Temple of Olympian Zeus

The Temple of Olympian Zeus, also known as the Olympieion or Columns of the Olympian Zeus, is a former colossal temple at the center of the Greece capital Athens. It was dedicated to "Olympian" Zeus, a name originating from his position as head of the Olympian gods. Construction began in the 6th century BC during the rule of the Athenian tyrants, who envisaged building the greatest temple in the ancient world, but it was not completed until the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century AD, some 638 years after the project had begun. During the Roman period the temple -that included 104 colossal columns- was renowned as the largest temple in Greece and housed one of the largest cult statues in the ancient world.

We had a wonderful time seeing all the sites in Athens. Our driver and our guide were both very knowledgeable and professional. They both took extra time and we did not feel rushed. The lunch break was at a great local restaurant. I highly recommend this tour.

Waiting for five hours to get to the site because nobody told us to buy tickets online the day before. Waited in a long line of tourists in very hot day for an hour then had to go before I get heat stroke. Lost $30 I paid for ticket.total $180 for six of us.
A fantastic way to spend a day in Athens!

A fantastic day even with heat and jet-lag. The tour operator provided a very comfortable van for our group of seven which was always on time and available. Both the driver and the guide (hired through the operator) were knowledable, friendly, and flexible. We had a great day!

Our tour guide George was excellent. He was able to customize our tour to see and do exactly what we wanted to do. He picked us up at the port, kept our luggage safe in the van, and dropped us off at the airport! He gave us suggestions for coffee, lunch and how to see the best sights in a short amount of time. He was very knowledgeable and provided interesting facts and information.
