Dora was awesome! She picked us up right at the cruise ship in a very comfortable Sprinter van for our group of nine. We loved every stop: Olympia, the Bee Farm, Magna Grecia and a beautiful beach. We felt like we got a taste of Greece from a local perspective and we loved it! Olympia is a must see! The countryside was beautiful and the bee tour was so fun. The family who owns it was so nice! Magna Grecia gave us a real appreciation for olives and olive oil. We highly recommend this tour!

We had an excellent day with our guide, Joanna. She provided us with a custom, fun day. The ruins at Olympia were stunning. Probably one of my favorite spots of ancient ruins. The stop at the honey farm was pure original Greece. It was delightful! We finished at the most STUNNING beach. We had chairs and umbrellas waiting. Ordered very reasonably priced food and drinks and they were delivered to our chairs. It was fantastic! Note: we skipped the winery for more beach time because we have kids who were ready for some swim time. All in all, a great day. 100% would recommend.

Our experience with Joanne, our guide, and our professional driver was outstanding from start to finish. From the moment we were picked up in a spotless, new Mercedes mini-bus—right on time—we felt well cared for and completely at ease. Our group included myself, my wife, our daughter who uses a wheelchair, my parents in their 80s, my mother-in-law in her late 70s, and our two other daughters. Joanne navigated our group’s diverse needs with remarkable kindness, flexibility, and professionalism. She was especially sensitive to the heat, responding immediately when we needed to cut parts of the day short for our special needs daughter and my parents. When I called to request an early pickup due to the rising temperature, she was already coordinating with the driver and made everything smooth and easy. The highlight of our day—and truly one of the most memorable experiences of our entire cruise—was our visit to a local honey farm. Joanne arranged the visit beautifully and made sure we had all the time we needed. She was ready and willing to extend our stay if we wished, showing both patience and warmth. Although we opted not to visit the beach or winery in order to return to the ship for an event, Joanne was completely prepared to accommodate any adjustments we needed. Her fluent English, calm demeanor, and thoughtful attention to every detail made the day a delight. In every way, Joanne and our driver provided a level of care and service that exceeded expectations. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories made and would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone seeking a thoughtful, flexible, and high-quality private tour.

Highly recommend a private guide through ruins and allow at least 2 hours for ruins. We did not do this and greatly regretted not doing so. Olive farm was wonderful. Local honey farm was the best! Family owed, very friendly. The beach was beautiful but too cold to really enjoy.
Dora is the best!!

we had the best time and Dora was the best guide!! She was accommodating to our time restraints. One of the members of our group was not able to do most of the walking and Dora took care of her while we walked the ruins. She was very kind, knowledgeable and made the day so much fun. I would definitely recommend!
