Olive oil 101! - This experience was amazing! Marianna provided such good guidance, history and personal insights about the olive oil making process and the oil itself, while chef Melina provided us with delicious foods and pairings centered around the oils. Informative, friendly, welcoming and just an all around special time- especially set amongst the olive trees.

Highly recommend! Amazing tour/tasting… - My husband and I went with two friends to Oleosophia for an olive oil tasting experience. What an amazing experience! Awesome views and gracious hostesses. Marianna (owner) and her friend Melina set a lovely table for our tasting experience with bread, tzatziki, grapes, yogurt, oranges, olives cooked with sugar(an unexpected delicious treat), water (to cleanse the palate), etc. Marianna was an excellent teacher regarding all things olive… how the trees are cared for and harvested, how to correctly taste and evaluate olive oils, and how to pair other food items with olive oils. She put out various olive oils out for us to sample. We learned how to evaluate bouquet, level of bitterness, and level of pungent taste. We also learned how to identify if an oil was subquality and even rancid. Both Marianna and Melina were warm and personable and passionate about the Oleosophia products. The oils and grape syrup products we sampled were delicious and we have placed the first of many orders with them! Lorri and Bob Golin, Maine USA

Unforgettable Olive Oil Tasting – A Must-Do Day Trip from Athens! - This olive oil tasting at Oleosophia was one of the highlights of our trip to Greece! From the very beginning, Marianna welcomed us with warmth and genuine passion. She is so knowledgeable and answered every question with enthusiasm, making the experience feel personal and engaging. You can tell she truly loves what she does. The setting is stunning — right in the middle of the olive groves — which makes it feel authentic and far from the usual tourist stops. We tasted several different olive oils, guided step by step on how to appreciate their flavors. On top of that, the food served alongside was extremely generous, much more than we expected. For the quality and quantity, the value is outstanding. Honestly, it feels like it should cost more. This is not a “standard” tasting; it is a genuine cultural and culinary experience, with award-winning products of the highest quality. Practical tips for travelers: • It’s about a 90-minute drive from Athens, perfect as a day trip or stopover when exploring the Peloponnese. • Easy to combine with nearby villages and sites, so you can make a full day of it. • Parking was simple and convenient. • Family-friendly — our young child also enjoyed being there. • Best to book in advance to secure your spot, as the experience feels small and personalized. I would recommend this experience to absolutely anyone — food lovers, families, couples, or anyone who wants to connect with Greek culture in a meaningful way. Definitely worth the detour!

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.
