Travel Tips from people who've been to Archaia Olympia (Ancient Olympia)
Il faut y aller dès l'ouverture (8h) pour éviter aux maximum les touristes et la chaleur. Commencer de préférence par le site archéologique et finir par le musée. Y aller avec un bon guide (livre) ou avec un historien comme moi ! lol Sinon il faut acheter un plan du site et un livre explicatif sur place car quasiment rien n'est indiqué sur le site. Prévoir 2h pour le site (moi j'y suis restée 3h30, mais je faisais les explications à celui qui m'accompagnait !). WC sur le site et possibilité de manger.

Olympia is one of my favorite archeological places. Try visiting in the spring when it is full of flowers. For a snack ask for greek yoghurt with nuts and honey. They make the yoghurt quite thick.
