    The honey farm was a refreshing experience from the heat but it was just a farm, I did not see the actual beehives. The mini bus provided was nice but the extra fees for the bee farm and archeological sites makes the package not worth it.

  • No Olive Oil Tasting on this Tour.

    This was only a tour of the Olympia and the Museum. After it was over you had an option for a Honey Tasting or stay in downtown Olympia. There was no option for Olive Oil Tasting. Very misleading.

    Loved the guide Elena at the ancient Olympic Ruins. She was very knowledgeable and informative! That was really the highlight. We then went to a store on the side of the road which was terrible. It was a spot to taste the olive oils and buy t shirts…would have preferred more options or an actual olive oil making place to this. Definitely should skip this second stop. The last stop was sweet with a family run honey farm with things to taste and purchase. Could be boring for those not interested in honey making process. No actual bee hives or really seeing the process of the honey making. It was nice to cool off in the shade after a hot visit to Olympia.

    This was an amazing excursion. We got to see a lot of the countryside and our guide, Elena, was very knowledgeable about all of our stops, the country, the history, and made us feel completely immersed.
