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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our tour of Olympia was truly wonderful, and much of that is thanks to our wonderful guide, Nancy. She was knowledgeable, kind, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the entire day. From the beginning, Nancy shared fascinating details about the region, giving us a richer understanding of the area while adding her own personal touch that made everything feel more meaningful. We started with a visit to the archaeological site and museum, where Nancy gave us plenty of time to explore at our own pace—something we really appreciated. From there, we visited a charming vineyard where we learned about the olive oil-making process. It was a hidden gem! The setting was stunning, the food absolutely delicious, and the olive oil some of the best we’ve ever tasted. Next, we stopped at a family-run honey farm. Hearing the story of generations of beekeepers and learning about the traditions behind their honey production was heartwarming and fascinating. The passion they have for their craft really came through. To top it all off, we finished our day with a relaxing visit to a beautiful local beach for a swim. Nancy was professional, helpful, and so accommodating throughout the day. She truly made our visit to Olympia special, and we’re so grateful for the experience. We highly recommend this tour—and especially Nancy—for anyone visiting the area. It was a perfect blend of culture, history, local flavor, and natural beauty. A day we’ll never forget!

It was great driving around with Andrew S he was very friendly and personable. He arranged for a guide inside Olympia who was very good. She was a very knowledgeable young lady. I am sorry but I have forgotten her name.
