    A unique experience! Katarina - the guide with the best storytelling... Most of all thanks to the excellent guide! In the very first minute she created an incredible atmosphere (kalamari/kalimera) and conjured Delphi so much that we felt like we were part of ancient times... Every time entertaining and informative, she gave us countless interesting stories not only about ancient times but also about the everyday life of modern Greeks... P.S. And we also met the president of Greece :) and passed the test ;) "Grigoris"/Igor

    Great trip! Bus was very clean and timely. Tomas and Marianna were amazing! Very educational and kind. You make stops for bathroom breaks and snacks, and the lunch was delicious. Absolutely worth the money, but buying the attraction tickets when you buy the transfer is the best option to save you some hassle.

    Great tour really enjoyed it however I was confused as I booked a transfer only option with no tour but ended up on a tour anyway?

    Our guide, Marianna, was extremely knowledgeable and spoke fluent English. She was great about mentioning extra details even on the trip up to Delphi & back. The tour was incredible! Gorgeous views outside of Athens! Amazing history brought to life in the stories of Delphi! Lunch was 5 stars! Absolutely wonderful experience, no drawbacks. Driver Thomas was super skilled & maneuvered bus through small streets safely and with ease.
