We will start our journey from Athens to Corinth. First sight will be the popular Corinth Canal where we will stop for photoshooting. Next stop will be Ancient Corinth and Saint Paul's monument(epistle to Corinthians). Inside the site of Ancient Corinth you will visit the magnificent temple of Apollo, the Bema of Saint Paul and many more. After that we will head to the unique medieval fortress of Acrocorinth. The view from there is breathtaking! Also fresh local fruits and water will be provided in the minivan to enjoy on your way to the top! Last but not least is the olive oil experience. Olive oil is part of Greek diet since the ancient times. In this experience you will visit a traditional, family olive oil farm. You will observe closely the olive trees in the farm and you will learn a lot about the procces of oil production. Also you will taste different awarded extra virgin olive oils in the special glasses like a professional taster and food pairing with local products will be served .
We had an amazing time. Our guide was very engaging with our teenage sons and us. His vehicle was beautiful. Everything was perfect punctual clean, and friendly. We loved the destinations and just had a great time. You are in good hands with Nicholas. The drone was a special added touch that was so cool and gave us something special to remember the tour.
Excellent tour, very informative and interesting. It was nice to get out of Athens and see some sights. The Corinth Canal was amazing and Nikolaus brought his drone and took some fabulous group photos of us. He was also so kind to take drone photos at the Agra Corinth and share those as well. The olive tasting was fun; we actually were in the personal home of the olive oil producers. The five of us learned so much about tasting good olive oil versus bad. Overall, Nikolaus was an awesome guide sharing his knowledge about Greece, local history and unique facts. I would highly recommend Nikolaus as a guide and also suggest to take this tour. Thanks again for a wonderful day.
This tour was a highlight of our stay in Athens. Nikolas is a wealth of information. He was attentive to our needs and provided all the information and details that we needed to safely enjoy our time visiting Corinth and the olive farm. We were a group of 8 adults and we were comfortable throughout our day long tour. Nikolas also had recommendations for places to eat for our time in Athens. We highly recommend Nikolas and this Corinth tour1
Nikolas prepared a very special day in the Corinth countryside. From the drone images at the Corinth canal, arranging pastries for our hike and an olive oil tasting in a local family home, this will be a very special memory of our time in Greece. Nikolas was professional and his driving as well. He also gave us suggestions of local restaurants. We highly recommend this tour!
Nikolaos is a wonderful, friendly and responsive guide! He picked me up on time at my hotel in Athens in an impeccably clean non smoking van, and we had a great day exploring areas in the Peloponnese such as Corinth and Nafplio and the beautiful countryside. Nick is an excellent driver and drove me through a scenic area that I didn't even know existed in this area of Greece. rolling hills, olive trees, orange groves and vineyards. I highly recommend Nick and spending more than one day in this area
