Excellent way to see the local flavor. We didn’t do the winery since it was the late spring. Andreas (?) quickly pivoted us to a an Olive Oil tasting and tour. We have limited time for our shore excursion and he NAILED IT!

We had a wonderful time with Dimitra and our driver! We spent a little over an hour at Olympia which was more than enough time experience ancient Olympia and get pictures! We were then taken to Olympia Winery and had a wonderful tasting complete with a traditional Greek snack! We purchased some bottles to take back to the States! We opted out of going to the beach, since we had several beach opportunities on our three week trip. So, Dimitra took us to an olive mill. We got a tour and then a tasting of their delicious olive oils! Also, purchased some to take home! We drove to a quaint shopping area where my husband had ice cream, and I purchased honey from a local beekeeper! We really enjoyed our time in Olympia, and now can say that we have been to the birthplace of the Olympics! Andrew & Elise (May 2025)
Such a Great Day!

Costas our tour guide was a jewel. Such a beautiful person who catered to my 83 years old Mom and 80 year olds Aunt. He made sure we avoided the big cruise ship crowds for the full day. He also made sure to take us to places that were not outrageously priced for tourists.

We took a tour with Nancy, a local from the region. She was amazing. We had planned to see the archeological site of ancient Olympia and associated museum but found we had some extra time as well. Nancy was able to recommend several local hidden gems including a bee farm and olive farm/press. We toured both locations and had the opportunity to buy local products directly from both places. Overall very knowledgeable and accommodating of my elderly parents. Great tour allowed us to get an authentic feel for the life and cultural of locals in this part of Greece. Would 100% recommend if you are looking for an authentic experience. Ask for Nancy.
