DELPHI/METEORA (Oct 3rd & 4th)
Bus to Delphi: (5/5)
Delphi Site: (4/5)
Delphi Tour Guide: (5/5)
Had to change buses & guide
Bus to Meteora (2.5/5) - tight no room and crowded
Meteora Guide (4.5/5)
Bus Driver (4.5/5) a bit grumpy
Meteora Monasteries (5/5)
Hotel Meteora AMILIA:
Location: (0/5) outside town
Rooms: (2.5) Need renovating
Buffet: (1/5) massive amounts of bus tours & people. Food poor quality. Mayhem dinner & breakfast service. Unpleasant!
* The reason we took this tour was to stay in Meteora. Arrived at 7:00 pm to find our expensive upgrade was in a fairly run-down hotel 7km out of town. With dinner at 8:00 we didn’t go into town. A waste of our time for this tour. We would have done it on our own. BEWARE upgrade just means more money, not necessarily better quality or location. The cheaper priced hotel was perfect plus had meal service with normal amounts of people. The non upgraded guests loved it.
* Too many stops at extremely busy rip-off rest stops. Guides/drivers get freebies and places like Icon stop Meteora - company gets kickbacks on souvenirs.
MYCENAE & NAFPHLIO (Oct 6th) with lunch:
Bus: (3.5/5) not too crowded but really uncomfortable seats
Guide: (2.5/5) lovely & knowledgeable but too much info, voice is monotone plus gave meaningless info on unrelated topics like vegetation.
*Plus (most importantly) did not give any instructions on Canal only bathroom stop and everyone missed seeing it.
Bus Driver (same guy as previous tour): (5/5) helpful to guide and managed detour well.
Canal: (0/5) nobody saw it!
Mycenae Site (3/5) just stones no buildings.
Tomb: (4.5/5)
Museum (3.5) replicas
Vox speaker (5/5) great plus just 1 ear piece.
Lunch: (5/5). Excellent
Conclusion for both:
Too many stops at rip-off rest stops. Guides/drivers get freebies and places like Icon stop Meteora - company gets kickbacks.

We loved it!
Our 2-day visit was remarkable. Joy, our guide, was FANTASTIC! The best one we had in our 3 weeks spent in Greece. She is funny, interesting, knows the places, the sites, and their history deeply, but also respects our moments to take a little rest. Also, the sites visited were remarkable and the hotel (Amalia), although dated, was perfect. The quality of the place is evident.

Small group tour to Delphi and Meteora
They handle all the logistics and driving. The attractions are 1.5 hour at Delphi (no Delphi museum), 15 minutes at Leonidas’ monument and about 3 hours in three monasteries in meteora. The rest of the time is driving/eating. The three monasteries we visited did not require climbing up (two were drive up and one was descending stairs in and out and the bus picked us up at the bottom)
Note that they stay at their network hotel (Amalia) which is not actually in kalabaka.

In the clouds
Amazing place to see. It is a world class site. I would do some research before going as the history is fascinating. Be aware of heights and have good walking shoes.
