5日間のプライベートツアー：メテオラ-デルファイ-オリンピア＆アルゴリダ

We had booked our tours via Firebird tours. Olive Sea travel was a great choice by Firebird. Our tours consisted of the following: - Athens City Tour - Meteora Monasteries - Trip to Delphi - Trip to Corinth, Epidaurus, Mycenae, Nafplion - Sunset tour to Cape Sounion - Trip to Ancient Olympia Nikos was our driver for the 5 of the 6 tours. He did a superb job making our tour great and memorable. He always replenished our bottled water during the tours. Suggested excellent restaurants for lunch and dinner. Our tours guides Vasso, Matina, and Angelo were excellent. They were deeply knowledgeable, knew how to translate history, culture, and stories behind what you’re seeing into vivid narratives. All were highly personable and approachable.

Olive Sea did a very good job organizing this five day private tour of several key archeological and awe-inspiring sites around mainland Greece. The itinerary was nicely arranged to be engaging but avoid stress, and the lodgings exceeded our expectations. Our driver Christos truly made this a special experience. I say driver, but he was more of a guide. He was smooth navigating the various roads. He shared countless anecdotes and recommendations (his restaurant suggestions were amazing and avoided tourist traps). He provided context around the various sites. In truth, he became more of a friend for our time together, and that made the tour extra special.

We both love history and so for our honeymoon to Greece, it was important to us that we see some of the top archaeological sites. We didn't want to be on a tour bus with tons of people, nor did we want the stress of renting a car and having to find our own way on what should be a relaxing honeymoon experience. After a bit of research on trip advisor, I came across Olive Sea. One of the reasons I reached out to them was because of the various reviews discussing how great the customer service was, etc. That was my experience as well. Given that I was coordinating an important trip halfway across the world and 7 hours ahead of our east coast timezone, it was important that I felt confident in our tour provider. My primary contact before the trip, Dimitra, answered all of my questions, made suggestions without being pushy, and was highly responsive and detail oriented. I was already feeling very good about the tour before we went. Our driver, Christos, picked up the ball from there and ran with it. He was excellent. Truly. We couldn't have been happier. He was friendly, warm, and informative without ever being intrusive (we were on our honeymoon after all). He was flexible and catered to our interests (history nerds). We spent a lot of the driving time chatting with him about Greece, history, and life. The sites themselves were obviously incredible and I would recommend asking Olive Sea to hire guides for you at each. They were really great for adding context and teaching us about the various places we were visiting. For our honeymoon, we went to Athens for a few days, did this tour for 5 days, then Santorini and Paros. All of it was wonderful, but the tour was quite possibly our favorite. In sum, I would recommend Olive Sea without reservation to anyone traveling to Greece.
