Embark on a full-day trip to Delphi from Athens and discover what was once believed to be the center of the world and now, one of the most popular destinations in Greece. It is the perfect place to understand the history of Greece and Greek mythology.
Delphi Day Trip
After collecting you from your hotel in Athens, we'll head to Delphi, a fascinating town declared a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to the world-famous Temple of Apollo.
On the way, we'll drive past the hilly region of Boeotia and the city of Thebes, a major site in Greek mythology, without stopping. The tour also includes a brief stop at Livadeia for a quick break to get a coffee or go to the toilet.
After a journey from Athens of about 3 hours, we'll arrive in Delphi, known in antiquity as the center of the world. Once here, we’ll spend 2.5 hours visiting the Monument to the Argos Kings, the Athenian Treasury and the famous Temple of Apollo. Next, we'll marvel at the masterpieces housed in the Delphi Archaeological Museum, including the impressive Charioteer of Delphi.
Then, you'll have 1.5 hours of free time to eat a delicious traditional Greek lunch at a family-run restaurant (optional). Afterwards, we'll return to Athens, stopping at Arachova, a picturesque mountain town established on the southern mountainside of Mount Parnassus.
The bus will drop you off at your hotel after a total of over 10 hours.
