Amazing Lake, Olive oil Tasting and Temple Tour - We had a wonderful day with Giorgos. Everything was first class. Swimming and relaxing at the lake, visiting the temple and enjoying the views and lunch at a seaside village enjoying were all amazing. However, the highlight of our tour was the olive oil tasting. This was spectacular! The family was so hospitable and the presentation and flavors at the tasting were exceptional. They really made us feel special. We learned so much and were treated to many extra gifts. We would highly suggest this tour to all our friends and family. Thank you for offering this fantastic tour

Great hidden gem of a tour! Must do in Athens! - Our guide George picked us up just outside the cruise port, and we started our adventures! We forgot our towels, so George located a store we could purchase one at for us. The lake was a one of a kind experience with the fish nipping at you. Then, off to the oil mill. We were all impressed at the functioning oil mill! The owners treated us like family guests! They shared with us not only how the oil was made but also how important it was to their culture. Then we stopped at Poseidon's temple and enjoyed the history. George was a very good guide and made our tour memorable!
