Very understanding tour office - Unfortunately our cruise ship could not stop at the port due to high winds. I contacted the tour operator and they were very understanding. The refunded my money right away. I hope the next time I go to Greece get to go to Olympia. Great people, understating and honest. I recommend this tour operator and the tours they offer. Thank you

Amazing experience - great way to explore the area! - Great driver and very comfortable car. Exploring the well-preserved ruins was like stepping back in time, and the Olympia Archaeological Museum added another layer of fascination with its valuable artifacts.
The cultural immersion at the winery was a delightful surprise. Sampling Famous Greek fine wines made us appreciate the Mediterranean's culinary heritage.
The seamless blend of contemporary life with historical charm in the village was captivating, making the entire journey feel even more special.
This small group tour is a must for anyone seeking an intimate and enriching encounter with Ancient Olympia's heritage. It left us with cherished memories and a deeper appreciation for the ancient world.

Great value flexible trip - Easy to locate pick up point as driver had card with our name on. Car was comfortable and air conditioned. We had originally included winery but suggested to Yanis (our driver) that we would like to go to olive farm instead. He was happy to accomodate and gave us other options to consider within the timeframe as well.
Yanis was excellent, spoke reasonable English and shared his local knowledge with us. Drop off and pick up at Olympia were easy and Yanis was happy to fit in with the time we wanted etc. Visit to both the bee farm and olive farm were very good and well worth visiting and made nice contrast to Olympia.

The Way to Go - It was so great to have a private drive to the Olympic ruins and museum, bee farm and distillery. We had been on many bus excursions that were crowded and we enjoyed nice easy drive.

A Hassle-Free Trip to Ancient Olympia - Great excursion! Driver was timely and informative. Ancient Olympia is a must see. The site is well signed in several languages but also has a downloadable app, which provides a rich history of the site.

Private Driver Only - Although our driver was very friendly, he was not very knowledgeable about the history of the locations that we visited. Just a fair warning, this is essentially a private uber to take you between sites. Also, the bee farm was an additional cost that was not clear when booking the excursion. We didn't get to attend the winery, so I'm not sure if that was also an additional cost.
