Recommended if you like your independence

Charles_H, Jan 2025

This was the perfect tour for me. I hate tours when a guide lectures for an hour while you stand there not moving...this tour isn't like that at all. The guide is there more to make sure you get to the correct place and can of course answer questions, but you receive a smart phone for the tour so that you can go at your own pace. The price was great, and I liked having free time in a nearby town for lunch. The only thing that could've been better was some confusion at the pick-up point. There was no sign or anyone making announcements. I only found the guide/bus when another woman happened to ask a random bus driver if he knew anything about our tour and he pointed us to the correct place.

Tells you that you will...

Christina_G, Dec 2024

Tells you that you will do a stop in Delphi, however, the guide then told us that Delphi is 'full' and they had very conveniently booked us tables at a restaurant on the way back - it's a tourist trap where guides get food for free, but you really have no choice but to go as there is nothing else close by. We skipped Delphi altogether, no explanation given other than it's holiday season - yeah, that's why we're also here? Delphi Oracle was closed due to fallen rocks. Guide didn't have enough VR devices (32 for 52 people), so we had to share and gave up on that a few minutes in. Overall very mediocore experience, not as advertised, but semi cheap for what you do get. Definitely would not book again.

Ok tour but Delphi is worth the visit

Joe_K, Dec 2024

Delphi was definitely worth visiting. The road was closed so we're weren't able to see the Temple of Apollo, which was disappointing. The self guiding cellphone tour did not function well and the sound on our devices was unreliable. Our tour guide was OK but did not offer a lot of information without being asked. Time was crunched at times because we had to take a longer route because of the road closure.

Vasilis is the best!!!

Bahri_D, Dec 2024

It was a great experience for me. We couldn’t visit the village on the list because of some road problem I guess but my priority was Delphi so I was happy at the end. But big applause goes to Vasilis. He was very nice, gentle, helpful, funny and always smiling young man! He is doing great job! Consider yourself lucky if you have him!

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, and I hope your next adventure is just as memorable!

A rainy day trip

Ellamae_W, Nov 2024

This was a very well organised trip into Delphi. We went on a rainy day but the atmosphere once there was very good. The climb to the top ruins was slippery in the rain though, but manageable. Our group was quite small and we had plenty of room on the coach, spacious coach and good temperature. Our guide was Thanos, he was very sweet and helpful and gave us clear instructions and information throughout the coach trip. I liked that we were left to explore independently once at the site. We had an hour afterwards in the town to get some food. It was off-season in November so most shops were closed but was nice to stretch legs before the drive back. Not guaranteed to be back on time. Athens traffic at around 6pm is very busy (not the tours fault at all, part of being in a city) but worth noting, we got back at about 19:20.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

We're so glad to hear you had a great experience in Delphi despite the rainy weather. It's wonderful to know that Thanos made the trip enjoyable with his helpfulness and clear information. We understand that Athens traffic can sometimes be a challenge, but we’re glad you made it back safely!

Great value for those who don't mind self-exploring sites

Miwa_H, Nov 2024

(A few months late to review) we had a great time. This tour doesn't come with a full guide at every location, but overall a great value for people who want easy transportation, and don't mind self-exploring sites. GPS was somewhat inaccurate to locate the pick up spot pin-cushioned on the map for Omonias- Hondos Center, but we quickly found fellow travelers to ease our nerves, and someone from the tour showed up 5min before meet up time. Smooth ride to Delphi, we felt we had plenty of time both at the Delphi archeological site and the museum (though it was so hot on that day we didn't complete the full hike up.). The iPad/remote controller worked well for a while but once it got reset it was really hard to get back on track, and we didn't use it thereafter, which was fine. We also felt we had plenty of time for self-funded lunch in the town of Delphi. We basically had the Tholos of Athena Pronaia all to ourselves, however briefly, in the afternoon! We had a fun time chatting about Tsiporo with our tour coordinator also (sorry, I can't remember her name). Ride back to Athens was also smooth.

