Overview of your Archaia olympia tour:

🔍 Why choose this exclusive 4-hour private tour? Join me, Michalis (Michael) – a certified tourist guide and active archaeologist – on a 4-hour journey from Katakolo to Ancient Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games. As a member of the Greek Ministry of Culture with a Master’s in Classical Archaeology, I study how religion and politics intertwined in ancient sanctuaries. This perspective allows me to offer a tour that goes beyond the typical narrative, blending myth, history, and deeper meaning. As we walk through Olympia’s iconic ruins — from temples and altars to the original Olympic stadium — I’ll share unique insights and stories that bring the ancient world to life. After our tour, enjoy free time in the modern village of Olympia to shop, eat, or simply relax before returning to Katakolo. Whether you're a history lover or just curious, I’d be thrilled to guide you through this unforgettable place. ✨✨ If you're traveling in a smaller or larger group, feel free to contact me for a customized tour.
