Depart Athens with a friendly escort (archaeologist) by bus from the Halandri Metro station and reach Delphi that rises between two terraced rocks, the Fedriades. Delphi is considered the “navel of the earth” and the center of the wisdom of ancient Greek civilization. It was the holiest site of ancient Greek hosting the Oracle of Delphi with the priory of Olympian god Apollo, Pythia who transferred the prediction of the god to the humans. Explore the Oracle of Delphi and drink water from the sacred Castalia spring. If you are lucky, who knows maybe Pythia’s ancient spirit reveals you the future! Walk around the archaeological site with the unique findings such as the Treasure of the Athenians, the Dome of Athens Foresight, the Temple of Apollo, the ruins of Ancient Stadium and the Theater of Delphi.

The guide didn't join us to the site and museum. Which was a big deception for me. Other groups were followed by a guide who was telling and paying attention to important details.

We had a wonderful time! Our guide, Angelica (I think was her name), was the best. She was sweet and told great stories and was super helpful. I would tour with this company again.
