It was wonderful. The tour guide Militsa was very knowledgable and very clear on her explanations. Friendly, helpful. The bus driver, Socrates, loves to keep the bus very clean and comfortable and as well very safe driver. It was very positive and enriching experience

Amazing. Our guide Anthony at Delphi was great. For Meterora Dominique was exceptional- so helpful, knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the area. Dominique went above and beyond for special request for us to honour a recently passed friend. Thank you again.

Loved our tour guide Militsa who was super informative and so nice. And our lovely bus driver Ioannis, always took time to play with our 1 year old baby whom we bought on the trip. Managed to do everything we wanted to in those 2 days, my favourite personally was Delphi. The hotel was beautiful as well. Would recommend this tour for sure 😊
