Very kind guide George, and excellent, safe bus driver, Nikos!

5.00Very worthwhile visit to the musrums and UNESCO site. Be sure to get a coffee to "take away" from Mikalis at Pita Gyros/Coffee Stop right outside the port next to the light blue building in the salmom colored building!
Excellent service.

5.00Excellent service and way cheaper than the transport offered by the cruise line. George from the office at Katakolo cruise port came with us to Olympia and assisted those who needed to buy tickets to the site. Very helpful. It was raining on the way back to the port and the driver dropped us off as close as possible to the port entrance. Would happily recommend.
Easy transport to Olympia

5.00The tour organiser was very well organised and flexible. Our cruise arrived early but we were able to change to an earlier bus. They were very punctual. It was the best way to visit Olympia
Just take a seat and enjoy the ride!

5.00Easy to find the pick up location. The customer service and guide were fantastic from start to finish. Just note that you are only paying for the travel to and from Olympia. You will need to buy a ticket to see the ruins and museum when you arrive. €20 gets you into both. Short walk to local shops if you have enough time with lots of souvenirs and restaurants.
Knowledgeable guide on motorcoach to and from Olympia

5.00Tina our guide was very knowledgeable on the bus ride up. We enjoy a self guided tour of the ruins and also spent time in Olympia shopping and eating baklava. The time we had was more than enough without feeling rushed.
Great trip

5.00Easy to find pickup place from port in katakolon. Met lovely gentleman guide (sorry can’t remember his name). Was only 4 of us on the coach but he gave us lots of info about the area and took us right to the ticket office at Olympia and pointed out museums etc. plenty of time to walk round on our own and picked up promptly to return to ship. Thoroughly recommended

5.00Recommend if you are coming from a cruise and want time to visit Olympia. The bus ride was about 40 mins to Olympia. The bus was nice and had AC. Once at Olympia, we had about 3 hours before the bus took us back to our cruise port.
