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.

  • Awesome day in Athens!

    We arrived in Athens on the day of a massive taxi driver/ tour operator strike. All excursions from the cruise ship were canceled, and passengers were scrambling to make other plans. Our Viator booking called us to relieve our concerns that they were fully operational. The driver was fantastic. He chatted with us and discussed the places that would be best for us to visit- the best part of a private car is that you make your own itinerary. He took us to several historic locations and the changing of the guards and still made it to our reservation at the Acropolis with time to spare. He gave us tips for each location and we had conversations about the historical significance of each place. He took us away from the crowds of tourists to an authentic Greek bakery with amazing delicacies and ice-cold drinks. The lack of tourist traffic allowed for several extra locations, and our driver made the most of our time in Athens. Highly recommended!

    This tour was just what we wanted, and Dimitrius made it a perfect excursion for us. He did a good job communicating with us beforehand, picked us up at the cruise port right on time in a very comfortable limousine, took us to see all the important sights, and did an excellent job providing both historical background and information about present day life in Athens. He was not only very accommodating and responsive to our needs, but was also fun to be with. We were able to see the changing of the guard, visit the Acropolis museum, see the sights, and have time for lunch in the Plaka.

  • Great tour and guide

    I 1000% recommend this tour. They were so accommodating and made this tour easy for us. Our time was limited on our way to Italy, so we decided to stop for a day in Athens. Nico, our tour guide, was incredible! We were only in Athens for 24 hours, but with this tour, we feel like we saw everything (Acropolis, Olympic Stadium, changing of the guards, as well as incredible views of Athens!!) This was the best decision we made. They even coordinated a ride to the airport for us so we could maximize our time. I would book this tour again!

  • Amazing!
