After meeting your guide in Athens, hear tales about the ancient Greeks and their lives in Delphi while travelling by air-conditioned coach with zero carbon footprint. You will reach Delphi towards Mt. Parnassos, making a short rest stop outside the town of Levadia. The first stop is the Delphi archaeological site – a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Skip the lines and walk around the evocative ruins with your guide, see famous monuments like the monument of the Argive Kings, the treasury of the Athenians, the monument of Platea and the Temple of Apollo famous for its oracle. The second stop is the Delphi museum, with its spectacular exhibits. Be sure to check out the bronze Charioteer of Delphi and the Sphinx of Naxos. After lunch, visit Athena Pronaia Sanctuary, the most photographed spot in Delphi. Return to Athens passing by the picturesque Arachova, built on the slopes of Parnassus, well known for its attractive hand-woven carpets, rugs and quilts, as well as for its wine and cheese.

My cousin and I took this tour organized by Key Tours. Domnique was the guide who accompanied us on this 12 hour trip. She was very knowledgeable and was able to provide a lot of history on Greek Mythology which was relatable to the sites we saw. I would recommend this trip to tourists

Excellent trip, very well planned and executed. Our guide (Mariana) was incredibly well informed and provided us with interesting historical information, as well as facts about modern Greece, great summaries for various mythological stories and on point explanations. The team at Key Tours made sure everything went according to plan and that we didn't lack for anything during the trip. The archeological site of Delphi is a must see for anyone interested in experiencing ancient Greece and the additional information from our guide made the experience that much more enjoyable.

Delphi is a fascinating historic site. The ruins are beautiful and we had a great guide who provided lots of info on Greek mythology and the purpose of the ruins.

It was an outstanding and most memorable day trip from Athens to Delphi., I would highly recommend this to anyone. 100 mile drive was not too bad, and there were plenty of stops along the way. Our ride along guide Irene was outstanding and I give her five stars, I would give her 6 if the ratings went that high.

What a lovely tour. From bus to guide to the information was just perfect. I am sorry I am not able to recollect our Guide's name but it started from 'D' and she was excellent. With so much detailed history about the place it was nothing lesser than an wonderful experience!

The guide (Irena)was very knowledgeable and gave a significant information to help place the historical artifacts within context. Loved it. It was a long day with walking on uneven surfaces. I am not sure this was made clear as one individual asked for a wheelchair. Delphi is definitely not handicap accessible FYI. However, I appreciated the empathy of the guide in helping the individual. Lunch was a nice touch!

Fantastic experience. The only thing I would say was that lunch was very late (about 14:30) and they took us to an extremely overpriced cafe in the morning where everyone had to buy snacks at crazy prices. I would bring my own next time. Also would have liked 30 mins to explore the museum on my own, as we had a quick wizz round. Actually if I were to do it again I would stay in a pretty town like Arrachova for example, then go to the site as soon as it opens. Then you will have the whole mystic place to yourself. That would be truly amazing.

Delphi is a three-hour ride from Athens, so it makes sense to have someone do the driving for you. You have pit stops to and from the site for comfort so you need not worry about being in a bus too long. Our guide, Dimitrios, was very professional. He knew when to discuss the important historical information about the site and knew when to give our ears a rest. When on site, Dimitrios led us around the ruins and gave them context. He also led a spirited tour of the interior of the museum, discussing its most important highlights. The museum is not large so this did not take all that long. The highlight is the Charioteer from Delphi, but there are other notable works on display. The bus is comfortable although the seats are a bit tight and close to one another. The lunch is optional and in a sense is not. Those who prebook are in the same restaurant as those who do not, and there is no other place to go. The restaurant is located in a spot in which there are no other options. This is a fine tour. We were back in Athens at 6:30, however this was a Saturday. With Athens traffic, you may end up later during the week.
