During my stay in Zante, I went on this trip with my family. This is the trip of a lifetime and I would definately recommend it to anyone. The archaological site was very interesting even though you're only looking at ancient ruins. Not alot of people can say they've been to a place like Olympia so it's definately worth going to if you get the chance.
The only bad thing about the trip was the early morning and the restaurant that that tour guide recommends to you after you've been to visit the site. The food was expensive and they don't have a wide range of stuff, ie for children! The shops were all similar to each other so you do get kind of bored with them all after a certain length of time.
Overall I had an excellent time and I would tell anyone to go and visit it even if they're not exactly into history.
I was here on holiday 29th July - 12th August with my family and we had a really good time. The entertainment in the hotel was excellent so keep that up Netty (especially the football!!!) It's not that far down to the main strip. We walked it every night and it only took about 20-30 mins. I would recommend this hotel more to families though but there is a good time to be had by all.
I don't know why everyone is holding such a fuss about this place. I came here just last month and I didn't think it was that bad. People are going from what others are telling them but you should just try it for yourself. Great place for kids, they can fill themselves up on noodles, rice and prawn crackers.
