Review of a private Athens to Olympia and Corinth tour with luxury transport, Wi-Fi, flexible stops, ancient ruins, museums, and practical tips.

“Thoroughly enjoyed our driver, Michael. Was very informative and friendly. Told us lots of interesting facts about Greece and pointed out many landmarks. The only disappointment was with the vehicle. When we booked this trip, it was mentioned we'd have a Mercedes luxury car, comfortable for 4 people. This was not a Mercedes. It was a Skoda. Three sat in the back, one up front with the driver. Sitting in the middle of the backseat for 3.5 hrs each way was not the comfortable luxury ride we were expecting and thought we paid for. We felt we didn't get the value we paid for.”

Review of the private Athens to Ancient Olympia tour, with the Corinth Canal, museums, lunch, guide tips, pricing, and practical advice.

“I wish I had a picture of Basilli, our driver, to share. He was our favorite part of our tour! He spoke enough English to answer our many questions about life in Greece. He patiently waited for our two nieces to bungee jump in the Corinth Canal (and took pictures for us!). It was a long drive to Olympia from Athens where we had lunch at a cafe and wandered the multiple historical and archeological attractions. You could spend many hours taking it all in, but it was very hot outside in late June with little shade. Don’t miss the Archimedes museum just down the street in town for some…”
