Having own bus is great, but having a local guide that is very knowledgeable about the area and it's resources is phenomenal. Won't steer you wrong and takes care of the details to make the visit as enjoyable as possible

The perfect day in and around Olympia. My husband has walking disabilities and uses a wheelchair or mobility scooter, so he could not walk around the Olympic site, but was able to enjoy the museum, the olive farm and honey farm with his wheelchair. The tour of Olympia would have been a little easier for all in our group if we: 1. had had a personal guide or earphones. We had a book that showed us a map of the site, but none of the exhibits were numbered so it was pretty hard to figure our where we were. 2. Tour says 'wine tour', we had a few people who do not drink alcohol so they did not go on this part of the tour, but it turned out it was not a 'wine tour' it was an 'olive farm'. These people would have been able to enjoy that part of the day too if it was advertised correctly. 3. The 'honey farm' was really nice, going to a small, private family home business. They welcomed us as friends into to their home/business.

We were a party of 11 visiting Olympia for the day. Nancy was our guide and she was the absolute best! She not only was she so kind she was knowledgeable helpful and funny! She translated for one of our party when we had a bank issue. She was flexible with the schedule so we could have our perfect day. She helped us shop. She loaned my daughter her jacket when she got cold. And she so graciously listened to my mom who chatted her ear off the whole time! Our day in Olympia was amazing and we can't wait to come back. 10/10 would recommend!
