We had an amazing time in this tour! Initially worried there might be too many things for one day, the pace was great and each stop was given ample time to enjoy. Kilo’s Honey Farm was delightful and educational, the host was warm, genuine and passionate about her craft. The samples were wonderful and we purchased a number of products for gifts. Our Ancient Olympia guide Elena was equally great, she navigated us through throngs of large tours and made sure to address the exhibits in the museum and the features of the archaeological site with details and knowledge. Our final stop was the olive oil tasting, and our host blew our mind with the array and complexity of the oils, olives, and sweets, showing us how to combine some for enhanced flavourings. His shop also had a vast selection of gifts and souvenirs. Throughout the day, our driver Nasos was helpful, kind, and kept us on time, making sure we had sufficient time at each stop. Highly recommend this tour for a day adventure around the area.
