I was curious to know what this tour would bring that’s why I have included this in my itinerary. I wasn’t wrong because it I didn’t expect to enjoy this tour very well. Thanks to our tour guide Alexander, he drove me to the location with so much enthusiasm and excitement. He always put smile on his face which makes the tour more friendly and enjoyable. He even gave me a free Fredo coffee because he knows I like it. Alexander is the best tour guide that I knew of. He knows so much about the rich history of Greece. He guided me on how to go to places and recommended sites where I can shop and dine.
We went to the Canal first which has nice stories into it. The view from the bridge was magnificent. Alexander mentioned that some people does jump from it as a sport. Well that was nerve wracking!
Then, to the olive oil tour. It was a different experience than I expected because the 4th generation owner (Nikkos) who was on site, let’s you witness the entire process from the cultivation, to harvesting to smashing and filtering process plus a virtual tour for that extra unique experience. Everything were well explained and questions were all answered. I recommend this tour most especially for olives and olive oil lovers. There is an olive oil tasting included which I think was a fantastic part it. They also have the bottles ready for purchases if you wish so. I recommend this tour!
