2-Day Delphi and Meteora Tour from Athens

Posted By : Louise_S
It was interesting to visit Delphi and Meteora. But we were being told how little time we had the whole trip by a guide that gave me the impression she had better things to do. There was little engagement by the guide with those doing the tour.

The tour guides were really good and knowledgeable. They had good communication skills and very professional. The driver is exceptional... TomTom. Very meaningful experience. 5 stars

The tour was fantastic! Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and informative. The tour stopped for coffee breaks and lunch both ways to break up the journey, but the destinations were absolutely worth the length of the drive.
The town we stayed in was quaint, and the views were stunning. The shops, bars and restaurants stayed open late.

My only negative about this tour would be the accommodation. We selected the 3* hotel, but in my opinion this is a stretch, I’d give it a 1.5* at most. It was clean, but tired. The rooms were basic, and the towels were ready for retirement several years ago. The dinner and breakfast the accommodation provided was ok, not great. Do your self a favor - pay for the upgraded accommodation.

This tour was so worth it. Traveling with my two young adult sons. We love history and culture. The tour guide was excellent. Gave us great information throughout the entire trip.

Spectacular experience with informative & helpful tour guide Anna. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wish to see more of Greece in a short timeframe. The bus journey to Delphi is nothing but breathtaking. And the journey from Delphi to Meteora brings a total different experience. I must say, most of the time, we are spent on traveling. But the guide shared a lot of history and stories along the way. Also, the view itself is worth the ride. There is also WiFi on the bus (but connection can be slow in the mountains). Overall, we enjoyed this tour.

A fabulous way to visit two ‘must see’ destinations. Our guide Anna bought Greek history and culture to life.

Anna was such an outstanding tour guide complementing the beautiful scenery around Delphi and Meteora. She spoke with such enthusiasm that she kept us engaged. Words cannot describe the majestic peaks of the monasteries. I would also like to thank George for driving us safely and making the journey as comfortable and safe as possible!

This tour is a great way to see two wonderful sites that are quite far from Athens. The tour includes a lot of driving but it is all well worth it. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and conveyed lots of great information at the sties we visited and as we drove through Greece.

It should be noted that this tour company does not offer pick-ups from all hotels in Athens, so you should keep that in mind. I was under the impression that I would be picked up from my hotel but later learned that I needed to walk to a meeting point where I would be picked up.

A note on the dress code for Meteora. Women and men must both have their shoulders covered. Men can wear any shorts or pants that go past their knees. Women need to wear long skirts or they can wear shorts or pants and wrap a scarf around their waste to give the impression that they are wearing a long skirt.

I just realized that I didn't write this review, which is unfortunate, because I might have been able to remember the guide's name. We actually took this trip in the fall of 2021 when all the COVID rules were still in place. We booked a room at the Royal Olympic Hotel which was conveniently right next to the pick up spot. This was a two-day trip, and then we were planned to go on a cruise. There were about 8 of us in total, which is a great size for the best trips. There were beautiful views at Delphi, and we got some great photos. However, there is nothing (we think in the world) that compares to the breathtaking views in Meteora! To this day, it was the best trip of our lives. We happened to be on a cruise last year, and we were talking to a couple on a bus during a wine tour who said they planned to spend a few days in Athens at the end of the cruise. We told them about this excursion, found that it was still available, showed them some of our pictures, and raved about everything, including the accomodations and meals provided. They saw us the next day and were excited to tell us they booked the excursion. The problem was we didn't get their contact information to find out if they had a good time, since we recommended this to them. You know what? I bet they had the same amazing time we did. Nice job!
