Além das ruínas de Olympia, vale a pena visitar o museo ( ingresso incluso no mesmo tiquete). A área é muito grande, entao vale a pena ir nos pontos mais importantes: pira olympica, e local das corridas.

This excursion was fantastic! Olympia is so much more than you expect. The site is really large and there is so much to see. The ride to the beach was beautiful, and the beach was really nice. Bars, food, and restrooms nearby. Professional and good communication with the tour guides.
