Amazing experience of a lifetime! Private tour for two.

This was 510 miles and a 14 hour trip and we enjoyed every moment of it. We got to see a Greek sunrise on the mountains and learned so much history and the rich tales of Greece. Sebastian is a fount of information and kept us enthralled with his stories especially as we prepared to enter the attractions. Drivers cannot enter with us but he was amazing at explaining what we would see and what to look for along with a lot of background history. Sebastian was very flexible and took us to Meteora first to ensure we could enter St Stephan’s as we have limited mobility. Our hotel packed us a breakfast but we were not excited about what they packed so we asked to have lunch along the way which is normally not included as a stop. It is your tour so they will be flexible as needed. He was very helpful getting us in and out of the car as well. We did a private tour for two so we wouldn’t be rushed. It was a wonderful day that we will never forget thanks to the many photos he took of us and the many stops he made to ensure we had a great view of the beauty of Greece. If you are not comfortable with windy roads and fast speeds this may not be the trip for you. If you are then definitely book it and ask for Sebastian!

Special treat private tour

My partner & I enjoyed my trip to Meteora & Dephi with our driver & guide, Manos. He knows his history really well. He tried his best to make a long day fun & comfortable. Although it was 14 hrs, it did not seems that long. He even went out of his way at the end to show us the best spot to see the Acropolis lit up at night.

Great way to see a lot in a day, and to learn a lot from our driver

We weren't sure about booking a private tour and for such a long time and distance, but we are really glad we did. We felt we did as much as we wanted to at both Meteora and Delphi, but in just one day and without having to pack and repack and our luggage. The tour lasted about 13.75 hours, including lunch, but it truly didn't seem nearly that long. Our driver/guides, Manos. was a high point. He was very attentive to our needs and wants, and he adjusted the agenda accordingly. He took us to numerous great viewpoints that we would not have seen otherwise. He has a master's degree in history, and he provides lots of historical insights, and he provided both historical context and directions for how to go when we visited the Delphi archeological site and museum, the Varlaaam monastery, and the site of the famous battle of Thermopylae.. We had a lively conversation which helped the trip pass quickly. We never felt unsafe in the car, on the superhighway or the winding mountain roads. Overall, an A+ experience

Worth the time

This was a great last full day of our vacation. And it was a full day, pickup at 6am and drop off at 8pm. Wonderful to see the parts of Greece most tourist don’t get to. Delphi and Meteora were amazing. Our guide marselo was polite, informative, and easy to talk to. Would definitely recommend.

Day trip to Delphi and Meteora

We took this day trip to both Delphi and Meteora today. Dimos was our guide and it was the most amazing experience one could get. Dimos made our entire trip so comfortable, special and warm. He took us to the best of the places, he s very knowledgeable, an explorer, took us to the best food outlets, homemade pastries, cookies and the best of the food, all very thoughtfully planned. He was the best and we had a really great time. I highly recommend.

Incredible trip to Delphi and Meteora!

We had an absolutely wonderful day exploring Delphi and Meteora with Manos! From the beginning, Manos made the long journey comfortable, interesting, and genuinely entertaining. On our way to Delphi, he brought Greek history and mythology to life with stories about Apollo, Zeus, the Oracle of Delphi, the Greek goddesses, and the fascinating history of the places we were visiting. He also shared stories about Greek life and culture, which made the drive feel like part of the tour rather than simply transportation between destinations. Delphi was incredible, but the journey to Meteora became an adventure of its own. Manos took us safely through winding mountain roads, fog, and rain until we reached one of the most mystical and unforgettable places we have ever seen. The enormous rock formations emerging through the mist, with centuries-old monasteries perched high above, were simply breathtaking. Throughout the entire day, Manos was knowledgeable, engaging, thoughtful, and an excellent driver. His stories, humor, and warm personality added so much to an already extraordinary experience. Thank you, Manos, for making our day at Delphi and Meteora so memorable. We couldn't have asked for a better person to share this journey with. Highly recommended! Thank you, Manos!
