ticket after much wasted time.

We went very early. We were in the first group to enter and were able to avoid heavy crowds. Our tickets were purchased before arriving there. The site is breathtaking but is a moderate to heavy walking activity. The heat was a killer. Literally you are wringing wet when done. You must wear sunscreen, light clothing, a hat, and drink tons of water.

Olympus is great but these tickets are not good value. We paid more for the tickets than you would on the door. Plus they included an extra charge for an audio guide but there aren’t any at any of the site.

Used Grekaland tours they Viator, very confusing at port, had to walk a distance to find them, then further to the bus. Our guide was ok, older woman was very nice but she seemed to be struggling with all the climbing and walking. She needs a better way to ID her than the pink umbrella bc a few people had them. Seeing the ruins was awesome, my group was less than enthused at the amount of information given. I love using aviator to book tours but not necessarily this one.

It was easy to purchase tickets. We had a great time seeing the ruins and the museum! It was amazing!

User friendly website. The only issue we had was the weak internet connection in Olympia Greece, but it all worked out. Next time I will download the tickets in advance.
