Tour guide in Olympia Anastasia T.

Hello everybody and welcome to my profile! My name is Anastasia, and my genuine love for the arts and ancient civilizations motivated me to study Archaeology & Art History. During my career as an Archaeologist, I participated in several excavations around Greece and worked in restoration projects led by Greece's Ministry of Culture. Satisfying my need to be up to date with the advancements of Technology, I completed my Master's Degree focusing on the implementation of new technologies as a tool to enhance visitors' experiences visiting an archaeological museum. Then, the need to share my passion and knowledge drove me towards teaching. On the other hand, in tour guiding my restless soul finally found the challenge and the fulfillment it was seeking. The joy of meeting new people, guiding them through Greece's fascinating history and culture, sharing stories, myths and secrets of this amazing land is unparalleled. I was born and raised in Athens and started working as a tour guide there in 2015. Soon after that, I started working in other parts of Greece, as well. Until one day I found myself in the Peloponnese where I discovered amazing landscapes that soothe my soul, and ancient cities that intrigue my mind. I moved to Katakolon in 2018 with my soon to be husband, also a tour guide, and we started exploring the area around Ancient Olympia. We felt that this was the place for us to put down roots and start a family. I'm currently giving private, customized tours in Ancient Olympia, which combines unspoiled nature with the long history of great achievements of the ancient Greeks. Focusing on your needs and interests, I'll be able to offer to you a unique experience, making the best of your visit. You need a talented, passionate and knowledgeable tour guide to unravel the amazing stories behind the ruins of Ancient Olympia, as well as a local to show you the best that the area has to offer, providing insights about the way in which we live. Bachelor's Degree in Archaeology and History of Art from the University of Athens. MSC in Cultural Informatics/Museum Studies from the University of the Aegean. Licensed Tour Guide by the Ministry of Tourism of Greece. I am a licensed tourist guide. There are no restrictions as far as the tour destinations I can guide you at are concerned.
