We had only an afternoon stop with MSC Magnifica. Geo-travel were at the blue and white shop outside of port gate. 10€ return to Olympia. Giorgio our guide was great, showing us exactly where to go for Olympia and museum tickets. For tjosecwho didn't want to buy he directed them to the sight for panoramic views for free. Used tgem.for other tours, very organisef and know the cruise itinerary so back in plenty of time.

Siamo stati agganciati da una signorina di nome Manuela, durante visita al sito archeologico di Olimpia, proponendoci per il giorno successivo visita di Atene, l'Acropoli, cambio della guardia, Tempio di Zeus Olimpico e tempo libero a Plaka per un po di shoppins. Costo 20€ a persona e lei come accompagnatrice. Ha voluto solo i nostri nominativi e dato indicazioni per come trovarla il giorno successivo all'uscita del porto del Pireo. E' andato tutto perfetto, lei simpatica e professionale con il suo sorriso simpaticissimo. Consiglio per chi fa una crociera, non prenotate escursioni offerte in nave, costano troppo e in qualsiasi posto andate, trovate sempre chi vi offre le stesse escursioni a prezzi nettamente inferiori.
