We had a great tour with George. He was very knowledgeable and we learned so much during our time with him.
We visited Olympia before our olive oil tasting which was his recommendation. We had a great lunch at a local taverna after our olive oil tour.
He gave us so much history and told us some great stories about traditional Greek culture. This was one of our best tours on our cruise. We never felt rushed and he got us back to our port in plenty of time.
Highly recommend!!

Authentic Greek Experience!
We’ve been in the Mediterranean for 2 weeks doing tours everywhere and this was by far our favorite. George, our driver and tour guide was a major reason we loved it as much as we did. His stories and humor were so great. The farm was great as were the oils. Lunch was delicious without a tourist in sight. Very much an authentic Greek experience. Loved it. Eucharisto George!!

A great tour. Traveling...
A great tour. Traveling to the olive oil factory we had a chance to see the beautiful countryside. Learned how the olive oil was made and had the opportunity to taste all the different kinds. Also, had the opportunity to purchase some of our favorites. Would recommend this tour.

Nice private tour
Nice day trip. Our driver was great. Took us to ancient Olympic site after olive tasting. Lunch was an opportunity to taste Greek food. Beware, if booking with friends, make sure all are on the same ticket.
Every separate booking is a separate driver.

An interesting and informative tour of an olive oil factory followed by an average lunch at a Taverna in the countryside
The driver was friendly and polite, but did not provide any information about the local area. The tour of the olive oil factory was interesting and very informative. The luncheon was average with little explanation about the dishes provided. There was an additional charge for the beers. There were cigarette smokers close by in the Taverna which was unpleasant.

Refund Refusal
If you are looking to book this tour as a cruise shore excursion, I would not recommend it. Due to a couple of days of bad weather - winds and rain, our ship's captain notified us the evening before our tour that we may not be able to dock in Katakolo port. I immediately contacted the tour operator (6:15 PM) to let them know that we may not be able to dock the next morning and that we will not know for certain until morning. At 6:45 AM the following morning when we realized that we would not be able to dock, I again contacted the tour operator to let them know the ship could not dock and they verified my communication.
I requested a refund which they refused to pay.
Over the past several years as we have sailed around the globe and booked numerous tours, several times a port was canceled at the 'last minute' due to inclement weather and once even due to civil unrest. EVERY tour operator we have dealt with in the past has kindly refunded our tours knowing we were not at fault.
However, this tour operator, THEOCAR, is the very first time that a tour operator has refused us a refund! They are very strict to the 24-hour cancellation clause, so beware! We also had to cancel our private tour in Valletta, Malta (due to same storm) and less that 24-hours from the tour start time, but refund was processed immediately.
事業者からの返答
Thank you for your review.
We would like to clarify that your tour was canceled on the same day, only 30 minutes before the scheduled start time. Unfortunately, in such cases it is impossible for us to avoid the costs already incurred, including vehicle arrangements and staff scheduling.
Please note that in Greece, the 24-hour cancellation policy is strictly enforced. All bookings are registered in official online systems, where receipts and related expenses are issued accordingly, making last-minute changes very difficult to accommodate.
We truly regret the situation, but this was beyond our control.
As a gesture of goodwill, we would be happy to offer you, on your next visit to Greece, either a complimentary car rental or a free tour.
Thank you for your understanding.
