Excursão privada de 2 dias em Delphi Meteora e Termópilas

We took this tour with three kids, in early October, and had a wonderful, worry free, time. The Temple of Apollo and the museum beside it were good, and the view of the valley was great. We were there between tour busses, I guess, because plenty of people were already there, but a flood of people arrived as we were leaving. Grande Meteora was beautiful and, as you would guess, crowded, but that was fine. There were a lot of stairs, which I supposeI should have expected, but it took me by surprise. We saw a smaller nunnery, as well, called Holy Monastery Rousanos / St. Barbara. It had fewer people, fewer stairs, and was even more beautiful. A very pleasant experience. The hotel was good. Their breakfast was okay. Peter, the tour guide, was exceptional. Knowledgeable, talkative, easy going, flexible, and professional. All his advice was good. He shared a lot of information, not only about the sites, but about life in Greece and Greek perspectives on issues. He wasn't a licensed tour guide, but he should be; we felt like we learned alot. Every place he took us to eat was fantastic and felt authentic, like it wasn't just catering to tourist. Best of all, he made the whole experience relaxing, stress free, and we had fun.

The trip is amazing with all the sites with amazing view and hotel accommodations. Our driver/guide Petros is extremely competence and knowledgeable. He is also very accommodating to our request with flexible rundown of our trip itinerary. We were able to go around and between sites to avoid the most crowded time of the day, and great recommendations to restaurants. Overall we are all very satisfied with the trip and Petros, 5 stars rating and highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of being guided by Vasilis on our recent tour, and his knowledge, passion, and professionalism truly made the experience unforgettable. His deep understanding of the area, combined with his enthusiasm, brought every site to life. He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and informed throughout the journey. Highly recommend his services!

We created amazing memories on our two-day visit to Delphi, Meteora, and Thermopylae. Our wonderful driver Petros provided thoughtful background information on our destinations and understanding of Greek history and modern culture. Petros also provided helpful suggestions about amounts of time to spend at our destinations, but he was flexible in letting us expand or contract stops in accordance with our interests. He also did a great job selecting our restaurants en route and our wonderful hotel in Kalabaka. As to the destinations, they fulfilled our high expectations. It was amazing to experience the site of Delphi where so many ancient leaders had sought the guidance of the oracle, and also to see the stone base which held the tripod chair of the oracle and the vent of the intoxicating gases. The monasteries and nunnery of Meteora were visually stunning and captivating to explore during our trip. Returning toward Athens we stopped at the Thermopylae memorials to the Spartans and other heroes - the statue of King Leonitus, the statue honoring heroes from non-Spartan tribes, and the monument marking the location of final sacrifice in defiance of King Xerxes's Persian invasion. My family found this to be a very worthwhile tour, and our experience with guide Petros was nothing short of sensational - thank you!

All interactions with David and Emma of WarmPenquin were professional with quick responses to questions. Our guide/driver Petro was phenomenal! He was knowledgeable, friendly, very helpful with recommendations for restaurants and had a great sense of humor. He offered to take us up to Meteora the evening before the tour to see the sunset. Petro recommended the monasteries we should visit and they were wonderful. The hotel we stayed in was comfortable, clean and charming. The restaurants for lunch were delicious with great service. Our guide at Delphi was also great. She was professional, knowledgeable, and managed the pace very well with 6 adults asking questions and touring the site and museum. All in all, it was a great trip with exceptional guides! Thank you Warm Penquin.

We had an absolutely amazing 2 days touring Greece with Petros! It was so relaxing to be able to explore the sites on our own without having to worry about navigation and time tables. Petros was excellent company and provided lots of helpful information and background for our sightseeing. We appreciated his perspective and his wonderful recommendations. He also sent us recipes to try at home! We had delicious meals at the restaurants he arranged for us and the platinum package accommodations near Meteora were very charming and unique. We had lunch by the sea before heading back to Athens. Thank you Petros for a memorable tour!!

We started our trip with this itinerary and it was amazing. The best part was our guide Petros. He just made it all the more special. He is so knowledgeable, kind and engaging. Gave us great insights to all the places we went to and gave us extra tidbits on great spots. Took so much care in making sure were happy, were able to get vegetarian options at all spots we ate, just made the whole experience all the more enjoyable.

This is one of the best tours we ever have been taken. We also took the half day tour in Atenas. Our guide/driver, Petros was amazing! He has a huge knowledge about Greece history and You can see how he really enjoys his job and loves his country. Our guide for the Acropolis was excellent!! We really enjoyed al the visit by her side.

Wonderful experience! Excellent service, our driver Petros was incredible, he told us all the information about the places we went, all the history and stories. He really knows about the greek history! He recommended us a lot of beautiful places to eat. The hotel for the night was amazing. We loved the archeological sites, the food, the service and everything on this tour. We highly recommend the experience!

Warmpenguin is top-notch. We searched for private tour that would allow us the best photography and cultural options and be easy to accomplish with a family of four. Warmpenguin was an excellent choice that we booked after reading reviews for all their tours and visiting their website. (Note that the price listed does not double with each member as other tour do, and for four there is plenty of space in the vehicle.) They are very responsive to questions and worked with us to get optimal sunset viewing at Meteora, our priority. If you are nervous in cars or have a family, please ask for Elias. He is an amazing person, so considerate, and without a doubt a professional driver. He has more than eight years experience with this company I believe and was ALWAYS safe and smooth in the driving. Since he is a family man himself, he understood when we needed to stop for snacks, an extra bathroom break, and even a pharmacy run. We laughed a lot together, and since he has done this tour many times, he knew how to make it "easy" such as the perk of dropping us off at an entrance and picking us up at an exit to save uphill walking in the heat. He also knows all the photo spots and was willing to take us to multiple places to get differing views as the sun changed. Since the roads are narrow, it is amazing to have a private driver who can edge into and out of the turnouts. I highly recommend him and hope he becomes your friend too. Delphi is a must see, and Varlaam was our favorite in Meteora. For those of you wondering about a group tour vs. a private tour, I can tell you that we would arrive at places before a crowd and could leave as wanted. This meant some sites we stopped quickly and moved on rather than having to wait for other tour members to load up or for a guide to buy and distribute tickets. At sunset we arrived an hour earlier (best time with the karst landscape) and stayed after the crowds left to get the orange glow. Perfect pacing, flexibility, and no bus schedules to worry about. I can't imagine not getting a chance to feel the calm serenity of this sacred area. For Delphi we hired a Warmpenguin guide for the fabulous museum who also kept us in the shade at the ruins. We loved all the chosen restaurants, and the owners gave us personal attention. Private drivers pick you up right outside your lodging, wait with the car during museum and site visits, and have their own meals separately at restaurants while also ensuring you never have to worry about tickets, bills, parking, tour guides, waters, proper air conditioning in the car, hotels, etc. All that means no organizing fatigue and better family harmony. I recommend booking an early departure to avoid traffic and have a chance to see the sunset, carrying day packs so your suitcases can remain in the back untouched, and using the trip as a way to transfer hotels if you need to save on that hassle. The distance between cities and even between monasteries in Meteora is farther than it looks on maps and their opening times vary so plan ahead for drive times if you have a particular goal in mind. Then know that you can trust Warmpenguin to get you there safely and with expertise.
