    I had a wonderful tour guide who had great knowledge about the history of the sites and took us to great places that we never knew about.

  • A tour and a guide to remember all your life!

    The private tour was the best choice, Tina made sure we saw everything we wanted to and that the day ran very smoothly. We skipped lines, tasted the local specialties and experienced the best of Olympia. Tina and Costa made us feel very welcome!

    We had a delightful private tour with George in his personal vehicle. He took us to the usual museum sites of Olympia and saw the ruins where the first Olympian’s competed. We also especially enjoyed the visit to the honey farm and he added in a visit to ann olive oil pressing facility for that region. It was quite interesting and very helpful for understanding the economy in that region and how olive oil is created. George was enthusiastic and really wanted us to have a great experience!

    Advertised as a driver/guide. Though it said the guide couldn't go into Olympia archeology center with us, we thought it was because they weren't allowed only to find out he wasn't licensed as a guide and that's why he couldn't go in. He was just a taxi driver. He Didn't tell us anything about any history at all and just asked us a lot of personal questions about ourselves. I don't recommend this tour at all.

  • Andreas is a very nice man, not a very good guide.

    I hate to leave this review, but as someone who reads reviews before I buy or book anything, I felt it is my duty. First of all there are 9 of us in our group. Youngest is 9, oldest is 77 and a range in between. Pro: 1. Great What's app communication prior to and up to the meeting time. 2. The guide (Andreas) and driver (Hercules) met us with my name as stated. 3. They were on time, the van was clean and maintained. 4. They brought several umbrellas for us, because it was a rainy day. 5. Andreas is a very nice man. 6. I liked the honey farm, but you have to pay 5 euros per person and I swear it said no charge before. CONS: 1. Andreas did not introduce himself to us, I had to ask him his name. 2. We were hot and I had to prompt them to turn the AC on several times. 3. Andreas told us about himself, he owns an olive farm, his kids etc. But not much else. The ride was in silence for a great portion. 4. At Olympia, I didn't get any book as stated in the description. 5. Andreas didn't tell us anything about it either, as stated in the description. Going to the archaelogical site is not much fun not knowing what you're looking at and the site itself doesn't have much to read to tell you about what you're looking at. 6. They didn't offer us any waters. 7. They took us to an olive oil processor which was not on the itinerary, but we liked that. 8. They did not take us to the beach as stated in the description, but we were fine with that, we just wanted to get out of the van because of the awkward silence. I would not recommend this tour due to the CONS. I have had great guides before so I know what one looks like. I read the reviews and some people had Andreas or someone with the same name, and that Andreas seemed spectacular. Maybe we had a different one.

    "Our day with Stathis was simply perfect! He was knowledgeable, professional, and made every stop special - from Olympia to the honey bee farm and olive press company, ending with a delicious lunch by the sea at Agios Andreas Beach. We couldn't have asked for a better or more attentive guide who deserves many more stars than five!!!!!!!

  • Outstanding small group Olympia tour

    Stasis was an excellent driver and guide for our group of four. He not only took us to Olympia ( with hints to make it a better experience), but also to some places only locals would know about, like Klios Honey farm ( a small family run business). He shared a lot of information about the Greek people and their lifestyles, especially the local people. This was an amazing tour and I highly recommend it.

  • Best time ever!

    A great excursion. Nancy was so nice and informative. She shared much information about Katakalon and the surrounding areas. Olympia was very interesting and great to see where the Olympics began and continue to begin. Klios Honey Farm was great! We loved hearing about the family business and master beekeeping. Nancy then brought us to beachfront family run restaurant for a traditional Greek meal. She gave us the option of this or a hotel “higher end” restaurant but we chose traditional family run. Highly recommend.
