Q:
Regarding George's question, what was the starting point for the reference of 100 yards? Are you talking about an entrance, then up a hill? Anyone know cost estimate for this excursion? I am taking the 3 island day tour with Viator. They don't have any info on their site, but wondering what to expect. Was the excursion including a bus/taxi ride from one point to the entrance?

From my recollection, 100 yd from gate. Not a huge slope but ground obviously not entirely even as this is an antiquity. The cost was I think about €20 for taxi and €12 for entrance for two. I really loved it. I have visited Aegina twice before and would not hesitate to visit Temple of Aphaia again. So peaceful. Fabulous views.

Q:
I'm visiting Aegina on one of those one-day-cruises out of Piraeus, On Aegina, the cruise offers an excursion that takes you to the temple. But, my walking is not the greatest, if I take this, am I still faced with an uphill climb to actually reach the temple? If so, how strenuous? i.e how close would the bus actually take me? George
A:
The bus stops near enough right outside the entrance to the Temple of Aphaia. Once you enter it's a relatively short walk with a gradual but not steep incline to the Temple. …

The bus stops near enough right outside the entrance to the Temple of Aphaia. Once you enter it's a relatively short walk with a gradual but not steep incline to the Temple. Additionally there is a cafe opposite the Temple where you can enjoy coffee, cold drinks, ice cream and pistachios. Be sure to sit on the stone benches and enjoy the view.
