Going for the Gold - Communicated well, honey farm was interesting and the Olympia tour was fascinating, would have preferred open shopping in town as opposed to the Olive tasting Both guides were excellent and very knowledgeable

Excellent Greek experience!!!! - Terrific shore excursions!! Elena was very informative. Our tour of the archeological excavation was fantastic. Pacing was also very good. Our tour in the local market was excellent. We tasted different kinds of olive oil, honey, olives, spices and also tried different lotions, creams and other products made from olive oil. The experience at Klio’s honey farm was a highlight. Tasted quince jam and honey from the farm and enjoyed traditional Greek welcome and hospitality. Will highly recommend!! 5/5!!!!

It was such a great way... - It was such a great way to experience all the things Olympia has to offer. The stop at Klios Honey Farm was one of our favorite parts of the whole trip. We constantly bring it up how enjoyable and wholesome it was, and not to mention the honey was the best i’ve ever had! Seeing the ruins of the original Olympic games was really cool. There’s so much history and our guide was extremely knowledgeable. The Olive oil was more of a tasting then visiting a farm, I would’ve like to stop at a farm but i still really enjoyed trying all the oils and balsamic, I can’t wait to receive them in the mail. Overall, i definitely recommend this tour if you’re going to Olympia. It was more on the laid back style which we loved and also needed at this point of our journey! Everyone we met was fantastic, knowledgeable and friendly!

Skip the olive oil tasting - The visit to the first site of the olympics was fantastic, and I found the honey farm very interesting. I would prefer to skip the olive tasting.

A Day in Olympia – History, Hospitality, and a Few Honest Thoughts - We booked this tour to experience the site of the original Olympic Games, and it didn’t disappoint. Our certified guide at Olympia was outstanding — deeply knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the history and ongoing restoration of the grounds. Walking through the birthplace of the Games and learning its rich history was truly special. After our visit, we stopped at Klio’s Honey Farm, a small family-run business where we enjoyed an authentic, warm welcome and tasted some truly quality products — a lovely experience. The olive oil tasting, on the other hand, felt more like a tourist trap. Most of our group seemed eager to wrap it up and return to the ship. That said, the family-owned tour company running this experience deserves credit. Our guide took great pride in her work, and the luxury transportation — a spotless, air-conditioned Mercedes van — made the day comfortable and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a well-organized group experience with excellent transportation and a friendly, knowledgeable team, this tour delivers. If you prefer a more customized, private experience, you might consider hiring an independent local guide instead.

The infirmation given... - The infirmation given regarding the ruins in Olympia was way too long!! The olive oil and honey farm were more a shopping spree rather than a historic experience.

It was only Expensive transportation to these locations. It almost felt like bait and switch. - This tour was booked as a honey, farm and olive oil and a tour of the Olympic site. We were disappointed that when we got to the honey farm there was an additional charge of €10 each and when we got to the Olympic site, there was a charge of €20 per person or we could sit in a coffee shop and do nothing! Very disappointed with the description compared to what Reality was !

Paid full price for half a your - They never took us to the honey farm. Instead we went to the museum, that we had to pay for out of pocket. They changed the whole tour, without giving us the option to not go and get a refund. Was supposed to be a small tour, but was a bus with 30 people. Be cautious with this company. We did speak with the instructor, they offered us a 30.00 refund for 2 people as they were complaining that they didn’t make any money on the tour.
