Very precise and fast communication no matter what channel have been used (e-mail, WhatsApp). Easy to postpone a trip if necessary. Small group of participants. Nice, clean buss. Enjoyable and unobtrusive guide. Not all of sites where available, but we spent a great time. The mountain views are spectacular

Trip to the Home of the Gods!

Lovely day trip from Thessaloniki for those who want to see Mount Olympus but may not be in shape for a hiking adventure. Chock full of mythology and the brief nature excursion was perfect! We were unable to see the summit due to foggy weather conditions but our guide and driver both handled the weather with grace. We ran into a minor issue with the major mosaic feature at the Dion Museum being closed for the season, but that's not an unusual occurrence for the off season, and not a function of any error on the tour company's part. Awareness of this before the tour in the future will help mitigate disappointment by not talking it up ahead of time!

Our driver and guide,...

Our driver and guide, Lazaros, was an a guide who a traveller could not have asked more of. Not only is he knowledgeable about the history of Greece, and Greek culture/philosophy, he also has a wealth of personal experience to share. A genuinely interestingamd down-to-earth person. As for the trip, Lazaros was always taking care of every one of us depending on our needs. We were shown amazing spots at the mountain and he never hesitated to answer any questions. It's a fantastic trip in itself, but if you happen to have Lazaros as your guide, you've won the lottery!
