Delphi Guided Small Group Day Tour fra Athen

Expensive for what you get. The tour guide ran us through the museum and archeological site rather quickly. Would have desired more time at both.

So happy we did this tour! It was nice to see the countryside of Greece away from Athens. The mountain scenery was amazing! The ruins and the museum were also wonderful! It was a long day- it takes a full day to do this tour and we were tired at the end, but felt it was well worth it for the adventure of the day! Our driver Soterious was excellent over very challenging terrain and our tour guide Lilly helped orient us with good information in advance of arriving the site and looked after lunch arrangements which were very enjoyable. We had a different guide at the museum and on site for site specific information and he really went in depth and gave the exhibits meaning. It was a great day and we would recommend it!

The trip itself is pretty compressed given that Delphi is 2.5 hours from Athens. It includes nice highlights like visiting Arachova and lunch at a local Greek restaurant. We had a guide with us on the bus and a separate private tour guide through the museum and ruins, which was a nice combination. Where things got a smidge snug was with the time aloted to wandering. We only ended up with about 25 minutes for this, which was hopelessly short. This may have had some to do with a snafu with our particular tour, but for us it meant we really had to hustle to see much on our own. The ruins themselves are spectacular, and our tour guides were both amazing. I'd think that for those looking for a more immersive experience, consider the two day tour or even a rental car. For folks looking to get a quick taste of what Delphi is all about, which is most folks, then this is a great option.

Make sure you bring sturdy shoes as there is a lot of step climbing involved. The views are worth it though.! Vivian and Perocles may for a very good guide and drive combination. Vivian chose the lunch spot in Delphi and got us a special table right by the window. We especially enjoyed a small group which made for a more personal experience. Amazing journey through the Greek countryside and well worth the time and effort.

long ride from Athens but worth it. along the way there are great views of this part of Greece outside Athens. the mountains are especially beautiful. Delphi is truly impressive with an awesome display of artifacts. the trip guide was wonderful and the museum guide was extremely knowledgeable and engaging

Guide Lilly excellent. Van was too tight. We bought a small group tour, but there were 19 people on board.

Both of our guides were very knowledgeable and attentive. Our lunch spot was also very enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Delphi is breathtaking and absolutely worth going to. However, the bus tour guide and pace of the tour made the day a drag. After only being on the bus for 40 minutes we had our first stop at a truck stop for 30 minutes while the guide had a huge sandwich and smoked a cigarette. That was unnecessary. Another stop at Arachova was beautiful, but by the time we got to Delphi, waited around for at least another 20 minutes, went through the museum, and got to the main attraction of the archeological site, the day felt like a let down. We only had brief time at the archeological site before stopping again for a lengthy late lunch, which was nice but seemed an unnecessary use of time. The day just felt like a lot of filler for a disappointingly short time at the main attraction.

I enjoyed my time doing this tour. Firstly, Yota was an amazing guide. Bubbly courteous friendly and helpful. She seems to know a lot and truly enjoy what she is doing. The pick up was a breeze, super comfortable in a small well air conditioned luxury van/minibus. They were even earlier than the time they said they will pick me up. The driver drove safely and smoothly. We didn’t have any trouble along the way. Another guide met us at the museum. They lend us wireless earphone ti hear the guide as she walked us and explained important aspects in the museum and later at the Delphi complex. After that we were picked up by our private minibus and went to have lunch at this taverna with overlooking views in Delphi town. The food was great and priced fairly.

+4

Fantastic trip to the sacred ruins in Delphi is a bit more relaxed town some of the one day trips. Great small group today and fantastic place to share a group lunch and meet some other like solo travelers. Love the ruins and this might be my all time favorite.
