What is you advice for getting from Corinth to Olympia? (Actually I would most likely be coming from Athens but not sure if it can be done in one day easily, so would allow one night break in between)

I see two options: by train from Corinth to Pyrgos and then to Olympia or train south to Tripoli and then bus to Olympia. But my past experience is that there is no train connection south from Corinth due to track work! Is this still the case? And is it feasib;e to do the journey in one day from Athens?

Thanks

Hi all!

There is a conflict in scheduling of a bus from Corinth's Argolis bus station to Korfos. One report was 1:30PM and 5:00PM. The other report was only one bus at 2:00PM. I can't find a web site showing a recent timetable. Does anyone have recent information? The problem is I may have to take another route if there is no bus after 4:00PM. How much would a taxi cost? Thanks!

is there light rail from Corinth to Meteora? Does anyone know what days, if so? Thanks!!

Last year I was denied passage through the Corinthian Canal. I was told I needed a motor and a speed of at least 5Km/hr. I paddle a kayak. No motor and a speed of about 3Km/hr. Does anyone know how I can get around these restrictions? Is there a prearraged time when a group of kayaks or a single kayak can transit? The office was no help. Who can I call?
Thanks!

I was kayaking in Greece last September and need to go back. The purpose of my trip was to cross from sea to sea. That meant going through the Corinthian Canal. When I got there I was denied permission to transit. Does anyone know how I can paddle my kayak through the canal without risking jail time?

I am planning my trip to Greece for this coming June. I will be spending several days in Athens. I want to take some day trips away from the city while I am there. I have been reading about Corinth in a travel guide and it looks interesting. However the guide book does not have a lot of information about traveling there. It mentions that there are some trains and busses on the Peloponnese but it does not mention if there is public transportation from Athens to the area. Does anyone from the area know if there are trains or busses that can be taken from Athens to Corinth. I will not have a car on this trip and was wondering if the visit would be possible without one.

I`m looking for an accomodation of this type in Nemea between 15 and 30 October this year. Please; send me an address or telephone, so I can talk about it with a
disponent. I`m an early retired Swedish engineer, studying mythical landscape of Greece; just for fun. This time - places between Pheneos and Isthmos.

I am planning to visit Corinth for 3days/2nights in August. Does anyone have advice on inexpensive hotels where I could get a triple room? Thanks!

Hello. I am visiting Greece in the Summer.

Will be located mainly in Athens but want to visit Corinth, especially the Canal and Ancient Corinth.

Thing is, I can't find out how to get to Ancient Corinth. Anyone know? I would greatly appreciate any websites or addresses if possible.

Thanks very much, Ed
