At first I thought this was gonna be a really long day and almost decided not to go. But the journey was very comfortable. I didn’t feel overly tied from the travelling. Amazing guide. So knowledgeable. So passionate. So interesting. The lunch was really tasty. What a wonderful experience. So pleased we booked it.

Delphi itself was fine. The batteries in my whisperer box were weak and the guide kept cutting in and out. I had to stand next to him to hear. He had extra batteries but not enough for all the folks who needed them (probably a third or more of the group) and he commented that the company had given him only used batteries.
Guide got his feathers ruffled when a family broke from the group-not sure if they were doing their own thing or what but he did not handle it well, reprimanding them publicly. We practically ran through the. Museum. Nowhere near enough time.
Was crowded and I wondered if it would be better to leave earlier-maybe 6:30 am to get there before too busy.
The stop on the way back was a colossal waste of time and a fairly hard sell from the shop owner.

We liked Delphi when we finally got there. It is way too long a bus ride for the amount of time that you get to stay there, at least for us, 3 1/2 hour bus ride each way to be there for about 2 1/2 hours. We left a glowing review for our trip to the Acropolis, this one not so much. We enjoyed the other trip but our guide had been amazing. The guide on this trip, not so much. She made us feel like she was giving us a quiz, asking questions, like we were being quizzed instead of just giving us the information. We would have liked more Information, and more organization, better instruction, she didn’t hardly talk at all on the bus, we would pass significant structures and not hear a word about them. Then once we got to the site, half the time we were listening to feedback because she was too close to her mike, the other half we we in fear of losing her because she kept changing her mind about the direction she was going and only had a small book to hold up for us to keep track of her. She stated a couple of times that is you lose me just look for me up at the site. Not thrilled. The village of Delphi is truly charming, the ruins are interesting , just not enough for me to advise you to go on this tour.

This was a well organised trip with great historical commentary. It was interesting to visit such a well known place but I was a bit disappointed as various areas within the site were not open. The museum was worth the effort. The scenery was amazing with a bonus stop at a mountain village.

I’m so glad I chose to take this amazing all day excursion for one of my three days in Athens. The history, mythology, beautiful mountain setting and amazing artifacts recovered here far exceeded my expectations. It is a long 2 1/2 hour drive that includes a restroom stop and the scenery on the way will keep you awake. We had plenty of free time to look around the site on our own after the narrated portion of the tour finished. The tour includes a visit to the museum where the best artifacts are kept.
Our group was only 15 people on a large comfortable coach bus.
I opted out of the lunch option and I’m glad I did. There are lots of very nice restaurants with beautiful views in the town of Delphi. Be aware that lunch is not until 2 PM so pack accordingly. You will do a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes and bring water.

Delphi theatre was good, as was getting out of Athens and seeing the mountains. Value for money not good - flaky headset monitors, way too rushed and could have read a brochure about the exhibits we saw. The guide was knowledgable on "Antiquity" and Hellenism in general, but it felt like he was ticking a box - perhaps the size of the tour was too large to really care. Lunch was barely edible - driest piece of chicken i have ever tried to eat. The stops on the way home reeked of commission baseed selling of junk trinkets.

Great tour - loved our guide, Rose. She provided appropriate information at each stop. Many groups passed us by, so it was easy to tell we were having a longer tour with more details being provided.
