Great Private Tour

Published on Jul, 2024

An incredible tour. Peter was on-time, a great communicator and made this an amazing experience for my wife and I. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Exactly what we had hoped for with a private tour!

Wonderful experience! Peter was fantastic and very helpful. He went out of his way to help us get pictures! I would recommend booking a guide for inside the museum and ruins at Olympia, but Peter had a great video outlining what the buildings looked like originally for us to watch after visiting. Very interesting experience! Highly recommend!

First time at Ancient Olympia! A must see!

Published on Sep, 2023

Our private tour of the Ancient Olympia archaeological site and museum was an unforgettable experience for us history buffs. Our exceptional driver guide, Yannis, made the day truly remarkable. His deep knowledge and passion for history shone through as he shared fascinating insights throughout the tour, giving us ample time to explore the site at our own pace. To top it off, we enjoyed a delightful lunch at an authentic Greek taverna, savoring the flavors of Greece. As an unexpected bonus, we were treated to a free upgrade to a luxurious Mercedes Van for our journey. This tour was a perfect blend of history, culture, and comfort, and we can't recommend it enough. Thank you, Yannis, for making our day at Ancient Olympia so special!

Awesome driver, great experience, learnt a lot

Published on Sep, 2023

This is a lovely and memorable experience Our driver Manos was well versed in history, was fluent in English and made every effort to make sure we had a great time. Manos we cannot thank you enough for all your efforts! Olympia and Isthmus Canal were both amazing and definitely worth the trip
