There’s no better place to truly view the best of Greece than Delphi, a breathtaking town with diverse natural beauty and history that can’t be missed! The UNESCO heritage site is known as the center of the Earth, as Ancient Greeks held a strong belief that Delphi was the 'navel' of the world. Experience this charming day trip with us, as we take you from Athens to Delphi, complete with comfortable transport, and a licensed and friendly tour guide.
The day trip starts from Athens, traveling through the pleasant Greek countryside. Learn about the history of Delphi throughout your trip as you witness the famous landmarks and hear renowned tales of Greek mythology. We recommend our guided day trip, as our local guide can choose the most scenic route to the town of Delphi.
We’ve planned a wonderful trip for our visitors, comprising all the famous sites and all the must-have experiences. Our 8-hour tour includes the charming cosmopolitan village of Arachova. Near Delphi, the village of Arachova (Aráhova) is present at the base of Mt. Parnassos. Its mountain ranges make up for the majority of its charm, While Arachova is known for its nightlife, a stop during a day trip suffices for one to leave with memories of breathtaking landscapes and modern amenities. Arachova is also home to state-of-the-art resorts, attracting ski enthusiasts from all over the world during the winter season.
On our way to the town's center is a visit to the Delphi Archaeological Museum, home to a remarkable collection of significant discoveries. View ancient architectural sculptures, statues, and various artifacts and objects from around Greece. Among the museum's notable exhibits are the enigmatic Sphinx of Naxos, the Charioteer of Delphi, and the band of the Siphnian Treasury.
Next visit during your day trip will be the Temple of Apollo—the heart of Ancient Delphi. The hillside sanctuary was once a sacred destination to seek prophecies from the revered god from Greek mythology, Apollo. These prophecies were conveyed through his chosen oracle, a woman hailing from the local area.
You’ll also explore the Temple of Athena Pronaia, which is present approximately half a mile away from the main structures of the sanctuary of Delphi. Originally, this shrine was constructed at the entrance of Delphi, devoted to the goddess Athena who safeguarded her half-brother Apollo.
Our tour also includes the Ancient Theatre and the Ancient Stadium. The complete trip from Athens to Greece is more than just a tour of the best of Ancient Greece; it's a way for you to connect to the past!
We provide an air-conditioned vehicle as your mode of travel, as well as stop for lunch at a popular traditional Greek tavern so you can indulge in the most delectable traditional local cuisine around. A timely drop-off at your hotel ends a memorable trip.
