This tour was mind blowing! Our guide at the Epidaurus site was extremely knowledgeable and personable. The olive oil tour was very nice. I suspect an olive oil tour is more memorable when the harvest season is in full action.
Wonderful, would do again

Sophia was a fantastic tour guide, so friendly and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great guide who is English speaking. She curated a wonderful group of vendors who gave us a great taste of the city.
