Dimitris was our guide and we can't say enough good things about this trip. We were on a cruise and from the very first text message he was very accommodating for our schedule and made our day great. His car ran smoothly and was very clean. He was very concerned that we have a good time and enjoy his beautiful country. He shared with us many inside tips and showed us beautiful sights. We visited Olympia, a bee farm and had an authentic Greek lunch. Dimitris spared nothing on our experience. We would highly recommend this tour.

George was brilliant. So knowledgeable and helpful. Made our visit easy and lots of fun. Took us to additional place as wine tasting was unavailable (not his fault) and it was a beautiful meal with much culture and with the locals of the village. George provided help to get into attractions and guidance with how to make best use of our time. The bee farm was a highlight. Kilo is so lovely and has a passion for her bees and her family. It was nice to be invited into her home and we learnt so much about bees that we had never heard before. The honey is delicious and so is her special family treat!! This was an excursion we will always remember. Thank you George ❤️

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that your time with George was memorable and filled with meaningful experiences. He truly loves sharing the local culture, and it’s great to know his knowledge, flexibility, and guidance helped make your visit easy and enjoyable.
We’re also happy you loved the bee farm visit. Kilo is indeed passionate about her bees, and it’s heartwarming to hear how much you enjoyed her hospitality, stories, and—of course—the delicious honey and family treats.
Thank you again for choosing this excursion and for sharing your kind words. We’re thrilled that it’s a memory you’ll always cherish. ❤️

Great day of Olympia and a bee farm plus olive oil tasting. Vicky was a great driver and helped us with the bee farm and olive oil reservations. The bee farm was very interesting and we got to taste the honey. Same with the olive oil. First press just happened do we got to taste that special press! We were on our own time and not with a group. We could move at our own pace. Very easy to find right outside the port. Excellent communication with WhatsApp. Highly recommend.

We had a private van with Dimitris driving. We had an excellent time. Starting at the original Olympic site. Then to an interesting bee farm. We ended at a family restaurant and had a delicious family style Greek lunch. Avopouanaxas restaurant.

Our first time to Olympia and George showed us the best time. Great scenic drive on our way to the Bee Farm and Winery. Didn’t know what to expect at the bee farm, but it was so interesting and great tasting. I am from California and know really good wine, but the Greek wine from Olympian Land Estates was as good as we have tasted! We had a great tasting of five wines and a liquor. But the highlight of our trip was our driver/guide George. He couldn’t have been nicer and knew so much about Olympia. Would highly recommend this tour!

We had an excellent time, if you are looking to visit Greece and see some of the more natural, scenic, and very tasty routes take this trip. The first visit to the Olympic stadium was impressive. Got a chance to take a lap on the first stadium. From there the visit to the farm was very nostalgic. We got to learn about bees and the honey making process by the very warm and friendly staff. We were also treated to some tasty honey and welcome juices and fruits. We finished the trip in the Tavernia Machi. The food was absolutely spectacular and so was the service.
Response from Host, Oct 2025

We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for more scenic and delicious adventures in Greece!

George was our driver, and he was absolutely phenomenal! He shared all kinds of fun facts about Greek culture, flexed to a special request we had, and made our day all the more special.
Beyond our time with George, the experiences were wonderful and unique. Highly recommend!

This was my first time using this tour and Viator. I am in a scooter. Our guide was George. He was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and explained all the history of Olympia. We wanted to go the museum and he took us there. He took us to a restaurant because we were hungry. He made the tour what we wanted. Everyone should take this tour with George. We were extremely happy.

Andreas was a very courteous and professional driver. He made sure our Olympia experience fulfilled our expectations then took us to an olive oil mill. With our limited time, this was perfect! Thank you for a great excursion!

Jeffrey_L, Jun 2024
The bee farm was amazing we highly recommend it, but the tour was just ok, and our guide who was supposed to be non smoking was smoking every time we stopped so our car smelled of smoke. Also, Dimitris our driver/guide was not a very happy person and just wanted to complain to us about their economy and how horrible everyone is doing there. Not very uplifting or what we expect on a tour.
Kimberly_M, Jun 2024
Absolutely amazing !! Dinos our tour guide was fantastic! He was familiar with so much history and was constantly sharing it with us. He went out of his way to make sure we saw and did everything we wanted to do. The honey farm was quaint and the family winery was very relaxing! Olympia is just breathtaking. If you are able to request Dinos please do. You won’t be disappointed.
Heather_H, Jun 2024
The people were so friendly, the history was amazing and the bee farm and winery exquisite. This was a port that got changed, but glad we went here
Gary_B, May 2024
Our private driver, Sbyros, was exceptional and he took very good care of us. The tour to Ancient Olympia and the museum was outstanding! Plus, the additional visits to Klio’s Honey Farm and the Olympia Olive Oil Company was outstanding! Lastly, Sbyros took is to a little village near the Katakolo port for a traditional home made Greek lunch…a simply wonderful day!!
Krista_T, May 2024
Dimitrios was amazing! He made sure that we really immersed ourselves in the culture of the area. Our grandparents came from Greece and Dimitrios shared information about the island they came from. Of course, we enjoyed historic Olympia and the bee farm, but the highlight was feeling like family with Dimitrios!
Stephanie_S, May 2024
Paul was a wonderful driver for our tour.
He was ver personable and geared the tour to our likes.
The ruins, the olive oil farm, and the honey farm were all great.
Would have helped if driver used What’s App for communicating pick up locations, etc. but it still was 5 star!
Thomas_A, Nov 2023
Tour was changed due to the weather, but we enjoyed lunch at the winery. We were able to buy honey in town.

Thank you for choosing our tour. Unfortunately the weather wasn't the best, so you could enjoy your tour more!

Easy, informative and to the point.
Recommendations provided for local providers which enhanced our local experience. Would recommend to anyone visiting. Enjoyable ride.
David_W, Oct 2023
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.

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.

Dimitrius was our driver who scheduled all our stops for the day. We visited Ancient Olympia (incredible!), Kilo’s Honey Farm (absolutely delightful and informative) and Olympialand Winery (spectacular). This day has been one of the highlight yog our cruise!

Despite needing to make a last second reservation after our cruise and another company failed us, Dimitris picked us up on time and with a smile on his face. He was a terrific host throughout the day, and he catered the tour to exactly what we wanted. He gave great tips on what to see to make the most of our time, and we packed a lot into a short time. Olympia was amazing, and the wine tasting was at a cute family owned place. This was a perfect trip!

The trip to the Bee Farm was the highlight of our holiday. The warm hospitality from 3 generations of the ladies from the same family at this small family business was amazing. It’s tucked away but is a real hidden treasure. From the proud Grandma of the family who treats you like her own to her hard working daughter who is so passionate about what she does.
Our driver was great and also took us to the ruins at Olympia and the immaculate winery.

Dimitris was a fantastic tour guide /driver. Provided us wonderful details about historic sites, life on the island and has great charisma. We visited family owned bee farm, wine tasting, had lunch at a local joint and visited Olympus. Fantastic day with a great human. Tour guides sometimes forget about how important it is to connect with their customer. Dimitris was fantastic!
