Olympia and the beach with Nancy

5.00This was a great experience. Nancy was our guide. She was fantastic! Olympia was great, the temperature was hot but seeing all that history was worth it! Would recommend buying tickets to Olympia ahead just check with you tour operator to get the right time slot and try to do outside first, then go to the museum to cool off. The beach was nice and Nancy had reserved some umbrellas and chairs. We recommend ordering drinks before you go down to the beach if you want some. Only one or two people running them so we did not get any during our short time there. The van they had was great for 11 and the AC was wonderful. We got some local green soap as recommended by our guide. Would recommend!
Nice day! Our group had fun!

3.00The tour didn't get off to a very good start. We had arranged for a winery visit and were told we would be going to a bee farm (not happening). There were added costs that we weren't made aware off. When we got the winery we were booked in for a taster and were not given the option for lunch, despite our guide having the lunch. However, one can't deny the beauty that Katakolon had to offer.
Great Day in Katakolon-Olympia!

5.00The Olympic ruins were beyond amazing. To walk through and imagine what used to be thousands of years ago is an incredible site. Walking through the museum was a great connection between the ruins and artifacts. Kilo Honey Farm was a lovely treat. The farm is run by the sweetest mother-daughter duo. They welcomed us into their home and treated us to some delicious treats! Our guide, Nasia, was very accommodating, sweet and informative!!
Fun time.

5.00The start of the tour was great. We left early at 8am and got to Olympia before the crowd's got there. After we went to a great little honey bee farm and tasted some of the products they make, I recommend doing that. The lady was great that owns the farm. After that we went to a beautiful gorgeous resort place by the ocean that had a little beach and had food/drinks.
