“Très bonne journée”
Très bonne journée à Dion Et au mont Olympe. Nous étions un petit groupe malgré la haute saison, ce qui était très agréable pour profiter des explications de la guide. Je recommande fortement.
Amazing day learning about Olympus and Dion
Great day spent learning about the ancient town of Dion and Mount Olympus. Our guide, Dimitra, shared so many interesting facts and stories with us. A highly memorable day!
The guide was very knowledgeable. The walk in Mount Olympus was dramatic followed by a nice lunch in the village.
Patty was a great guide! Very knowledgeable and friendly. We got plenty of Greek mythology lessons too! The shuttle bus was comfortable and the driver Kristoff was great! All of the places you stop on the tour are beautiful! I highly recommend this tour.
Beautiful day with this trip, going to the Mount Olympus. The waterfall is amazing! The museums are really interesting.
Greek and Roman History, Language and Nature
The only surprise on this trip was that we called and were told where the pickup point was and the time 8:30. We went early and saw a van at the spot. We assumed it was another trip but I asked. They were waiting for us! at 8 am! This was an excellent trip with a guide who had studied archeology for 3 years to qualify as a professional guide to classical Greek history and mythology. . A rainy day was predicted but the weather was spectacular. We were told that even in the summer only 3 buses daily come to Dion (where the archeological ruins of the sanctuaries to the Olympian gods have been uncovered and the artifacts are in its museum) but the breathtaking drive 900 meters up toward the peaks of Mt Olympus (beyond that you have to hike) was incredible. This park and protected spiritual and forested park is home to birds and flowers. Snow covers the top peaks which are often hidden in clouds. it was far more than we expected. A wonderful day. Our group included a couple from Argentina/Israel, from southern Germany, from Finland and from Belgium. Don't miss it
“Another good day” Very interesting for anyone who enjoys learning about the history and archaeology of the place they are visiting. Also Mount Olympus I know is very impressive, but unfortunately the rain came that morning, so couldn't see the peak due to clouds. But still an enjoyable day.
