Set in beautiful mountainous surroundings, and full of historic treasures, Delphi is a Greek jewel not to be missed. Step back in time on this day trip with a local and discover this ancient site for yourself. Plus visit a picturesque village and the beautiful Parnassus Mountain at the same time.
Start your day like a local by enjoying Athens’s best breakfast, Greek pies. Whether you have a sweet tooth or are in the mood for something savory, there are flavors to suit all tastes. After breakfast, it’s time to escape the city and take a scenic drive to the famous Delphi site.
On our way to the archeological site we will make a refreshing stop at the picturesque town of Livadia to admire the natural springs of Herkyna river.
Delphi is full of historical treasures so take your time to discover them all. From the ancient temple to historic statues there is plenty to see. Plus your local host will share stories, myths and historical facts with you as you stroll along the paths together.

We selected Nikos to take us (3 sisters from the U.S.) on a day trip to Delphi based on his reviews here. He did a great job, we felt very comfortable, and really enjoyed his enthusiastic knowledge and stories. He went out of his way to make sure we were well taken care of, from stopping for coffee and bathroom breaks, to dropping us off at easy access to the sites, for the right amount of time. He then took us to a great local restaurant that was not full of the tour bus crowds which we really appreciated. It was a restaurant in the nearby town of Arachova, family owned for 120 years, and that was really special. We especially appreciated that Nikos was easy to talk to and a great conversationalist with lots of international adventures to share so the conversation was lively both to and from Delphi and during the lunch we shared with him. Thank you, Nikos!

We had a fantastic day trip to Delphi with Nikos. He arrived on time, navigated the Athens traffic with ease, was extremely friendly and engaging in addition to being a wealth of information.
We were thrilled with our day and highly recommend Nikos.

Had a great day with Thomas! He spent many years in the UK so speaks great English. You won't feel rushed with Thomas -- he's got a plan for how the day should go but won't make you slurp down your cappuccino freddo to save 10 mins and get to the next step. He knows a lot about Delphi and clearly enjoys the areas. A meal in Arachova, the "Winter Mykonos", was a highlight -- great food/very relaxing. Thomas even sent us information about our next stop on our trip even though he wasn't guiding us. Really good experience and full day of siteseeing!

Nikos provided one of the highlights of our visit to Greece when he drove us to and from Delphi. You couldnu2019t choose a better guide for all of the above reasons. A history buff now formalising his passion with study in history and archaeology, his knowledge was remarkable and so valuable as we toured the site and the museum. But his care and personal interest made the experience very special - as did the wonderful stops for coffee, pastries and lunch 😁 Thanks so very much Nikos. We won’t forget our time with you.

I can't recommend Ioannis and this tour enough. Truly, it was our best day in Greece. What sets this tour apart is you're not just going to Delphi and getting dropped off. You get to see sites along the way and get a real feel for the country. We hit all of the major sites along the way, but also had a terrific lunch in a little seaside village, went for a swim and a beer at a local spot, and grabbed coffee in a village with a medieval castle.
Ioannis is also extremely knowledgeable about Greek history and is genuinely a pleasure to chat with. If you do one thing outside of Athens, do this.

Nikolas “Niko” was our guide to Delphi and we had a wonderful time. He was friendly, knowledgeable and interjected his interest by showing us a beautiful monastery. He accommodated our pace and helped personalize the trip by quickly learning our names and asking us individual questions to make sure everyone was engaged. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. Trip was actually in 2019, but wanted to refresh this after a poor travel season in 2020.

Manos tells narratives and explains the how and why of the history, not just dates, so that it's meaningful and you will remember it. He makes life out of the old stone and marble so that you can envision it all!

Nikos is a very dedicated guide who did everything right to make it a great day for us. His stories are entertaining and informative about the archeology, mythology and history of Delphi and all the notable places between Athens and Delphi. Conversation with Nikos is great and personal. This day trip was something we will always remember.

We just spent the day with Yorgos visiting Delphi. He knows all about the site and it's history. When Yorgos speaks about the oracle and the Gods they come alive. He is a very fun person and gave us the feeling we already knew each other instead of having just met.
