A chill day
The Olympic archeological park is very large and spread out, lots of walking and stairs, so not great for older or people needing wheelchairs. It was very interesting and it’s cool to imagine the days of the first Olympics. I’d highly suggest a guided tour- we didn’t have one, just a simple guidebook and it wasn’t quite enough. Klios honey farm was quaint and interesting and the hosts are wonderful. The Oilympia Koufolias olive oil factory tour and tasting was cool to me but my teenagers were a little bored. Our driver Andreas was nice and a good safe driver!

It was a personalize tour which made it very pleasant. The driver was very attentive. The honey bee farm was nice. However, I would not recommend the St. Andrew Beach, the beach was not clean.
