Our half day tour in Olympia was fabulous, Our tour guide Charis gave us lots of information on the area, and after walking around Olympia we stopped at Klio’s honey farm- a must do! It was so fascinating to learn about the bees and ancient processes that are still in use today. Next, we stopped at a local restaurant to grab a gyros, yum! It was hot out so we decided to head back to the cruise ship. If you’re on a cruise, the town of Katakolo looks quaint and had a lot of shops to walk around. Otherwise a half day was the perfect amount of time for our group to see Olympia, the honey farm, and grab a local Greek meal.

We were told there would be no guide just driver. We had both and were delighted with the tour. We had a group of 31 and they particularly loved the honey farm- go figure. It was a good time

The ancient Olympic ruins and museum is not to be missed. Our guide. Andrew was the absolute best! Born and raised on the island, his knowledge and good nature made our tour priceless. He even finalized our tour by making a stop at his favorite local seaside restaurant so we could enjoy a lovely lunch.
I’d highly recommend this tour and a bonus that it is accessible.

Tina was great! Totally customized the trip for our group of 6. The olive press visit was interesting and the tasting was awesome.

Our tour guide was so-so. Not much to see in Olympia. The one good thing about having a private tour is that you dont feel rushed at all. Missed the museum because of miscommunication from our guide.

Our guide was great. She was very knowledgeable about the area and was great with my overheated kids. Although seeing ancient Olympia was amazing we loved going to Klio's honey farm. It was very cool seeing this farm ran after many generations. My daughter was basically drinking the honey. Such a cool experience.

This is a fantastic tour that includes the Greek history, nature and a beautiful beach. Our family (ages 22 to 80) had an amazing time. Harris is the BEST tour guide we’ve ever had. He is personable, fun and truly cares about people.
The Olympia ruins and museum were very interesting. Klio’s Honey Farm was really nice. They served everyone coffee, juice, water and wafers with honey. We bought Klio’s honey wax cream. It’s a moisturizing antiseptic. It has healing properties because it’s helping my mom’s psoriasis!
The beach location was beautiful and had a restaurant and bar.
Finally, we want to give a special thanks to Harris for going above and beyond to help our family. We needed to go to the Health Center and pharmacy. Harris took us there and served as an interpreter. We got our dad the medication, which literary saved our vacation. We will always be incredibly grateful.