Stunning day trip from Athens

Alessandra_P, Oct 2024

Highly recommended. Very relaxed tour with audioguides to enjoy each stop of the trip in total autonomy Ideal for solo travellers

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thank you! Perfect for solo travelers to enjoy a relaxed tour with audioguides for full autonomy!

Highly Recommend

Daria_G, Oct 2024

Vasili was a fantastic guide, so organized and clear. The trip went very smoothly and we had plenty of time to see Delphi, the Delphi Museum and have a delicious meal.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thank you! Vasili made the trip smooth and organized. Glad you enjoyed Delphi, the museum, and the meal!

Efficient way to see Delphi

Rhiannon_H, Oct 2024

Great trip to Delphi from Athens. Very efficient, we packed a lot into the day. Vasilis was a great; very helpful! Some comments to be aware of when booking: - Day ended up actually being 11 hours (we were the first pick up and last drop off) - Lunch was in Delphi, not Arachova as per the listing description. Still lovely, but something to be aware of - The visual component of the VR tool (smart phone) did not ‘orientate’ properly which made that function very difficult to use. Great to use as an audio guide though!

Knowledgeable Guides

Magdalena_R, Oct 2024

A great experience with very knowledgeable guides! Be aware of the strenuous walk at Delphi. Cute village visit

Good Day Tour Option

yuxuanng, Oct 2024

Tour was okay. Mainly just transportation provided. Worth a go if you have enough time on athens but not really a must see.

Loved Delphi

Anna_M, Oct 2024

Seeing the place I’ve heard of all my life was awesome. Our guide and driver were great. The VR software, though, was glitchy.

A moving experience

Y_T, Sep 2024

Loved that we could explore at our own pace and the VR device gave great and rich history we could refer back to. The energy at the Temple of Apollo was amazing, I was moved to prayer and felt myself tearing as I prayed

Fantastic!

Mihai_O, Jul 2024

Awesome experience! The ancient site of Delphi and the temple of Apollo deserve every single penny to experience. Our guide Maria is a true professional, she gave us detailed information regarding the archeological sites and was always smiling and ready to help. Highly recommend! ***Mihai from Romania 💪😁***

Delphi is a must

Neil_S, Jun 2024

Delphi is one of those places you have to go to - our guide Michaela was excellent, and plenty of time to go around

Highly recommend it

Carol_P, Jun 2024

Our tour guide was so sweet and informative. We went on the tour June 19rh on a Wednesday. The bus came on time but traffic in Athens caused a delay. It was such an enjoyable trip. I highly recommend it especially with the Wednesday tour guide. She really made the trip.

Great tour

Wendy_W, Jun 2024

Our tour guide Michaela is very thoughtful and nice. Send several reminders before the tour and even called me when I went to a different pickup point. The day is well planned. Have enough time to see everything in Delphi plus a few other nice stops. The bus is like new with very good air conditioning. Feel very comfortable in an extremely hot day. For my trip, there is only 11 people. Maybe I am lucky. Much better than I expected. Perfect day. Thanks!

VR Video Tour

Linda_P, Jun 2024

The trip to Delphi was wonderful. However had problems with the V.R. Audio did not work well. Finally gave up on it and just read the information that was provided. The museum is absolutely fantastic! Beautiful statues and artifacts.

Where the ancient gods would hang out.

Steve_R, Jun 2024

First time into the mountains of Greece for us and well worth the long bus ride. The small mountain towns and the vistas were breath taking and the ancient archeological sites warranted all the claims from today and history. Of course, the gods would visit here.

Stones and Vistas

Noah_A, May 2024

Fantastic day trip. The ruins were really nice and it was fun to see the VR representation of old delphi. We had lunch at a restaurant overlooking the Ionian sea which was a perfect view. Our guide Michela was very knowledgeable!
