Additional Information

On this journey, we explore Delphi, regarded as the epicenter of religious significance in the ancient Greek civilization and home to Pythia, the most esteemed oracle. Nestled on Mount Parnassus’s slopes, the ruins of the Sanctuary of Apollo offer a picturesque view of the ancient scenic beauty. People across Greece would come seeking advice from Pythia, Apollo’s oracle. Her prophecies profoundly impacted history’s pivotal moments, contributing to its UNESCO World Heritage Site status. The Temple of Apollo serves as the focal point of a comprehensive archaeological location, encompassing the Treasuries of the Siphnians and Athenians, a theater, and a stadium. The site also hosts a museum, where you can witness the infamous Delphic Charioteer and Antinous’s statue, Hadrian’s lover. We also make a stop at the scenic mountain hideaway of Arachova, where you can unwind, soak up the beautiful vistas, or savor a coffee at one of the myriad cafés.

Highly recommend, they are amazing! - Terry was AMAZING! He bent over backwards to take great care of us, gave us great information and recommendations, and offered a great price. We used the company for airport and a port transfer as well and they were punctual, helpful and did a great job accommodating us.

Clean vehicles, fantastic drivers. - CATTaxi was the best choice for our trip to Athens. Super clean vehicles, friendly and knowledgeable drivers, and fantastic experiences from start to finish. Our driver for the Delphi day trip knew the best photo spots and made sure we didn't miss the iconic locations. He recommended a delicious place to have lunch with food "like grandmama makes" and a gorgeous view in Arachova. He also helped us find and retrieve our lost luggage. Thanks Terry, for saving the day and making our trip so much fun! Don't hesitate, just book them.

Second to none service! Definitely recommend! Value for money! - Great friendly service! Our driver was always punctual,super helpful and was great with the kids. Made sure we made it to our hotel ok, despite a 3hr delay at night with Ryan Air. Recommended lots of local restaurants which were very authentic. Very knowledgable about all aspects of Athens, Greece, ancient Greek history, which went down well with the kids. Also lets you choose your own music for the day trips which helps with 3/4 hour rides! Ended up using Cattaxi for the 5 days we were there, which is how great the service was. Especially Terry our driver!

Vasili Very knowledgeable driver - We would like to thank our very good driver Vasili, who took us on our day trip from Athens to Delphi. Vasili was very knowledge, very helpful, and very caring of us. Vasili kept us entertained on our journey, several hours each way to Delphi and return to Athens. We would have no hesitation in recommending Vasili to anyone.
