Best Way to See Olympia and the Corinth Canal - Our driver, Bledi, went over and above to show us the sights, to fulfill our interests, and to improve our knowledge of the archeological sites. He was very attentive to our comfort and drove in a very professional manner. He even went above and beyond helping us to find a Covid testing site.
