What makes Full Day Private Tour to Olympia From Athens in Spanish or English a unique experience ?
Our tour starts in Athens and continues to Corinth and its famous Canal, which connects the Aegean and Ionian seas. This project has turned several engineers around since ancient times. However, it was only with the cooperation of several countries that it became a reality in 1893. It is an impressive and breathtaking work once you are on your bridge. It is 6.3 km long, 21 m wide, more than 80 meters high and only 8 meters deep in its waters. With luck, you will be able to see and photograph one of the 11,000 ships that pass through it each year.
