Take in the main sites of Katakolon and Olympia, which was the birthplace of the Olympic Games. Visit a local olive oil factory or a honey bee farm and the area's nicest beach.

The tour didn't get off to a very good start. We had arranged for a winery visit and were told we would be going to a bee farm (not happening). There were added costs that we weren't made aware off. When we got the winery we were booked in for a taster and were not given the option for lunch, despite our guide having the lunch. However, one can't deny the beauty that Katakolon had to offer.

The Olympic ruins were beyond amazing. To walk through and imagine what used to be thousands of years ago is an incredible site. Walking through the museum was a great connection between the ruins and artifacts.
Kilo Honey Farm was a lovely treat. The farm is run by the sweetest mother-daughter duo. They welcomed us into their home and treated us to some delicious treats!
Our guide, Nasia, was very accommodating, sweet and informative!!

The start of the tour was great. We left early at 8am and got to Olympia before the crowd's got there.
After we went to a great little honey bee farm and tasted some of the products they make, I recommend doing that. The lady was great that owns the farm.
After that we went to a beautiful gorgeous resort place by the ocean that had a little beach and had food/drinks.

Andreas was great, he got our tickets for us, waited patiently for us to come back, then took us to the organic olive oil farm and made the arrangements for us.
I highly recommend him!

Basically the tour was just transportation to Olimpia and then to a bee farm. No guide transalates in a ride on a bus where you get very little information. At least the bee farm had more content and more explanation

Incredibly enjoyable day. Our driver took us to Olympia where we had plenty of time to explore on our own. He gave us the opportunity to shop in town for a little while instead of going to the beach, as we were the only family on the tour. We then had the choice to either visit a winery or a honey farm. We chose the winery which became a highlight of our trip. Magna Grecia was family run and we ate a delicious lunch, sampled excellent wine and olive oil as well. We are 6 adults and a 1 year old and we all had an amazing, memory making day.

Great tour catered to your interests. Andrew and his son Harrison, were gracious hosts. We they gave us information about the city. They did not go into Olympia with us (which would have been great to have more information about the site), but we had read up on this site before coming. They took us to a honey farm which was possibly as interesting as Olympia! Plus, we got a delicious snack and got to taste amazing honey. the van was well appointed and air conditioned which was very welcomed!

Andreas met us at the port ready to do what we asked. There were 8 in our group and we fit comfortably in his clean van. We went directly to Olympia and he gave information along the way. We had some special requests and he met each one perfectly. If you want a nice day with an attentive driver, be sure to book this tour!

We were met promptly at the designated place by a smiling driver and enjoyed a relaxing, personalised shore excursion visiting Olympia, a honey farm and a monastery. It was a great experience and represented great value for money.
