The building was named after Diagor, who was known as a wrestler and the Olympic champion during the period of antiquity. He came from the city of Yalissos and won all the Great Panellian matches. People remembered his family as “the family of Olympians”: apart from Diagor, his three sons and two grandsons were crowned as Olympic champions.

Taxi

The price for transportation by taxi depends on the destination and is not fixed. For example, the trip to Kiotari will cost you approximately 74 euros. However, if you decide to take a ride at night or get stuck in a traffic jam, be ready to spend extra money. Those taxis which manage service in major airports, provide a better quality of amenities if compared to small airfields. However, this so-called “better service” could hardly compete with facilities offered by a transfer company. Taxis, as a rule, are rather old and do provide neither seats for children not help with the luggage.
