My first and not last trip to Olympia - This was my first time using this tour and Viator. I am in a scooter. Our guide was George. He was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and explained all the history of Olympia. We wanted to go the museum and he took us there. He took us to a restaurant because we were hungry. He made the tour what we wanted. Everyone should take this tour with George. We were extremely happy.

Olympia and Olive oil mill - Andreas was a very courteous and professional driver. He made sure our Olympia experience fulfilled our expectations then took us to an olive oil mill. With our limited time, this was perfect! Thank you for a great excursion!

Amazing - Absolutely amazing !! Dinos our tour guide was fantastic! He was familiar with so much history and was constantly sharing it with us. He went out of his way to make sure we saw and did everything we wanted to do. The honey farm was quaint and the family winery was very relaxing! Olympia is just breathtaking. If you are able to request Dinos please do. You won’t be disappointed.

A Simply Wonderful Day - Our private driver, Sbyros, was exceptional and he took very good care of us. The tour to Ancient Olympia and the museum was outstanding! Plus, the additional visits to Klio’s Honey Farm and the Olympia Olive Oil Company was outstanding! Lastly, Sbyros took is to a little village near the Katakolo port for a traditional home made Greek lunch…a simply wonderful day!!

Wonderful Day Getting Back to Our Roots - Dimitrios was amazing! He made sure that we really immersed ourselves in the culture of the area. Our grandparents came from Greece and Dimitrios shared information about the island they came from. Of course, we enjoyed historic Olympia and the bee farm, but the highlight was feeling like family with Dimitrios!

Great to have private driver! - Paul was a wonderful driver for our tour.
He was ver personable and geared the tour to our likes.
The ruins, the olive oil farm, and the honey farm were all great.
Would have helped if driver used What’s App for communicating pick up locations, etc. but it still was 5 star!

Very understanding tour office - Unfortunately our cruise ship could not stop at the port due to high winds. I contacted the tour operator and they were very understanding. The refunded my money right away. I hope the next time I go to Greece get to go to Olympia. Great people, understating and honest. I recommend this tour operator and the tours they offer. Thank you

Great bee farm / ok tour. - The bee farm was amazing we highly recommend it, but the tour was just ok, and our guide who was supposed to be non smoking was smoking every time we stopped so our car smelled of smoke. Also, Dimitris our driver/guide was not a very happy person and just wanted to complain to us about their economy and how horrible everyone is doing there. Not very uplifting or what we expect on a tour.

Just A Driver - I was in between giving this 2 or 3 stars because our driver got us to Olympia and where we wanted to go and was prompt. However, this was basically an Uber, maybe a little less. Car was hardly air conditioned and we were got given waters as stated in our “tour”. Our driver, Vasilis, was nice enough but was not knowledgeable about the area at all. He offered no information or conversation. He had no recommendations and when we told him where we would like to go, he got lost going to 2 separate locations. He clearly was not from the area and if he was, he didn’t know where anything was.
Honestly, it probably cost less than an Uber to each location and less hassle than having to call one when we were done, but this is JUST a private driver. If you go in with that in mind, you will be fine.
We went from the port in Katakolo to Olympia. From Olympia to town for lunch. Town to Klios (skip this!). Klios to olive oil tasting at Olympian Koufolias Olive Oil Mill (highly recommend) and then dropped off at the beach near the port (tried another beach with no luck). Besides the drive back and forth to Olympia from the port, all of our destinations were close to each other.
