Overview

This small group half-day tour from the port of Katakolon will take you to ancient Olympia, the playground of the Gods and heroes of Greek mythology and where the Olympic flame is lit for each Olympiad.

This blessed land is home to one of the finest agricultural produce in the country, the olive oil. Discover the products of the olive tree, the symbol of immortality and wisdom on a free olive oil and wine tasting experience at a local market.

Then, go off-the-beaten-path into a farm filled with fruit trees and vegetables and find Greek hospitality. Learn all about the circle of life of the bees by a local bee keeper and taste local delicacies accompanied with local artisan's honey.

Finally, spend some time at the village of Katakolon for shopping and lunch by the sea front.
