Olympia advice on Olympia
Posted: Fri October 2, 2009 09:55 AM UTC
Hi there, I will be staying on Zakynthos for a week and want to plan a short trip to Olympia. First I need to get a ferry from Zante to Killini on Peloponnese... and then….. can anybody advise how to get there from port Killini? Do I need to stay a nite at Olympia? Are there any sights or off beaten places to see?
Loads of thanks!

Olympia Katakolon to Olympia by Train
Posted: Wed September 24, 2008 08:24 PM UTC
Hi All! I'm also doing a cruise, and unfortunately, we're only in Katakolon from noon - 7. In researching, I found a train that runs to Olympia.

Has anyone taken this? Since the last train leaves Olympia at 3:42pm, we'll only have 2 hours there. Is this enough time?

Olympia Olympia from Katakolon with a wheelchair
Posted: Sun September 25, 2005 08:47 PM UTC
Hi, I am travelling with my parents to Katakolon (via a cruise ship) in October. My dad is in a wheelchair. Does anyone know whether I can take a taxi from the port to Olympia and about how much it would cost (4 passengers)? Is the archaeological museum accessible to wheelchairs? Thanks Pete

Is it possible to reach Olympia from the port of Katakolon without taking a cruiseline excursion? Are there buses around the port area? Any details would be helpful. Thanks.

Olympia Travelling around Peloponnese, Greece
Posted: Wed February 2, 2005 10:14 AM UTC
We will be sailing from Bari, Italy to Patras, Greece, and will have a few days to explore enroute to Athens. We'd like to know how you'd recommend travelling around the Peloponnese area, as if we can, we'd love to see Olympia, Monemvasia and Mycenae..
The Diakofto-Kalavryta railway sounds fantastic, too, if we take the train across. Suggestions?

Katakolon Is the 'Ruins of Olympic' self accessable from Katakolon?
Posted: Sat March 27, 2004 05:21 PM UTC
We will be in Katakolon for a day from a cruise. From all that I can research, Katakolon seems to have really nothing to see.

If I want to plan my own trip instead of joining the cruise's excursion, is it possible to have a DIY trip? How is the transportation there? Also I read people mentioning a place call Pyrgos, is it worth going too?

Thanks for any information in advance.
