“We were greeted by the lovely SiSi guide who was excellent. She spoke in English very well. The large mini bus was in great condition and the driver drove us safely. The highlight was the swim in the water by the fountain at Mount Olympus. The water was just right. Lovely pictures to treasure. Dion was a lovely calm and relaxing. Look out for the dragonflies. This trip was great value for money. Also we went to a village for lunch which was fantastic. Well done SiSi. You were a great guide.”

3.Bus Trip to Dion & Mt Olympus National Park

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 256 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $59

Travel from Thessaloniki to Agia Kori Waterfall, Dion Archaeological Park, the Olympus Information Center, and Litochoro. An English-speaking historian-archeologist leads the day, with bus transport, Wi-Fi, and free time for lunch. The trail is accessible but includes rough ground and steep steps.

“It was an average excursion; you mostly pay for the bus ride. We did a hike and sat at a nice restaurant towards the end where we enjoyed a meal. A bit more time would have been appreciated there as it was a lovely little town. Our guide was pleasant but inexperienced. We missed the high energy of a tour guide who grabs the attention of his or her group. All in all a decent tour but not unmissable.”
