Greece is Like the Planet’s Knowledgeable Grandparent

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.

Tour guides were fabulous. A great way to explore the area. Especially since it was very warm out Wines were excellent and tour of Mycenae was very different. So glad we had the opportunity for this tour vs just wandering the town. Thank you!
