A beautiful day amongst the olive trees learning and tasting the Olive Oil was most fabulous things I did in Greece. Would recommend to all!!!!

Olive grove was worth a visit

The olive grove tour was great! Marianne, the owner was wonderful. We found the tour interesting and educational! Do not use Viator though, go directly to Greeking.me. Viator overcharged me and took no accountability for this. We did only olive tour, no wine tasting- again Viator has this labeled wrong and charged for this incorrectly!

Fabulous tour!

The tour was so much fun! The guide and driver were great, offering info along the drive. The olive oil tasting was so interesting and my kiddos (ages 14 and 11) even enjoyed it. The communication during planning was also fantastic. I highly recommend Greeking Me.

Great olive oils and great food. Could have been a little less time.

It was a little long for us as we were very jet lagged. It was very hot outside as we we were walking around. It was very informative and the food was great.

5 Stars For a Great Experience

This was a wonderful experience! It was a lovely “farm” with olive trees, vegetable plants, flowers, chickens, and more. The owner, Melina, greeted us at the gate with a smile and gave us a tour. We learned a great deal about the making of Olive oil from the harvest to the cold-press. Then we had a wonderful lunch in her lovely outdoor patio, which all came from her garden. She was so personable and friendly! One of our favorite Athens experiences that we will treasure always.

Operator response

Ana, the owner, was...

Ana, the owner, was fabulous. We learned so much about the whole olive oil process and how the collection affects the tastes. We ended up purchasing quite a bit of her prosecutes because we enjoyed them so much. Recommend to anyone who enjoys consuming olive oil. The dinner that accompanied the tasting, made with her own grown herbs and vegetables was just as fabulous.

Operator response

Hello David, we are elated that you enjoyed your experience with us, learned a lot about olive oil, and savored the olive oil tasting and the lunch. Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again soon!

Fresh Food and Lesson in Olive Oil Tasting

Ana who is also the owner was spectacular. So knowledgeable and engaging. We learned so many things that we had no idea before this tour. The lunch that was served was so fresh and delicious that we took doggy bags back to our hotel room. This is a must do when in Athens!!! Janis B

Worthwhile

I genuinely enjoyed the tour. It was indeed everything and more. I learned so much about the food culture in Greece and the farming of olives. I understand and appreciate your efforts to popularize agrotourism, and I look forward to hearing about more successes in the future. It was amazing. I would recommend it to others.

Awesome Learning Experience!!!

This was one of my most favorite experiences while in Greece! To learn about olives, the process of making into olive oil and then tasting the different types was wonderful. The bonus was the restaurant food (farm to fork) was one of the best meals I had in Greece! You would not be wasting your time or money with this tour!

Tiptoeing through the olive grove

This tour was one of the absolute highlights of our trip. We were looking for something off the beaten path and this was more than we could have wished for. We had a great time learning about olive oil and its production. This gem was sustainable farming in action which was amazing to see. Everyone was so kind and the olive oil tasting was delightful. I would highly recommend this tour.
