We did the tour in winter 2023. We were very lucky with the weather (20 degrees) and sunny. We were picked up punctually at the meeting point and the tour started in the direction of Delphi with small stops and explanations. In the morning we took a break in the café. At Delphi we had 2 hours to visit the place and the museum. After the place there was lunch. The restaurant was ok. It wasn't as bad as my prescribers have made known here. Typical Greek tavern. After dinner we had a stay in Arachova village. Luckily we were there in winter so this place gets very nice. Beautiful village. All in all the tour was great and would recommend. The only point of criticism would be that the seats in the minibus were very narrow. At almost 1.90m, I had problems finding a comfortable sitting position.

If you go to Athens you should for sure book this guide tour. The experience was fantastic,and worth it for the price that we paid we visited the two villages of Delphi and Arachova both with a fantastic view and many things to see. Thank you to Athena for explaining us everything about the history and the archeology of the villages she was so kind to us and very helpful. Great experience. I recommend it to everyone that visits Athens.

The trip was worth it just to see the ancient structures on the beautiful mountain. There was not much to do in Arachova other than the sight top of the clock tower, hence the stop was much shorter than Delphi. Highly recommended!

A great day out exploring Delphi and Arachova, with beautiful scenery throughout, and a great guide who provided detailed and interesting history information!

Very comfortable and convenient. Bill, being an archeologist is a great guide and treasure trove of informarion.
