Katakolon (Olympia) Cruise Reviews

We took a bus for 8 euros round trip to ancient Olympia. Tickets for Olympia were $12 euros which included two museums as well as the ancient Olympic grounds and stadium. It was worth it. The same excursion offered on the ship would have cost $104 USD ...

Not much in Katakolon other than shops and restaurants. ...

We took the local train and used Rick Steves guide. Easy to do on your own. I would recommend getting the combination ticket that includes the museum. ...

Did it on our own. City bus to Olympia was 3 eu round trip. Museum was buy one, get one free - 15eu for 2. Very interesting area and cute town. ...

Most disappointing of all tours that we've booked on shore. The old Olympic village itself is impressive enough bit the track is not worth going to see there is nothing to see. If you want to see a track that was built around the same time, Rhodes island has exactly the same track except it is in perfect Knicks with seating and fencing. ...

We have been to Olympia on a previous visit to Katakolon so stayed in town, and what a pretty town this is, dont simply pass through, it is worthy of an hour or two. ...

Lovely little town to walk and explore. We enjoyed a nice local beer and coffee. ...

Took an independent bus to Olympia. It far exceeded our expectations. We are so glad we did this. ...

Worth a visit once, not worth repeating ...

Just catch the local train to Olympia and check out Katakolon when you return Train ran 10-30AM and returned trip at 2-00PM for a 45 minute ride for 10E return. A fabulous day out and make sure you have a coffee and snack in Olympia. ...
