Androusa | 3 hours | Admission Ticket Free

A fun and informative tour about olive oil that starts with a relaxing “olivewalk” inside the 13th century castle of Androusa overlooking the Messinian olive valley. The tour continues with a visit to the traditional and the modern olive oil Mill and ends with an olive oil tasting workshop by a certified olive oil taster, accompanied with traditional olive oil based dishes.

Ancient Messini | 2 hours | Admission Ticket Not Included

Best known for the ruins of the large classical city-state of Ancient Messene, the site dates back in the Bronze Age. The city was originally known as Ithome, built and lived by Achaean Greeks, but later it came under the hegemony of the military state of Sparta which resulted in a long struggle.
