Ancient history at its best.
If you love ancient history this is a must do. The grounds and ruins are fascinsting and the artifacts put you back in the time of the original Olympic games. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and answered all our questions easily. Definitely see Olympia when in Greece.

Excellent tour to see it...
Excellent tour to see it all at a relaxed pace. We chose to see the Olympic museum and ruins, visit an olive oil mill and enjoy some beach time. All great. We loved the flavored olive oils and shipped home to the US. Our tour guide was Marilena and she was amazing. She provided just the right amount of information while she safely drove us all over the island. We would recommend the tour and suggest you request Marilena.

Best way to spend 1 day at Katakolon!!
Our tour guide, Charis, was very accommodating and knowledgeable. He provided clear instructions on where to be picked up at the port and made sure we got back on time. We never felt rushed on our tour and even though the main purpose of the tour was to visit Olympia, stopping at the local winery and beach made our visit even better. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you only have 1 day to vist.

Best Olympia Tour for Cruise Passengers from Katakolon Port
Our tour guide Theodoris was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating historical insights while keeping the tour engaging and fun. We visited breathtaking landmarks and still had plenty of free time to explore the charming local shops and enjoy an authentic lunch. The transportation was comfortable, and we appreciated the peace of mind knowing the ship wouldn't leave without us. It was a perfectly organized, unforgettable day that provided incredible value. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Olympia Tour
Wow!!! What a fun day!!! Andre was fantastic!!! I highly recommend this tour.
He even took us to get some original Greek food.
The tour of the olive oil farm topped it off!
My only advice would be to get a guide scheduled before you walk through the Olympia ruins.

An Enjoyable Time at the Olympic Ruins
This was an enjoyable afternoon at the Olympic Ruins. Alona, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and had a great command of the archaeological sites. The ruins and museum were quite impressive. Don’t miss this tour if you’re a fan of the Olympics and its history.

Wonderful experience Olympia
We really enjoyed our tour with Cristos and Nancy. We had a larger group so two cars were needed and it worked out great as a few of us needed to get back to the ship earlier. Cristos and Nancy were super accommodating and patient. We highly recommend for people who desire to create their own itineraries.

What a Great Day!
This is the best excursion and one that we enjoyed so much. Effie was our Tour Guide who was very knowledgeable and loved sharing information about her region and Alexis our driver was great. We had an amazing tour guide, Maria, at the Olympic Site ruins. She shares so much great information. I heard one woman pass by me saying about her unrelated tour that “this was underwhelming “ and I really wanted to tell her she had the wrong tour guide! Maria brought the original Olympics to life for us! She was awesome, I could have spent a week with her. She was so knowledgeable and made a pile of rocks come to life! Then off to the beekeepers home…Klio and her mother, Theodore were so lovely and kind and made us feel so welcome in their home. In Klio’s beautiful gardens we were treated to Quince spoon treats, a delicious juice and Greek coffee as she shared her beekeeping trade. We were able to sample some honey on a traditional baked good while her mother shared the natural healing effects of honey in their products. Afterwards we visited Elena at Padelina’s where we learned about and sampled olive oils, balsamic vinegars SO Yummy! Thank You so much for picking these guides for us!!!!!

An Unforgettable Highlight of Our Trip to Greece!
If you are visiting Olympia, booking with Stathis is an absolute must. From start to finish, his local expertise, warmth, and genuine hospitality made this one of the absolute best stops of our entire Greek vacation.
Stathis timed our day flawlessly. Thanks to his intimate knowledge of the area, we were able to see all the major sights right at the best moments, completely bypassing the massive tourist crowds. Beyond being an exceptional guide, he is an amazingly kind and thoughtful host. He made sure our whole group had a great time and paid extra-special attention to our 8-year-old son, even bringing him homemade cookies that he absolutely loved!
To top off his incredible generosity, Stathis gifted us a bottle of Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, claiming it was the best in Greece—and after trying it back home, we can confirm he wasn't wrong!
We ended our tour at an authentic Greek restaurant right on the water that Stathis recommended. Getting to take a quick swim in the sea before sitting down to an incredible meal was the perfect finale to a wonderful day. Stathis's personality, deep expertise, and over-the-top kindness made this experience unforgettable. We cannot recommend him highly enough!

Excellent Tour
Excellent tour! Meeting point came with very clear directions. Small group transportation was clean and comfortable with safe driving.
Despina provided great information on the way to Olympia. She was especially good with our kids, even though the trip was for all ages. Maria did a great job leading us through the Olympic site. The small group was a big benefit over the large tour groups at the site. The beach visit after came with reserved seating at no additional cost and was a great way to relax after visiting the ruins. Overall a great tour and excellent value especially compared to the cruise ship excursions.

Stress Free in Olympia
Dora was our guide. She was AMAZING! Pick up was easy and quick. The van was clean and air conditioned. I was really impressed. Dora gave us various information about the area as well as the Olympic history. Being from the area, she shared local traditions and best spots for eating and shopping. She guided around the ancient site before we got there with stories of the history and what to expect. When we actually arrived, we felt like we knew the area and it made it our experience more enjoyable. Dora guided us through out the day. She could tell I was overwhelmed with the new environment/ city and she eased my mind by taking time to explain everything from where to go and where to meet. Dora was always there to help out. When we went to the beach, she had our umbrella and lounge chairs ready for us. The beach was beautiful. Don’t forget your goggles. I highly recommend this tour. I wish I could do it again.

Excellent experience across all of Olympia
Fantastic experience. Joanna was our tour leader, and she accommodated our every request across all of the different events, even getting us a personal guide at the last moment for Olympia. We had less time than we expected, so we didn't get to do all of the events, but Joanna worked with us to ensure we did all the things we wanted and spent the time we had on what we preferred. Fantastic experience all around.
