The ride was smooth. Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about Greek history especially Delos. She gave us an amazing overview of this superbly significant archeological site. Having a guide with you also helps you get a nice overview without overwhelming yourself, especially when it’s such a huge archeological site. She also showed us many hidden gems. Absolutely loved this tour. We also briefly visited the museum at the end on our own. Abundance of cute cats on the island added to our experience :)

The guide was down to earth and passionate about the subject! Having a guide at Delos was so much better than trying to go it alone. We were very happy

Ilona is amazing. She is knowlegdable, super smart and funny&speaks excellent English. Best guide no doubts. Afternoon trip is magical as you see Delos during golden hour. One thing to bare in mind is that people smoke on the boat so that is very uncomfortable. It is not something organizer can controll but just to give people a headsup.
