The visit to DElos was very interesting thanks to our guide Anastasia, who explained in great detail the history and the most important points of the archaeological area. His knowledge and passion really made a difference. For her, 5 stars without a doubt! However, the organization POR the agency left much to be desired. Departure was delayed by an hour and during that time we had to wait in the sun, without any clear information or consideration POR the staff. POR, I only give the agency 3 stars. I recommend the site and the guide, but the logistics should be much improved.

The overall experience was great! The guide was wonderful and informative. I wish I could remember her name. Directions to get there were very vague. We were told to meet at the Sea bus ticket office 45 mins before tour. Our tour was 9:20. We were there at 8:30 and the people at the sea bus ticket office were a little unorganized. We finally got on the boat to go over to where we are supposed to pick up the boat to Delos. We went to the ticket window and we’re told that it doesn’t open till 10 o’clock. I thought our tour was at 9:20 lots of waiting around that morning very unorganized. Disney cruise ship offers a free shuttle over that would’ve saved a lot of time if we were told that by viator. Also, were told we had to pay cash for the museum. We could not go on the tour if we didn’t. That was sprung on us at the last minute. We did not even go into the museum.

We had a gorgeous boat ride over to Delos and a well organized tour. The tour guide was one of the archeologists and was AMAZING! She knew every inch of the island and had tons of stories that kept my 11yo entertained. Great experience!

The site was very good and there was a lot of good history and information. The tour was easy to get to and I had no problems in that regard. They did have us get there over an hour early and stand in the heat waiting for the ferry to come pick us up. Also our group was way too big and hard to get around the site. Other people had booked our tour and they had smaller groups but everyone seemed to be slotted into our group. It was terrible to have such a large group.
