Outstanding educational and tasty excursion !

Published on Sep, 2024

Eleni, the Olympic site guide, and driver Consta were excellent. The stops to learn about the production and taste the olive oil at Padelina in Ancient Olympia and the history of honey collection and its use at Klio’s honey farm were fascinating and tasty additions to an already wonderful experience. We would highly recommend this excursion.

Taste and see!

Published on Aug, 2024

This experience was AMAZING! My wife and I found this, and we had wanted to go taste local cuisine and see the Olympic site, and this was the perfect combo!!! Our group was picked up from the port in a comfy private coach, where our amazing guide talked us through the area driving the 30 minutes toward Olympia. After arrival, we had an amazing guided tour through the beautiful and historic Olympic site, and then were taken a few minutes away to a local bee farm, named Kilos Bee Farm. There, we got to meet the owner, Kilo, who offered us drinks and some light refreshments as she explained the life of bees, how honey is made, and allowed us to try her products and purchase some for home! Finally, we drove to a small flea market to try some amazing local olive oils and balsamic, before finally driving back to the town. For anyone who’s a history and food fan, this is the trip for you!!! HIGHLY recommended for all ages!

Olympic site, Honeyfarm and olive oil tasting

Published on Jun, 2024

A wonderful experience visiting the Olympic site, our tour guide was very knowledgeable. I would also highly recommend visiting the Klios Honey Farm. It was an Authentic and quaint Family owned business passed down from 3 generations. The olive oil tasting was a great place to Stop & Shop.

Katakolon at it’s Best

Published on Jun, 2024

Such a great time to go to Olympia during an Olympic year! Seeing the museum first and then the tour of Olympia is highly recommended as it helps to picture the place and understand the history and meaning. We really enjoyed the bee farm also and the honey was extra delicious!

Best Way to Experience Katakolon

Published on May, 2024

This was an amazing tour. Our guide held together a very diverse group of people with many questions. The archeological ruins were spectacular. The most special part of the trip was the visit to the honey bee farm where the owner was knowledgeable and open about honey bee farming, something many of us never think about. It was also good to move from place to place in a comfortable van to see the Katakolon area. The olive oil tasting was good and offered opportunity for shopping. The tour is long, so be sure you have enough time to take the tour. We were rushing back to the boat, but it was worth it. We seemed to have a better experience than those who merely did the park with a larger tour.
