Great guides Anastasia and Costa

5.00Today we visited Ancient Olympia and had such a great experience thanks to our guides Costa and Anastasia. Both were incredibly knowledgeable and brought the history of Olympia to life in a way that kept us interested the whole time. Their passion for the site and Greek history really showed through. The stories, explanations and little details they shared made the ruins so much more meaningful than if we had walked around on our own. They were also friendly, funny and happy to answer questions throughout the tour. We came away feeling like we had learnt a lot while still having a really enjoyable day. Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Olympia.
Amazing Visit to the Ancient Olympics

5.00We were a group of six seniors who booked The Travel Insiders for a private half-day tour from the port of Katakolon to the Olympic site. Elena was an extremely knowledgable and engaging guide to the Archeological Museum and the Olympic site and Despina managed the logistics of the trip wonderfully. Our visit exceeded expectations: Elena had us caught up in the spirit of the ancient Olympics, the magic of the excavations that produced fabulous artifacts for the Museum, and the sweep of the Olympic site itself. We appreciated the seamless manner in which we were collected from our cruise ship, as well as the advice about timing to avoid crowds to the extent possible. We would not hesitate to recommend The Travel Insiders for their professionalism, enthusiasm and impressive subject matter knowledge, and general value for money.

5.00This tour with Elena and Despena was our favorite tour of Greece. Elena met us at the port and took us by taxi to the Olympia museum and we were the first ones there. So awesome. We toured the Olympic Games site and she made me an olive wreath crown to wear. We then met up with her sister Despena who took us to a beautiful old monastery where nuns now live in the hills of olympia. It was beautiful. We are overlooking a gorgeous beach and had a wonderful relaxing lunch. We highly recommend taking this tour and skipping the ship tours. Thank you travel Insiders.

5.00Elena was a very knowledgeable guide who shared great information with us at both the Olympic sight and the museum. The timing at both places was great and she was patient with our questions. When we mentioned our special interest in learning the sculpting techniques, she took us to a nearby sculptor’s workshop (Smili) for us to visit how ancient sculpting techniques are practiced. It was an enjoyable half day and we highly recommend her!

5.00Coming to Olympia and seeing the most beautiful , intact artifacts was an amazing experience. The knowledge of our guide helped bring everything together. After the museum and the archeological site we went to a cooking class at an amazing seaside hotel. Everyone was so nice and so knowledgeable. It is one of the best experiences my son and I have had in Greece.
