Excellent trip with world class highlights at Delphi and Meteora. Expect some long drives, but scenery is beautiful and mountainous. Included is some free time to do your own thing, a well balanced tour. Guides are good, enthusiastic and well organised.
If you are still considering whether to go on this tour, do not hesitate! Delphi and Meteora are the "must see" places in Greece and indeed they are amazing, especially Meteora. Organization of the tour was perfect, hotels could not have been better each had a pool so you could cool off a bit after a long day but the best was the tour guide. Thanks to her, we got to know Greece, Greek tradition and habits much better. The trip was one of the best I had. Efharisto thank you in Greek Viator and the local agency!
We did this tour back in September, and it was very good. The guides were excellent, especially in terms of giving an overview of the history and constructions. The hotels were very good, and all in all we were able to see much more at a cheaper price than we could have arranging things on our own. We priced a few different options, and this tour was the best on paper for value for money. And now that we've done it, we agree that it was very worthwhile.
We had a fantastic trip, the tour guides, hotels as well as locations are recommended for all fellow travellers. The 2 day trip option is also available, however the 3 day option is perfect for those looking for a relaxed tour with a half day break for recuperation. The guides were very informative and shared insights on Greek culture, mythology, education as well as demographics. Excellent experience!
The trip was spectacular we really enjoyed Delphi and Meteora it was well worth the money and I would recommend it to all. The only negative was been dropped at the Delphi hotel without any feel back from the guide we didnt know what was going on or what was the plan for the next day we were at a loss.
The company does a good tour but make sure you are seeing all there is to see at each site. I think there are multiple versions at the same location. Upgraded hotel in Delphi has a great location, the one at Metora is well outside town. The stops are all good for photos and the time alloted is plenty to see what there is to see.
I felt that we had too much free and easy time e.g. the 2nd day trip to Meteora, we only departed at mid-day 1:30pm so a lot of time wasted.
A bit of a take. You travel to Delphi on 1 tour and spend that day and until 1400 hrs the next in Delphi. Then on to Meteora to overnight and the 3rd day to the monastries and back to Athens. In effect we wasted a day.
The first guide was fantastic! The second guide wasn't nearly as good, we couldn't really understand him, and he seemed constantly stressed out. On the way back, you are dropped off at your hotel. As we were traveling to Crete that night, we asked to be dropped to Piraeus as we thought the bus would pass right by. He rudely said there was no way to be dropped off there, but we passed by right where we needed to go but had to pay extra metro fare and waste an hour to get there from the center because the guide didn't feel like being helpful. The hotels were OK, the food wasn't great and the included meals are all buffets. Also none of the hotels had a double bed, just two singles stuck together, which may be an issue for you. It certainly was not comfortable. The sites are spectacular and should be done. Your call on whether the tour is the way to go. Viator wasn't the best experience for us - their customer service is pretty horrific. My advice is to find another tour.
The first day to Delphi was very good, and the tour guide was excellent. The second and third day were disappointing, with hours on the bus to spend just two hours in Meteora, and the guide was poor and spoke very little.
