Wonderful day trip to beautiful Delphi. Petros (Travolta!) our driver was a great driver, very knowledgable and so friendly. We had a great day. Bonus to see additional sights like the monastery d’Osios Loukas and a wonderful lunch with a great view. 5 star trip! Thanks

We had a wonderful day with Petros. He was informative and entertaining at the same time. We saw the main sites of Corinth but also a few off the beaten path gems. A must do tour if you are on a cruise stop in Athens and have seen the sights in town and are looking to see something new. We were originally scheduled to go to Delphi but discovered that it would take most of the day to drive there and back. If you are on a cruise stop, be careful what you book. Not all tours provide enough information in their booking description.
Great trip and great driver!

I think the most important thing we did was add the local English speaking guide to join us on site. She was very knowledgeable, local and understandable. It really made the day enjoyable and educational.

Terry was a fabulous and knowledgeable guide! He picked us up at our hotel, whisked us out of the city, regaling us with stories of Greek mythology and ancient history. We stopped at a 1500 year old monastery, ate lunch at a family owned restaurant and then spent the rest of our day touring the ruins of Delphi. My daughter and I enjoyed the drive out into the countryside and appreciated Terry’s candor and command of Greek history. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Amazing history, wonderful tour and guide

It was a dream tour through the history - from Athens to Arachova near the famous mount Parnassos, then Delfi and its temples and finally Osios Loukas monastery. The top of the day was a lunch in Delfi with a breathtaking view to the mountains and excellent local food. Our driver Yiannis told us a lot of stories about history of Greece and about mythology. What a wonderful day!
Memorable day!

From the moment our driver, Mario, picked us up at our hotel in the morning until he returned us safely in the evening, we were comfortable, informed and entertained. We learned as much from Mario as we did from the sites on the tour ... about Greek culture, history, education, economics, family traditions and more. My only regret is that we didn’t get a photo of Mario, who was expecting the birth of his first child this winter. We wish him well! A wonderful day. Highly recommend.

I cant spell or pronounce our Greek drivers’ name, but he said it is “Will or William” in English. He was wonderful!! We couldn’t have asked for a more professional or courteous expert....thankful for the experience we were able to share with our friends! Communication was easy, request were obliged and we never felt rushed. Lunch was incredible. This was more than a five star experience. Thanks for exceeding our expectations!
