Authentic, informative and fun! - We had a wonderful time with Anastazia - she had a warm and friendly personality and great knowledge about the area and provided us highlights about it. Anastazia was a great host for this excursion and our group shared a few laughs that made the day more enjoyable! The tour highlight was actually the honey farm where Klio and her family shared their history of honey making and we had a great tasting too. Finished off the day with a quick refreshing dip! Overall if highly recommend this tour if you want the right blend of history, authenticity and beautiful water!!

Amazing day - Amazing experience with driver Stathis. He was so friendly and made the half day with him so pleasant and informative around Olympia. He made sure we stopped at the places we wanted to making our trip very unique. Hie suggestions of the honey farm and olive oil company were simply great.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND, Nicholos was GREAT!! - This tour was great! Nicholos was a great tour guide and made everything so simple and easy. It was really nice going into the taxi because we felt comfortable, but he was also very helpful when it came to navigating tourists traps and being able to do a variety of things. When we arrived at the museum, he was able to help us skip the lines and utilized a lot of good communication and connections to help us get through things without difficulty. He was very nice and accommodating to everything that we needed and listened as well as was good conversation. I would highly recommend this, it’s not overwhelming to where somebody is on your back the entire time, but it is helpful and a good way to get around and see the beauty of Olympia. If you have time and are on the island, I would highly recommend doing this tour, it’s less stressful and they definitely have good communication!!! he even gave us a little gift before we left which made the experience even more memorable!!!

Gold medal experience in Olympia - Our experience in Olympia was special. We saw the ruins and museum, tasted fresh honey on diples, and ate lunch overlooking a beautiful beach in Katakolon. Our guide Andreas is a local and as kind and generous as we have ever experienced. He helped us understand the context for the history and culture making sure we were comfortable and hydrated along the way. Ask for him (or his daughter). They are amazing!

Best tour guide ever - Yes, come to Olympia. Come for the wondrous history and temple ruins, come for the beach and the delicious honey-covered treat. But mostly, come for the chance to be entertained and guided by Charis (Harry). Charis was the most hospitable, warm, genuine, and cheerful guide my family and I have ever met. And this is based off of decades of traveling together — a unanimous feeling. Charis not only knew *every* vendor we came across, he gave us honest tips and tricks. He went above and beyond by extending our tour, obtaining some beer for my husband, and helped me find an elusive Christmas ornament in the middle of summer. All the while smiling, jovially laughing, and filling our time with incredible energy. I 100% recommend this tour just for the mere opportunity of hanging out with Charis!

Very enjoyable half day private bus tour - Wonderful Experience! Entire day was so enriching. Learned so much and felt so welcomed. The archaeological park was surprising with many artifacts so well preserved, and we had fun racing in the Olympic stadium! The bee farm was a beautiful and hospitable experience with delicious treats, and the beach was a great end to the day. Our guide Constantina allowed for a special quick souvenir stop for one of our friends in the party in which she actually got off the bus with her to guide her to the shop for her specific request!! The driver was skilled and we felt safe the whole time. Although we had time constraints, we never felt rushed and she felt like a friend by the end of the tour.

A little misleading - While the private transfer was great, we did not get the experience we had expected.
The listing promises bottled water which we were looking forward to after spending several hours outside in the heat. Upon asking for bottled water, our driver informed us that he did not have any.
The tour also promises a driver/guide. Our driver said very little the entire day, so we mostly Googled our way through Olympia. Saying our driver was a guide and we received a private tour would be a bit of a stretch. Nevertheless, our driver was very kind and the van had great air conditioning.
We did not get any skip the line treatment. We waited in the same lines as everyone else throughout the day.
At the end of our tour of Klio’s farm, we were told we needed to pay additional money. This is not mentioned in the “What’s not included” section of this tour. Had we known it cost extra, we likely would have skipped the experience.
The port pick up and drop off was excellent, but not worth the price tag.

This trip was expensive... - This trip was expensive and really involved transportation to Olympia(we had to pay our admission price and do a self guided tour). We opted out of the honey farm(we also would have had to pay for that). The guide and driver were both professional and kind. The tour guide was fairly knowledgeable. She was difficult to hear at times.
