Temple of Apollo Epikourios
The temple is located in Bassae near the ancient city of Phigaleia. It was built in the second half of the 5th century BC and was designed by Iktinus the architect of Parthenon. It’s an unusual and mysterious temple as it combines all of three classical architectural orders: Doric, Ionic and Corinthian. The temple was dedicated to Epicurius Apollo, god of music, poetry, art, medicine, plague disease, sun and knowledge. Apollo was son of Zeus and Leto and was brother of Artemis. The temple is in the UNESCO World Heritage list since 1986 and is characterized as the “Second Parthenon”. In the archaeological site visitors can also admire the Temple of Artemis Orthansia and the Temple of Aphrodite.

Olympia, the small town in Elis on the Peloponnese, is at the same time, the birthplace of Olympic Games and the most celebrated sanctuary in the ancient world, dedicated to Zeus, father of the gods. The archaeological site of Olympia was primarily dedicated to Zeus and held over 70 significant buildings and ruins of many of these survive, such as athletic premises (ancient stadium, palaestra), administrative buildings, altars, temples, monuments, baths, the workshop of Pheidias and hippodrome. The temple of Zeus housed one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the gigantic chryselephantine (ivory and gold on a wooden frame) statue of Zeus sculpted by Pheidias. We must not omit the Olympic Flame’s official ceremony which takes place in Olympia several months before the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. Eleven women, perform a celebration at the Temple of Hera in which the first torch of the Olympic Torch Relay is kindled by the light of the Sun, its rays concentrated by a parabolic mirror. After the ceremony at Olympia, the Olympic flame first travels around Greece, and is then transferred during a ceremony in the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens from the prior Olympic city to the current year’s host city. The archaeological museum of Olympia houses important findings of the excavations and some of the most significant exhibits in the world such as the statue of Herme by Praxiteles which is considered as the ultimate model of male beauty and Nike by Paeonius.

Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at €950 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ancient Olympia-Apollo Epikouros Full Day Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
