The BEST Olive Oil Tour & Tasting in Athens - My hubby and I decided to book a last minute olive oil tour & tasting for my parents and especially after a month traveling around Europe. They had no idea or what to expect during this tour but my oh my, days have passed and until now they continue to share stories with a smile on their faces and how happy they are that they get to see this once in a lifetime olive oil tour and tasting experience. My dad is 70 yrs old and while mommy is 63 and English as not their 1st language but Marianna adjusted and catered for them and have explained everything so thoroughly and passionately. They definitely enjoyed this private Olive tour and understanding the process and the quality of olive oil they produce is just to the highest quality ever! Marianna definitely went above and beyond and they felt home. She was very accommodating and even arranged a winery visit for me and my hubby after. We ended up buying 6 bottles of olive oil and will definitely order more and have it shipped to the USA! Such a gem and a blessing to be able to take them here! I am sure you will enjoy and feel the same way too!

A delicious moment - We spent a privileged time with Marianna and her chef Melina. We were able to discover the types of olive oil production, the appellations, which makes the quality of an olive oil. The tasting taught us even more, accompanied by small excellent dishes. This experience even reconciled my spouse with olive oil. A great experience in Greece today! To do! Thanks to Marianna for her beautiful energy!

Not just a business but a philosophy of healthy living among the olive trees. - From start to finish a truly amazing experience. Marianna was so warm and friendly and did an incredible job at both conveying her passion for her beautiful family business as well as teaching us so much about how the olives grow , are harvested and then made into olive oil. I loved the tasting under the gazebo and I feel now I will be so much more knowledgeable on how to purchase and appreciate olive oil. Very worth the price/ beautiful tranquil setting. This is a must do! I will return !

I had the most amazing... - I had the most amazing tour and tasting at this beautiful grove. Marianna is a very charismatic and compelling storyteller who explained everything from the biological processes in the olive tree that affect flavour, to the various manufacturing approaches and grades of product, to how to properly taste the oil and notes to look for, and even some unlikely culinary applications for it Honestly I feel like a new world has been opened up to me.

AMAZING experience!! - Our favorite experience in Greece! My family and I learned so much about olive oil production and what to look for on the packaging to ensure we buy a quality product. Marianna was our host and she was phenomenal! She is very knowledgeable on the topic and she made the olive oil tour and tasting so fun and enjoyable. It was a wholesome day with amazing views. We highly recommend Oleosophia to anyone traveling to Greece!

Great olive oil tour with a fabulous host - Oleosophia is a beautiful place with delicious olive oil, but what really makes it a marvelous place to visit is Marianna. She is warm, welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable about all things olive oil and has designed a wonderful experience for foodies and clueless tourists alike. Even in the mid-day heat, Marianna made sure we were comfortable, and took the time to answer all of our many questions, while introducing us to ideas and flavors we didn't know to ask about. We've been on similar food-focused tours in other places, and it really is the people who make the difference. If you have been enjoying Greek olive oil, or just want a gorgeous place to stop along your tour through the country, contact Oleosophia. And don't be shy to ask if they can work with your schedule.

Unique and wonderful tour and tasting - We are from Northern California and have done many wine tastings over the years. The olive oil tasting with Marianna was a highlight of our recent trip to Greece. I learned so much and she was absolutely delightful. She is doing a great thing here and if you love food I highly recommend taking part in her olive oil tasting, You will not be disappointed.

Don't miss this unique experience to learn about olives, olive oil and food pairing! - After traveling in Greece for 2+ weeks, we did not have anything planned for the last day and were looking for something to do. We contacted Marianna and arranged for an Olive Garden walking tour and Olive Oil tasting. The event began with the walking tour and ended up with the tasting in an outside pavilion. The experience was so unique and is a must do if you are in the area. We learned so much about the process beginning with the olive trees to tasting olive oil and pairing with foods. The experience was priceless and I would highly recommend making this a priority! She has a Facebook group and puts out fun facts occasionally about olive oil. We found their olive oil through a supplier in the US and have ordered quite a bit for personal use and gifts.

Family - Our family visit to the olive grove was warm and personalized and was a unique opportunity to learn the generational history of the grove as well as the art of tasting olive oil from an experienced sommelier. Our twelve year old planted an olive tree, and we all tasted some local delicacies - made all the more perfect with the embellishment of the Oleosophia Olive oil from rare Manaki olives. Thank you, Marianna and George, for an amazing time!! We will be back.
