Creator's Key Takeaways

my Excursion in Olympia was okay but it's not my favorite thing I've done in Greece

it was just so many people because here in the port we're in the port of catacolon that is the only thing pretty much to do in this port

I wouldn't do it again it was fine I've never been here before and it was nice to see you know the birthplace of the Olympic Games

it's pretty interesting it's not exactly what I thought I thought there would be more to it but it is pretty cool to see here

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider if you are a fan of the Olympic Games before visiting Olympia
βœ“Be prepared for crowds as many passengers from the ship may take the same excursion

I visit Olympia, Greece on a Celebrity Beyond Cruise Shore Excursion and tell you why Olympia wasn't that great. I set sail on the Celebrity Apex in Rome, Italy (Civitavecchia) for a 12-night cruise to the Eastern Mediterranean. This was my second time on Celebrity Apex, which was my first cruise with Celebrity Cruises back in 2021. This time I was headed to Greece, Turkey, Israel, and Cyprus on this exciting voyage on Celebrity Apex. I will have many videos to come in this Celebrity Apex series as we sail to Israel and beyond. From food and cruise reviews to an infinite veranda stateroom tour to Celebrity Apex daily travel vlogs and more. Make sure to subscribe for more Celebrity Cruises and solo cruise content.
