OLYMPIA TOUR

Olympia a sanctuary of ancient Greece in Elis on the Peloponnese peninsula, is known for having been the site of the Olympic Games in classical times.
The sanctuary, known as the Altis, consists of an unordered arrangement of various buildings. Enclosed within the temenos are the Temple of Hera, the Temple of Zeus, the Pelopion, and the area of the altar, where the sacrifices were made.
To the north of the sanctuary can be found the Prytaneion and the Philippeion, as well as the array of treasuries representing the various city-states. The Metroon lies to the south of these treasuries, with the Echo Stoa to the east. The hippodrome and later stadium were located east of the Echo Stoa. To the south of the sanctuary is the South Stoa and the Bouleuterion, whereas the Palaestra, the workshop of Pheidias, the Gymnasion, and the Leonidaion lie to the west.
Olympia was also known for the gigantic ivory and gold statue of Zeus that used to stand there, sculpted by Pheidias, which was named one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World by Antipater of Sidon. Very close to the Temple of Zeus which housed this statue, the studio of Pheidias was excavated in the 1950s. Evidence found there, such as sculptor's tools, corroborates this opinion. The ancient ruins sit north of the Alfeios River and south of Mount Kronos (named after the Greek deity Kronos). The Kladeos, a tributary of the Alfeios, flows around the area.
Right before Olympia, we pass through two major cities, Patras and Pyrgos. There is no way to describe this tour, because Olympia is big for itself. The only thing I can tell you is that the place is breathtaking.

DELPHI TOUR

The place of Delphi is located around 200km away from Athens. It’s the most important of all the archaeological sites in Greece. The oracle, as people call it, is the place where all the Greeks went to ask Pythia, the high priestess, the outcome of what they were planning on doing. But before we reach Delphi, we pass by the town of Lebadia and we stop at the springs of river Erkina. In mythology, the gods were bathing there. Beautiful place with extremely beautiful view. You can go hiking at the fortress up the mountain and visit a small church on the top. Great photos can be taken from there because we can see all the way to Parnassus. Leaving Lebadia, we move towards osios Loukas. A monastery which is preserved heritage of world monuments by UNESCO. The monastery is both Catholic and Orthodox and it’s been there for 1000 years. Osios Loukas, the person who built it is lying there and we can still see his cell, the way it was then. In the monastery, we can see things like an oil refinery, horse stables and beautiful art made by the monks that live within it. Our next stop is Arachova, a ski resort town, only 15km before Delphi. The town was built on the side of mountain Parnassus and all the houses are made of stone. At the place of Arachova is where we eat coming back from Delphi. And finally, Delphi. The mystery oracle place with a museum that has no words to describe it. It’s much better to see it, than me talking about it. After this tour, I’m sure that all of the visitors will take with them memories of spectacular views and art.

SOUNIO TOUR
(temple of Poseidon)

75km on the southern east side of Athens, there’s a temple for the god of the sea, Poseidon. At that temple, the sunset is the most amazing thing that happens, because it’s located by the coast and when the sun sets, it feels like you’re sinking in the sea with it. The tour starts from Athens and it takes place all along the coast, where you can see the beautiful beach of Athens, Vouliagmeni and Kavouri and you can have a quick swim and then you go all the way to Lemos, a great place for hiking and photos. On our way to Sounio, we will also see the lake of Vouliagmeni, a lake that connects to the sea with no depth measured yet, although they had many attempts to do it. Legrena is a village before Sounio that we will visit and there you can have some ouzo, hanging on the beach before the sunset comes. After the sunset and Sounio, we start coming back to Athens through another road, passing from Lavrio port where the Olympic port is located. Finally, you can be dropped off at the most amazing seafood area, where you can try excellent fresh fish and squids.

FOOD TOUR IN ATHENS

Athens has a variety of things to taste and enjoy the flavor even if that is sweet, sour or spicy.
The food tour includes sightseeing as well because it’s located near the archaeological sites and market area.

A car picks you up from the place you are staying and drives you all the way up to the Acropolis in a specific café where you can drink a coffee and have a full view of Athens. Next stop would be the market place where you can taste and smell all kind of herbs and delicacies that grow all over Greece. For example, honey.

At that place, you can try ouzo or raki, original Greek drinks, pastrami and cheese made in Greece. Continuing our tour, we will eat souvlaki. A round pita bread with onions, tomato, garlic sauce and meat, spicy or not. The thing is that there you meet the greatest souvlaki maker, named Kostas, who will make your day.
