If you love history this tour is for you. The best part of our experience was with our tour guide, Tina. Tina was awesome, so knowledgeable and professional. Ask for her!

Stathis was the best tour guide that we had during our 9 day cruise of the Italian and Greek Islands. Our tour of Olympia with him was on Sept 12, 2025. He went out of his way to make sure that we comfortable with what he had planned for us during the 7 hour tour. He meet us on time right on the dock where he had his car waiting for us. Once at Olympia, one member of our group had forgotten his sunglasses, and Stathis gave him his own to wear during our tour there! He also purchased a nice gift for each of us to remember our time with him in Olympia. He took special care to take to us places that are not on the typical tourist sites including a family run honey farm and a boutique winery where we were treated to the most wonderful layout of traditional greek foods along with our wine tastings. We also sent to a beach that was private, but he was able to get us in. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again for another tour and would recommend him 150%.

This was a first class experience. The driver was incredible and he has great relationships built at the places you visit and therefore they take great care of you at each stop. We were on a cruise and we booked multiple tours through Viator and this was my favorite. This was so much better than anything we could have done through the cruise line. Our whole time in port was packed with adventures and it was all private for our group of 4. The wine/olive oil farm was so amazing. We had the best lunch with a great bottle of wine.

We booked a private tour with Katakolon Taxi Tours – Theocharis Stathopoulos, and it was the highlight of our cruise. Theocharis was professional, easy to communicate with, and made the day feel smooth and relaxed. The vehicle was spacious and air-conditioned, which was much appreciated in the summer heat. Olympia was full of fascinating history, and it was amazing to walk through the birthplace of the Olympic Games. The Archaeological Museum helped bring the site to life, especially with the famous Hermes statue. From there, the tour really shined with local stops—Klio’s Honey Farm (delicious honey and pancakes, plus warm hospitality), Agriturismo Magna Grecia (two huge platters of authentic Greek food—olives, sun-dried tomatoes, figs, bruschetta, marmalade, grapes, walnuts, and more—with wine tasting), and the peaceful Monastery of Kremasti with gorgeous hillside views. We finished the day at Agios Ilias Beach, swimming in crystal-clear water. What we loved most was how Theocharis took us off the beaten path to support small family businesses and show us authentic Greek life. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Katakolon!

This was our absolute favorite day!! We visited the archeological site of Olympia, toured a local honey farm with only one other family, and privately toured a small local winery. The food, honey, wine, and locals were all TOP notch!! This was so much better than the large group tours! Andreus was the BEST! He told us all about his hometown and his farm. He even gifted us his homemade olive oil from his own olive trees. Highly recommend this tour! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
