Our guide/driver welcomed us in a small group. We were comfortably transported to Delfi. She presented some of the history of the area during our transportation. We were free to explore the site on our own at our pace. The museum presented some interesting artifacts. The venture to Arachovia was close. Interesting area, good food. Thank-you for the opportunity!

Just finished the day tour and tour operator is Ammon Express. The best part of the tour is tour guide, Julie and bus driver, Julie is very nice and polite, always smiling, bus driver is nice and safe. There are few problems with this tour agent, first, most important, we only have 2 hours and 10 minutes to spend in Delphi, basically one hour in archaeological site and one hour in the museum , very disappointing, felt rushed, you won’t see everything if you have children. Second, once you are in Delphi site and museum , you are on your own, tour guide will not go in the site and museum with the group, unlike other tour operators, tour guide will explain and tell stories inside the site and museum. Third, there is no wifi on the bus, unlike advertised. Lastly, after Delphi, we spent 2 hours in a small town for lunch, I’d rather spend more time in Delphi.

We did the Delphi trip from Athens with an audioguide. Comfortable ride. Very knowledgeable tour leader! Fun stop in Arachova!

Dmitra was an absolute GEM of a tour-guide with an MSc in Archaeology she proved to be the best guide one needed on a trip to Delphi. Highly recommend the experience to Delphi.

We had a pleasure to visit archeologycal site and museum of Delphi as well as Arachova village. The time dedicated to Delphi and museum was not the same as mentioned in tour descripton. But it was enough. Also we didn't visit Delphi village. Which was mentioned in the tour itinerary. And we didn't visit Castalian spring. We thought we didn't find it. But as we realised later it is situated away of archeological site. Also have in mind that the road to Tolos of Athena Pronaia is closed. So you will not visit is as well. The time in Arachova village was a bit too much. As there's no much to see there. Also we expected big tourist bus. But they use a small Mercdes van. The driver and the guide is the same person. Her driving style was a bit crazy. Constant acceleration and braking. But everything was on time. And we came back safe.

such a fun time, super nice guide, you'll love the sights. delphi is beautiful and a worthy experience, it is a bit of a hike so be prepared for that. the town of arachova is quaint and charming. and even the drive there is nice with a view of the mountains

It was a fun time! Vivian was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and funny, the bus was comfortable, and of course Delphi and Arahova were breathtaking. Highly recommended!

I went on this tour with Vivienne, who I’m highly appreciated for being my guide for both days of my tour with Ammon Express. She’s very knowledgeable and told us many interesting stories about Delphi. I didn’t know much about Delphi before so when I was actually there, I’m really amazed by the sites. The temple of Apollo and ancient theatre situated among mountain is a spectacular sights to see and though tholos of Athena Pronaia is closed to visitor right now, you can still see the place from uphill. The museum is also very well-managed and there are many interesting displays. We had lunch and free time afterward in Arachova, a lovely town situated on mountain. You could walk up to the clock tower to see the view of the town. I totally recommend this tour for everyone who’s interested in visiting Delphi and Arachova :)
