Reiseverlauf
Fahrt durch Levadia und Arachova (berühmt für seine hellen mehrfarbigen Teppiche) kommen in Delphi an. Sie besuchen eine der wichtigsten archäologischen Stätten der griechischen Geschichte. Am Fuße des Berges Parnassos, innerhalb des Winkels, den die Zwillingsfelsen der Phaedriaden bilden, liegt das panhellenische Heiligtum von Delphi, das das berühmteste Orakel des antiken Griechenlands hatte. Delphi galt als Mittelpunkt der Welt. Der Mythologie zufolge trafen hier die beiden Adler aufeinander, die Zeus von den Enden des Universums ausgesandt hatte, um den Nabel der Welt zu finden. Das Heiligtum von Delphi, das sich in einer spektakulärsten Landschaft befindet, war über viele Jahrhunderte das kulturelle und religiöse Zentrum und Symbol der Einheit für die hellenische Welt und Sitz der Pythischen Spiele, der zweitwichtigsten Spiele in Griechenland nach den Olympischen Spielen, die alle vier Jahre stattfanden.
befindet sich an der archäologischen Stätte von Delphi. Zwischen dem sechsten und vierten Jahrhundert v. Chr. erlebte das Delphische Orakel, das als das vertrauenswürdigste galt, seinen Höhepunkt. Es wurde von der Pythia, der Priesterin, übergeben und von den Priestern des Apollon interpretiert. Städte, Herrscher und gewöhnliche Menschen konsultierten das Orakel, drückten ihre Dankbarkeit mit großen Gaben aus und verbreiteten seinen Ruhm in der ganzen Welt. Das Orakel existierte vermutlich seit Anbeginn der Zeit. Tatsächlich glaubte man, dass sie Ereignisse im Zusammenhang mit der Katastrophe von Deukalion, der Expedition des Argonauten und dem Trojanischen Krieg erfolgreich vorhergesagt hatte.
Besuch der archäologischen Stätte und des Museums, wo man neben anderen archäologischen Schätzen die einzigartige Bronzestatue des Streitwagenfahrers sehen kann, die Apollon von Polyzalos, dem Tyrannen von Gela, im Jahr 478 v. Chr. gewidmet wurde, als er das Wagenrennen bei den Pythischen Spielen gewann. Diese unvergleichliche Statue ist ein repräsentatives Beispiel für den „schweren“ attischen Stil, sicherlich das Werk eines bedeutenden Künstlers.

Great day out and our guide Joy was exceptional and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend. I probably would have loved a more local lunch than an hotel lunch.
Perfect tour! George and Anastasia were very kind, loving, welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend them and thank them for this wonderful experience!
First, decide carefully where you want to be picked up. From my neighborhood, Psyrri, it was an hour on bus before we even began the tour. Additionally it was very difficult to find food at that hour. I finally found some but the bus driver said, “No food on the bus.” Not a good start. Traffic was bad so I ended up being on the bus for 4 hours before reaching Delphi, instead of the expected 2 hours. Unbeknownst to me, the tour was bi-lingual (English/French). I didn’t sign up for that. In fact, I remember it specifically saying an English-speaking guide. It resulted in almost non-stop narration. First English and then rolling right in to French. I understand a bit of French, so it was very repetitive. Delphi was extremely hot, with dusty wind gusts. Part of the ruins were closed due to weather. I missed have of the tour because of the extreme heat. The museum was terrific, but the dual language narration was again a problem and didn’t leave much room for questions. The guide was warm and well-informed. The advertised “4-course meal” was abysmal. Food was not good. We were seated in an empty dining room at table for 4. One man had to eat by himself. The other 2 tables had people who had no common language. Awkward. The last stop at the ski-town was worthless. Most shops were closed. I was given incorrect directions to the view. I realize some of the problem were out of control of the tour group. But, for me, it as a thoroughly exhausting and disappointing day. Not how I wanted to spend my last day in Athens.
Dear Leslie, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the day did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that the tour operated according to the advertised itinerary, with the pickup arrangements, driving times, and meal details clearly stated in the tour information. Traffic conditions can unfortunately affect travel times, particularly during the busy summer season, and are beyond our control. Regarding food and drinks, these are not permitted on our coaches as we need to maintain a clean and comfortable environment for all passengers and avoid food smells during the journey. The bilingual English/French format is also indicated in the tour information when applicable. While we understand that the dual-language commentary may have felt repetitive, our guides provide the same information to both language groups. Delphi is an incredible archaeological site, but the exceptionally hot weather on the day of your visit, as well as the temporary closure of parts of the site due to weather conditions, were circumstances beyond our control. We are nevertheless pleased that you found our guide warm and well-informed and enjoyed the museum. We regret that the meal and final stop did not meet your expectations. We take all feedback seriously and will share your comments with our local partners. We hope that, despite the difficulties you experienced, you will retain some positive memories of your visit to Delphi and Greece. Kind regards Hara
Great time, enjoyed the trip.
Anastasia was lovely. Very informative, very friendly and really knew her history. It was also a great way to see life outside of Athens. The countryside/mountains of Greece was beautiful.
Very organized. A nice way to travel without worrying about getting there on our own. Wonderful guide. So informative. It was super hot but Greece in the summer always is! For sure recommend!
Our tour to the Temple of Apollo in Delphi was absolutely incredible, all thanks to our fantastic guide, Xenia. She was exceptionally knowledgeable, weaving history and Greek mythology together in a way that truly made the ancient ruins come alive. Beyond her impressive depth of expertise, Xenia was incredibly helpful, attentive, and welcoming throughout the entire day, ensuring everyone had a seamless and memorable experience. If you are planning a trip to Delphi, we highly recommend booking with Xenia—she is an absolute gem and made our visit unforgettable!
Pick up and drop off were on time. Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Tour was excellent, and it included lunch
This was a well organized trip. We got picked up on time and taken to another location where we waited for others to join us. We rode in a full size bus but there wasn’t many of us. Our guide gave us a lot of information on the way. We had a snack stop about 2/3 into the trip. The ride was nice. I didn’t realize that it was going to be in two languages so she would speak in English and then again in French. Then when we arrived to Delphi, she took us into the site. It was quite hot by then and speaking in two languages became a bit of an issue because it meant that every time she stopped to talk it took twice as long to deliver the information. We weren’t given enough time to see the whole site. We had to rush to the top to see the stadium then rush back to get to the museum in time for her tour of the museum. Every part of this was good, it was just the timing because of the double description of everything that was tiring. Then we opted out of the lunch and were left in town to find food. We found a cute place but had to rush for a pick up which they were 10 minutes late for. It would have been nice to have a little more time in town. Then we made a quick photo stop outside the city to get a picture- you don’t stop in town like the itinerary suggests. Then back to Athens with one more stop for a bathroom break.
This was an awesome experience, and we highly recommend this tour if you want to get out of Athens, and learn something new! The guide was great.
