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!
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!
Choose Demetris, 🥰

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!
Best Day in Olympia!!!

5.00Our driver, Andreas, demonstrated exceptional attentiveness and adaptability as our driver. When one of our group members initially stayed behind due to feeling unwell, Andreas graciously agreed to return for him once he felt better. His willingness to accommodate our requests was truly commendable. A monastery, Olympia archeological sites, and the olive mill were some of our favorite stops. The Koufolias Olive Oil Mill was particularly memorable. The best olive oil we have ever tasted. We bought many bottles as Christmas gifts, and they offer shipping. (Make sure to try the Rosemary Pepper). The experience was both educational and enjoyable, providing a deeper appreciation for the local culture. He took us to a local spot for the best gyros we've ever tasted. I highly recommend this tour, and if you can get Adreas, all the better.
I would definitely recommend this private tour

5.00Olympia is very relaxed calm and seeing the ruins was amazing. The temple of Zeus was breathtaking and then afterwards we went to the olive oil factory, and it was another amazing experience. Our party felt like we did not know what true olive oil was until we went to the factory. Afterwards we were dropped off in a town where we had an amazing lunch. Our guide Dimitrius was really really friendly, very attentive and helped us with all of our questions, he definitely elevated the experience for us.
