Dec 8th was a slightly rainy day but being from. Seattle we know how to prepare for that. Our driver had water and umbrellas if we needed them. Pick up on time, safe traveling to Delphi with an optional coffee stop and stretch legs. Accurate on amount of time it took to walk around and see what we need to see so meet up time after was coordinated. He kindly made reservation for lunch at a very nice restaurant . Best table in the house. Such friendly waiters and excellent food. The drive was a bit long due to a detour due to a rock fall but we had really good stimulating conversations and even went to a technology museum on his recommendation and he was spot on that it was fascinating, good info, presented well and with fun interactive people too.

Michael was a great driver and a wealth of information. The trip is long from Athens and he provided just the right amount of commentary while respecting our privacy. Delphi itself is amazing. One cannot adequately describe the majesty of the mountaintop. Don’t skip the lunch option. Everything was sublime.

We spent two days in Athens and I really wanted to experience Delphi. This private tour was exactly what we needed. Fotis was a great tour guide. He is a very polite and personable young man with so much passion and knowledge about Greece's history. While the drive to Delphi is about 2 hours, it goes by so quick with Fotis. He and my husband talked about everything from basketball, the military, and of course Greece. After seeing Delphi, he took us to an amazing Tavern with an incredible view for truly authentic Greek food. The Tavern was really nice and the food exceptional. If you want to spend a day in Delphi, this is the way to do it.

Delphi is much more extensive than I had expected. Spend at least an hour walking the ruins or an hour and a half if you go to the stadium. The museum is also worth spending an hour or more. Helps with understanding the ruins better. Second only to the Acropolis in bringing history alive.
