One day in Olympia - This trip was a great experience, as it offered an insight into Greek and world history but also into local culture, everyday life and geography. Our guide mister Costas was full of interesting information and valuable travel tips and the archaeological area of Olympia was breathtaking, especially in January when the number of tourists decrease. Overall, I highly recommend it !
