Connie
I am glad that I came here by walking from Litochoro for 2 hours. I didn’t take the big bus tours from Thessaloniki or Katerini, saving much money, & I am free to stroll leisurely on the lush green meadows for 2 hours. It is a good place to relax & to enjoy the charming scenery. most magnificencia is the Hellenistic theater.

Impressive. The bathrooms are still so beautifull, my favorites. A pity we did not find the palace of Zeus. :-)

Popped here along with a tour we had organised. Bought tickets at the door, there was no issues there and I don't think it'll get too busy to enjoy. We had three young kids in our group (below 6 years old) and wouldn't recommend this place for young kids too much as old stones in the ground just aren't interesting for them. Plus it was a decent amount of walking. They didn't mind some of the bridges and hidden little alcoves in the forest though. And the incentive of an ice-cream in the shop for them around the last leg of the park. It was a decent walk through the park, and in an hour and a half allotted time, we didn't manage to see everything. But we were slowed down a little with the aforementioned children. I loved it and thought it is a great place. The oldest site I've seen! And has some great history and is just a beautiful spot with some amazing water springs thrown in the middle. The mosaics bl w me away and have been cared for greatly!

Really interesting site that would greatly benefit from more description as you walk around. Very hot bring lots of water.

Sadly, the trip here was really not worth it. The site is not well maintained, clearly there are many renovations taking place since there were tapes, tarps, fences and trucks/industrial vehicles around many of the sites, which of course we were not informed of. Some areas are very overgrown and unsafe (we came across snakes), poorly marked, no clear trails to follow and signposts with no signs in them explaining what you're looking at. The signs that are present mostly have illustrations or photos of the ruins as we can see in front of us already, as opposed to graphics showcasing what the buildings once were. It leaves a lot to the imagination and if I could give you any advice it would be to go to the museum instead, as the ticket price is actually worth it there. I can see some beautiful photos in older reviews and regret we could not see the same.
