Hello all,
We will be driving through the Peloponnese in July, and over several days will visit Epidaurus, Olympia, & Delphi. As it is mid-July, should we purchase advance entrance tickets to each site? Do these sites have maximum capacities of guests? Or even in July we will be able to buy entrance tickets at the sites?
Thank you!

We visited Greece last May, and we did not buy advance tickets for the following: Epidaurus, Mystras, and Mycenae. We had no problem getting tickets at the sites. I don't know if July would be different.
You could email each site and ask them if it's necessary to buy tickets in advance.

Been to all three, and all are large sites, just guessing, but I doubt they ever limit tickets, or have to, between the size of the site and the typical number of visitors.
I did not see the option to buy tickets on the Delphi site, but you might look at the websites and see if they have apps that can be downloaded for use as an audio guide.

Paul makes a good point that the sites are large. Out of the 3 you mention, we visited Epidaurus and it is quite large. The ancient theater is huge, and the grounds also include the sanctuary and ancient stadium.
