Patrick – Germany

The Guide was really experienced, knowledgeable about the place and very passionate about teaching others about it she really wanted everyone to learn about it and always pointed out what to look for especially to better appreciate what we saw. And she had a very strong voice and much energy to achieve that. The bus ride was fairly comfortable and the microphone and headphone-setup worked pretty well. The place itself is a real must see and even the museum was a lot of fun with the guide explaining it and making sure everybody has enough space and could see and hear her. The food option seemed worth it but you can also book only the transfer and guide and get the tickets and food yourself to save a bit of money.

Our one-day Delphi trip with Go Tours was fantastic, thanks to our guide, Effi! Her deep knowledge of Greek history and mythology brought the ancient site to life. She shared fascinating insights, answered all our questions, and kept the group engaged throughout. The tour was well-organized, with comfortable transport and ample time to explore. Highly recommend Go Tours and Effi for an unforgettable experience!

Full description

Discover Delphi on a guided tour from Athens. Visit the Temple of Apollo and Delphi Archaeological Museum and take in the views of the Greek countryside.
Depart Athens and drive through the fertile plain of Boeotia, crossing the town of Thebes, world-renowned for its tragic story of King Oedipus. Continue through the picturesque towns of Livadeia and Arachova on the slopes of Mount Parnassus.

Upon arrival at Delphi, explore the "Omphalos" ("Navel of the Earth").
Marvel at the ruins of an ancient sanctuary that grew rich as the seat of the oracle. Learn how its influence extended beyond the confines of the Hellenic world, and take in the views of a landscape of unparalleled beauty.

See the remains of the Sanctuary of Apollo Pythios, and visit the Treasury of the Athenians. Look at the remaining columns of the Temple of Apollo, and go to the Delphi Archaeological Museum where masterpieces of Ancient Greek sculpture can be found.
Look at the legendary Charioteer of Delphi, regarded as one of the finest bronze sculptures of the ancient world. See the statue of the athlete Aghias and other artifacts from antiquity.

Enjoy lunch in the modern village of Delphi, before the return trip to Athens by the same route (if selected). A short stop in Arachova will be provided for your comfort.

Our tour guide, Effie, was awesome - super knowledgable! There was free time allowed at the site of Delphi after we had been given the information from Effie which I thought was great as I’ve done similar tours and had no free time before.
