Rated 4.8 out of 5

Here's what our guests have to say

  • If you are considering a tour if your cruise stops in/near Katakolon or the Olympia area, go with Katakolon Transfers. The 8 of us were very comfortable in a beautiful van. Visiting the Olympic site was magical; tasting wine at Olympia Land Winery with Amanda was great; seeing (and enjoying) a family-owned olive press and the pride of mama and her son was much fun (and yummy). Our last stop was St. Andreas Beach and a perfect ending. You won't be disappointed!

  • Our tour with Christos was wonderful. I am mobility challenged and he went out of his way to make it easier for me to see the sights. His knowledge of the area is incredible and we enjoyed listening to all that he had to say. He also found a wonderful, out-of-the way, eaterie with local food and wine that was soooo good. Definitely a company to recommend.

  • Our tour of Olympia was amazing. Georgina and Christos were fantastic. My wife and I were a little worried before the tour if our kids (ages 17,14 & 11) would be kept interested and we were so pleasantly surprised. They all enjoyed Georgina's historical explanations of the ruins and her fun personality. I would highly recommend this tour to any and all. Thank you for making our family vacation so memorable.
