The trip and guide were awesome, but the pickup at my hotel was a little confusing.

Delphi is definitely worth the trip, not to be missed. The lunch they provided was really very good, which is not always the case with some tours. The only down side was the very long bus ride. It was especially long on the way back, and after a 11 hour day, that was tough. The biggest problem was the Athens traffic, and I do not think that is going to get better, so do take the trip.

A wonderful experience. Would have loved to have more time to be able to explore Delphi - could have done without the stop in the town right after. Staff was informative and helpful.

The hotel pickup was great, the tour guide was great, and even the hotel where where we ate was great. I recommend that you bring plenty of water for Delphi in the summertime. It was 42C when we went but still doable. Also, bring an extra shirt to change into afterwards.

Delphi was beautiful. It was very hot the day that we went in June. The drive was long and quite unentertaining, but the tour at Delphi was well worth doing!

Trip was great, would recommend as a day trip out of Athens. Would have liked a bit more time in Delphi, just another hour or two would have been absolutely perfect. Do not expect to see the Tholos in ancient Delphi on this tour, except at a distance.

The trip from Athens to Delphi is well worth doing. It is a very long way 200 kms and takes over 3 hours, which means the time you have in Delphi is a little limited but I would still recommend it as it is such a magical place. The views are spectacular and the museum is fantastic. The guide was very good and informative - the coach journey provided the ideal opportunity to catch up on Greek mythology and she made it interesting. Not ideal for anyone with mobility problems. Also, there is a little messing around first thing in the morning when you are taken to a meeting point for the various pick up parties to get on to their respective trip buses but nothing too bad.

Great trip, Delphi is definitely worth going to. My only grumble is that the coach spent a long time picking up people in Athens and went past my pick up point 3 times - so why did I have to get on at 7.30 and be stuck in the dreadful Athens traffic. One or two central pick up points would have been much better and then we could have spent more time looking round Delphi and the museum as the visit seemed a little rushed once we'd arrived.

We had a good and very informative guide and a comfortable new bus.

This was an excellent day trip from Athens. Our guide was very informative, the drive was beautiful, and Delphi was fascinating. We enjoyed the short stop in Arachova on the way back.

The drive was beautiful and our tour guide had an incredible knowledge base about everything we were seeing. I think this trip could be made better by having a central location meeting point and have everyone arrive there at the same time to leave town. We were picked up about 7:35am and by the time everyone got picked up and we left Athens it was close to 10am. The site itself was incredible but we didn't feel like an hour to explore all of it not counting the museum was not enough time. That is the only reason I didn't rate it absolutely fantastic.
