Unforgettable Katakolon: VIP Olympia & Olive Oil Journey

Was great to have someone else organize and transport and directions. The tour guide at the site was so qualified and professional. We could understand him perfectly and he made it fun as we toured the site and museum

We did a 3 generation trip to Olympia with our incredible guide Dimitra Spiliopoulou. She brought Ancient Greek culture and history to life for us, making our tour SO much more enjoyable. We were so lucky to have her as our guide, bravo!

We took this excursion from our cruise ship and enjoyed it immensely. Fharrysto and helena and driver Alex were excellent, very informative and helpful.

Our tour guide Despina met us as planned and the meeting place was easy to find. We went to Kilos farm (Kilo is a beekeeper) where we learned all about honey and had some tasty treats. On the bus we toured beautiful sights. We then went to the olive oil tasting and learned all about olives and oil and did a little bit of shopping before heading back to the cruise ship.

Touring the site we got a first hand view with a knowledgeable tour guide. The tour wasn’t rushed, which allowed us to take pictures and enjoy the tour. The museum was an amazing part of the tour.

The guide's excellent description on items at the site plus walking the course of the very first, original race course.

We had an amazing day visiting Olympia, a local honey farm, and a market for olive oil tasting. Everything was smooth and well-organized, with pick-up and drop-off right at the cruise port, which made it super convenient. Olympia’s history was fascinating, the honey farm was charming with delicious samples, and the olive oil tasting at the market was a real highlight. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, making the whole experience enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area—especially cruise passengers!

This tour was exceptional. The driver gave interesting details as we traveled from Katakolon to Olympia. In Olympia we met a certified tourist guide who gave in depth details concerning the Olympia site. She really knew her stuff. After spending time at this extensive site, we went to the museum on the grounds. Here you can see many items which were excavated from the Olympic site. This was very impressive. Afterward our driver took us to a shop where we were able to taste olive oils and other tastey items. Finally we visited a family owned business which processes olives into olive oil. It was educational and entertaining. All fees and entrance costs are covered by this tour.

Very unprofessional assistant tour guide. Poor off topic conversations that were her opinions that were inappropriate. Tour guide was knowledgeable but you could not hear her during the museum tour.

Natalia made us feel like we were in the Olympic games! Her explanations were so wonderful we could picture the activity. Very knowledgeable and patient. She made sure our experience was complete.
