The archaeological site of Olympia is breathtaking and awe-inspiring, and it provided us some of the richest sets of monuments and works of art, such as Hermes of Praxiteles. The entrance to the site looks like a passage into another space & time. Here is where the timeless Olympic games originally took place every 4 years, in honor of Zeus, which ended up becoming an institution with pan-Hellenic radiance and brilliance from antiquity to the present day. Olympia is definitely a place to be visited, at least once in a lifetime! On this trip we will see many great things, including a museum that houses the most beautiful sculpture of antiquity. This experience is not merely a walk around monuments during "teacher monologues", it's nutrition for the soul and a chance to develop an acquaintance with Greece! I personally believe it is splendid to combine images and emotions, so that will be our goal during the tour!
·Our first stop will be the Canal of Corinth, which regardless of being finalized in 1890, the idea of its passage already existed from 602 BC. The view from here is breathtaking! ·Our second stop will be Olympia, Greece's most important religious and sports centre (where the Olympic Games were born). ·On arrival to the archaeological site of Olympia, one of the largest ones in the country, we will see: -The Olympic Stadium (45, 000 seats) -The temples of Hera and Zeus -The Philippion -The Council house -The laboratory of Feidias -Olympia's Archaeological Museum ·After our dive into history, we will go for another one in one of the most beautiful beaches of the Peloponnese, located near ancient Olympia. ·On this beach, will also have lunch by a seaside restaurant before our return to Athens. In the winter months, we will alternatively go to swim at the Loutraki themal spa. This itinerary could be customized upon request.
