Worthwhile day out. - Good day out. Comfortable coach. Excellent guide. Lunch was a bit rushed, but that’s the nature of these things. Overall, worth the money.

Day trip to Delphi - Wonderful trip an experience. The visit was breath taking - to see the ruins and listen to the tour guide explain the history of the site was amazing. Tour guide was great. She did a great job giving history of the site, explaining things, and keeping you engaged. Well done and thank you. We had the lunch included option. Very good choice of restaurant in town and food was really good. It took the whole hour so there wasn't much time to walk around the town but we got to see enough. Thank you so much for a great experience. Highly recommend this trip.

Julia was great! Learned a lot about Delphi! - Julia was very knowledgeable about Delphi and Greek history in general. She was very thorough and made sure all important & notable points were discussed and showed to the group. She was also patient with questions & requests for bathroom breaks. The food in the restaurant that came with the tour in arachova was good and serving was substantial. The town was also quaint and nice we had some free time to go around. The walk back to the bus was a bit far but that's because the roads were small and only one way. We had some elderly with us so that was the only improvement areas.

Beautiful and interesting day trip - Great day trip! delphi is such an interesting and beautiful site beside the mountains. Our tour guide "John the archaeologist" was very helpful, friendly and his tour both for the museum and the site was informative and well-paced. Food was ok and options were limited but not bad for the price

Guide and tour were great but their sound system to listen to the guide needs troubleshooting or an upgrade. - Our guide was very knowledgeable however the portable sound devices we wore malfunctioned as much as they functioned so we missed much of her commentary. This was the only real problem with the tour. Bus and lunch were great and it was fun to meet others on our journey.

Significant walking/stairs to reach the Temple of Apollo - Excellent tour and guide. It's quite the drive from Athens so the time at Delphi is limited. A significant portion is spent in the museum and the remaining time is spent climbing the hill to the Temple of Apollo. It's quite the climb! That leaves limited time there before you have to descend to catch the bus for the ride home. As a 75yo not particularly fit male, I threw in the towel half way up and took a break before I started back down. Not disappointed at all. Saw everything except what's at the top. All the pictures you see are generally taken at the Temple so don't feel I missed anything. Highly recommend the tour. Just giving a "heads up" for what's in store for you.

Delphi Worth A Visit, But This Was Not A "Premium" Tour Due to Guide Shortcomings - I highly recommend a trip to Delphi, but only with a quality tour guide. Our guide was pleasant and seemed knowledgeable, but between her broken English and her very thick accent, it was difficult to understand what she was saying most of the time. I estimate we comprehended only about 30 - 40% (at most) of what she said, so we didn't get nearly as much out of the tour that we should have. We booked this tour ourselves as part of a recent Greece/Mediterranean trip/cruise, during which we went on a total of 10 tours (7 of them booked through our cruise line) involving Greek, Egyptian and Turkish tour guides, all of whom (except the Delphi guide) were clearly understandable, despite English not being their first language. So, I think I can say from experience that the Delphi tour guide, even though she may have been knowledgeable, did not measure up to typical tour guide standards that we experienced during our trip in that she was unable to effectively communicate her knowledge, and therefore the Delphi tour that this tour company provided was definitely not a "Premium" tour.

Don’t take the lunch.... - Don’t take the lunch. It’s not an authentic Greek lunch. They rush you and the choices were not appetizing. You are better off eating at your own expense where you can choose your meal. They were also not supportive when it came to the dessert for those with nut allergies. When I asked if there was an option without nuts very rudely said no. Angela our guide was very nice very knowledgeable.
