4.00We enjoyed the tour given by Kristos. He had good suggestions and maximized our time. We had a problem in the tour confirmation - we never were specifically asked to confirm and we needed to call the office to send a driver - 30 minutes after our half day tour was to begin. But the day was very good and we returned to our ship on time

5.00Our comfortable Mercedes sedan was waiting at the cruise port. Plenty of room for four. •No extra walking to tour buses. •Our driver, Chris, provided us with options and suggestions and we chose what we wanted (Olympia, town and winery tours, olive oil and souvenir shopping). He spoke excellent English, was very knowledgeable of the area and assisted us at every stop. So much better than big bus group tour.
So much better than bus tour!

5.00Group of four friends booked this private tour to Olympia from our cruise port. Rather than being herded on a tour bus, Chris was waiting for us in a comfortable Mercedes sedan. Delivered to the entrance gate, we were given as much time as we wanted to tour Olympia. Chris made excellent suggestions and we thoroughly enjoyed the winery and olive oil mill. Cannot say enough about this private tour. And ask for Chris!

5.00Great tour and amazing tour guide Andres. We would book again in a heartbeat. Andres was so kind and helpful showing us around, we really felt like we were on a tour with a friend. We did Olympia, authentic lunch, olive oil farm, and wine tour all within a few hours. Highly recommend!
Wonderful time and tour guide!

5.00Wonderful time! We had the best tour guide, Dimitris, who was wonderful at sharing history and current information of the area! We love learning about new places and Dimitris provided. He communicated the day before to confirm time and place to meet. Also made the day so easy with pick ups and drop offs. We so enjoyed Olympia and visiting the olive mill. We would definitely recommend this tour.
Best guide!

5.00Dimitri was a wonderful guide through the Olympia area. He took us to off the beaten path views and an out of this world local restaurant where he ordered on our behalf. His selections were incredible. The best Greek meal of my life. He was so friendly and made our time so memorable!
Great tour to Olympia with Dimitris

5.00We woke up to rain and sadly decided to try and cancel our transportation/tour and stay on the ship. Speaking with Demetris (our driver) he talked us into going dispute the rain. All three of us are so thankful we decided to go! We had such a wonderful time! He is such a nice guy and we have become friends! I highly recommend him to take you anywhere you want to go. He’s so knowledgeable, great tour guide, he also knows a lot of the history which was so nice! If we ever get back to Greece I will definitely choose him again!! What started as a nasty day turned out to be one of our best!
