Great tour of Delphi

Our one-day tour to Delphi was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and thoughtfully executed. The journey from Athens was comfortable, with beautiful views along the way and informative commentary by our guide Rose that set the stage for what we were about to see. The highlight, of course, was exploring the archaeological site of Delphi. Walking among the ruins of the Temple of Apollo and standing in the shadow of the ancient theater was a surreal experience. Our guide Rose was fantastic – knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about Greek history and mythology. They brought the stories of Delphi to life and made the site even more meaningful. The Delphi Museum was equally impressive. The guide walked us through the key exhibits, including the famous Charioteer of Delphi, and explained their historical and cultural context in a way that was both accessible and fascinating.

Beware. The tour driver called us 35 minutes before the designated meeting time chastising us for not being at the meeting point. There was a partial language barrier. We requested to be picked up at the location in time designated on the reservation. we arrived at the designated meeting point and time and the driver was not there. We called the number from caller ID. Multiple times. No answer. Outgoing message left a garbled phone number to contact the driver. We were never able to contact the driver. Overall, we were very disappointed in our missed opportunity to see Delphi. And we were surprised and saddened by the unprofessional behavior of the driver. Of course, it’s no small matter to lose the reservation fee which we had already paid. And disappointed in viator not resolving the issue. Caution booking this event and using Viator

Our guide was Yiatta who was great, informative without overloading you with information and very funny. Be prepared for a long bus ride 2.5 hrs - 3 hrs one way (282 km and dealing with Athens traffic). I enjoyed the historical site and museum. It is not for everyone so do your own research on what the historical site looks like. Suggestions. I would skip the lunch (when booking) and ask to be dropped off at the town to look around and buy something on the go. On the way there is a chance to buy snacks as lunch will be around 14:00 pm - 14:30 pm and take a quick rest break. Bring you own snacks e.g. from a supermarket and buy coffee / water if you need the caffeine hit. Read the details of the tour to ensure you understand what is included and how long you will be at the site / museum.

This was a great trip. Demi taught us a lot about Greek culture, the Greek Gods and how it all tied to the stories of Delphi. The temple and museum are just stunning. The roan of Arachova is so beautiful. If you only have one day for this area, this is the trip for you. Stunning views from the bus. It is a long trip in the bus. Take the time to stretch your legs at each stop and pack a hat, water and plenty of sunscreen. Thank you! And happy retirement Georgios!
