We give 5 stars to our guide and 4 stars to the tour. The AC in the van was a god send (because it's late June and very hot right now) and our tour guide was so kind and willing to answer any and all questions. He was also very knowledgeable about the history of the locations on our tour. Some small downsides, nothing to pass up the tour for, but things to note. There is a lot of time in the van to get out to the distant locations, if you need a restroom you have to speak up or wait until arriving at the locations. The first stop is Arachova and we wish there were more time that little town. We had time to grab a coffee and look around for about 15 minutes, but we wanted to see more. The sights were wonderful and the lunch in Delphi was delicious. We really enjoyed the ruins and museum in Thermopylae. The drive up the caves was an exciting off road up hill drive, but our tour guide was an expert! All in all, it was a great day and the money spent was well worth it. (Do note, the cost of the trip doesn't include tickets to Thermopylae museum and ruins, nor does it cover lunch or coffee. Those are extras and the tour company does share that upfront.)
Traveling to the Delphi, Corycian Cave and the setting of the 300 battle is a must when visiting Athens. Our guide was great; helpful and informative. Our lunch was one of the best we’ve had in the regions. Highly recommended.
This is a pretty long excursion, but totally worth the trip outside of the city. Costa, our guide and driver was truly outstanding. He was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited and made the day both informative and pleasant.
A very long day with lots of driving. Lots of steep climbing with loose gravel paths. Superb guide Despina, very good driver. Enjoyed the trip despite a fall on loose rocks.
Excellent tour, guide and experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared lots of history with us. The tour was a great mix of guided and free roam time. The drive to and from the sites was incredibly beautiful and the lunch was delicious. Wear good shoes with grip, this is not the tour for cutesy sandals.
*if you get car/motion sickness take your meds before and with you on this trip!* This was a great day to spend leaving the city behind and see the country and the mountains and some history too. It was just beautiful everywhere you look. I loved that there were multiple stops to stretch out legs and D was an excellent guide, always making sure we had bathroom breaks, bringing drinks for us, and communicating next steps. She also knew a lot of history and good stories and picked the most beautiful place for lunch. I usually get very motion sick with switchbacks on mountain driving but it really helped to have a small group so I could see out the windows and I took some Meclizine before and halfway through the trip.
It really has everything you could be looking for in terms of history. Despoina was an amazing guide and provided a lot information on our trip. She also educated us about so many other things about Greek history and culture. Delphi was amazing to see all the ruins and the museum, but just know it will be unguided so you go at your own pace and interests. Definitely helps to do some extra research on what you’re looking at beforehand. The journey to the caves is a little rough in the car but definitely worth it. Stopping and seeing the battle of Thermopylae was a huge interest of mine, and so glad I got to see the area with my own eyes. Despoina also did a great job helping us visualize the battle because most of the land has changed since the battle.
This tour was a once in a lifetime experience. It does require a lot of walking and steps. They threw in little extra things along the way. Felt like a vip for sure! Our tour guide, Costas, was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and professional.
For me the worth of this tour is Delphi, honestly the rest is not worth the time in the car ( traveling). Our guide was profesional but did not put an extra effort to explain.
Highly recommend booking this. Knowledgeable tour guide and very friendly. One of the highlights of the trip.
