An amazing day out in the mountains. - Fantastic day trip to get out of the city chaos. Our guide Julia was awesome, charming, sweet, and very informative. The bus was very comfortable with impressive wifi on board, didn't drop during the whole trip. You are given 2 hours and 15 minutes to see delphi's ruins and the museum next door. At first I thought that it would be rushed but we felt we saw both sites with a nice pace. I'd recommend to hike up the mountain to the stadium in one go, then decend slowly and take all the breathtaking photos you want and enjoy the different stunning views. The tour also included a tour guide app which you could play at anytime, we played it in reverse as we were walking down. 2 hours in a beautiful mountain town for food or exploring and we were back to Athens by 5:30. I like the idea of taking the metro to the outskirts and then taking our tour bus next to the highway, much faster route. Great trip, would strongly recommend to anyone.

Edutainment - We had a fantastic trip thanks to our guide and driver Theodore. He was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. We also had plenty of free time to wander around after the bus trip up into the mountains. Excellent value for money too.

Excellent experience! - The tour was one of my favorite parts of my trip! Vassilios (I hope I'm saying the name correctly, sorry!!) was super knowledgeable, funny, and friendly. He gave us the perfect balance of myths, history, and general fun facts (and food recommendations, yum!) And he even helped us navigate the way back when we learned of a sudden metro strike. The ride was comfortable and the schedule was perfect. Arahova and Deplhi were both beautiful sights that looked different from Athens, definitely worth the ride. Would love to join this tour again if I get the chance to visit again :)
