Traveler reviews
Delphi Tour
Both of our guides were very knowledgeable and attentive. Our lunch spot was also very enjoyable. Highly recommend.
Delphi is breathtaking...
Delphi is breathtaking and absolutely worth going to. However, the bus tour guide and pace of the tour made the day a drag. After only being on the bus for 40 minutes we had our first stop at a truck stop for 30 minutes while the guide had a huge sandwich and smoked a cigarette. That was unnecessary. Another stop at Arachova was beautiful, but by the time we got to Delphi, waited around for at least another 20 minutes, went through the museum, and got to the main attraction of the archeological site, the day felt like a let down. We only had brief time at the archeological site before stopping again for a lengthy late lunch, which was nice but seemed an unnecessary use of time. The day just felt like a lot of filler for a disappointingly short time at the main attraction.
Delphi from Athens
I enjoyed my time doing this tour. Firstly, Yota was an amazing guide. Bubbly courteous friendly and helpful. She seems to know a lot and truly enjoy what she is doing. The pick up was a breeze, super comfortable in a small well air conditioned luxury van/minibus. They were even earlier than the time they said they will pick me up. The driver drove safely and smoothly. We didn’t have any trouble along the way. Another guide met us at the museum. They lend us wireless earphone ti hear the guide as she walked us and explained important aspects in the museum and later at the Delphi complex. After that we were picked up by our private minibus and went to have lunch at this taverna with overlooking views in Delphi town. The food was great and priced fairly.
Delphi is a must see
Fantastic trip to the sacred ruins in Delphi is a bit more relaxed town some of the one day trips. Great small group today and fantastic place to share a group lunch and meet some other like solo travelers. Love the ruins and this might be my all time favorite.
