Travel from Athens, Glyfada, or Piraeus to Ancient Olympia in a private air-conditioned vehicle. Driver Kostas can tailor stops and timing, while you explore the Temple of Zeus, Temple of Hera, stadium, and modern Olympia. Entrance fees, lunch, and monument guiding cost extra.

“Recommend renting a car instead as the drive was easy, and we would have learned the same amount in self discovery. Kostas was very nice and accommodating. He had excellent coffee/bakery and lunch recommendations. The service provided was as described, he drives you to and from Olympia and that is all. We would have really appreciated some more information about the area on the drive. With the high price for this service, we would have expected lunch and tickets to Ancient Olympia included but they are not. The van was very uncomfortable and our driver was consistently looking at a screen rather than the road. If we made the trip…”

“We were so lucky to have Michael as our driver from Athens to Olympia. We could ask him any question about Greece, his growing up, what was growing on the hill sides. As he got to know us on the drive, he stopped at a few places we had expressed interest in. While we visited the ancient ruins of Olympia and ran in the stadium, Michael spent the time finding a restaurant he thought we would enjoy based on our talking in the van. He made the experience feel very personable and tailored just to us instead of a "fixed" agenda. He was super helpful when my sister got sick…”
