Awesome family trip: Delphi, Meteora and Thermopyles. Thanks Theo! - Our tour guide-driver was Theo. He was an encyclopedia of Greek history. During the travel he kept us entertained with all type of interesting relevant information about our destinations. We went to Delphi, Meteora and Thermopyles. Every place was magic in its own way. We learn and feel Greek mythology in Delphi. We had stunning views in Meteora. The Monasteries are out of this world. The Thermopyles was interesting for its historical value. Theo our guide-driver was absolutely above and beyond in his services. The car was a MB van extremely comfortable. The tour was a full day experience worth every Euro!

An Unforgettable Family Experience – Delphi & Meteora Private Day Trip from Athens - Our Delphi and Meteora Private Day Trip from Athens with Dinner was absolutely phenomenal and one of the highlights of our family trip to Greece. From beginning to end, this tour was perfectly tailored for us and offered an unforgettable blend of history, mythology, breathtaking scenery, and warm hospitality. Our guide was truly exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about Greece’s rich history and mythology. The way they explained the stories of Delphi, the Oracle, and ancient Greek civilization made the sites come alive for both adults and kids alike. At Meteora, the guide’s insights into the monasteries, their history, and spiritual significance added so much depth to the experience. We walked away with a genuine appreciation for Greece’s past, not just facts, but meaningful stories that stayed with us. Traveling as a family, we especially appreciated how thoughtful and patient the guide was, making sure everyone was comfortable and involved throughout the day. The private setting allowed us to move at our own pace and truly enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. The day ended perfectly with a wonderful dinner, giving us time to relax, reflect, and enjoy delicious Greek food together—an ideal conclusion to an already amazing day. This tour was educational, inspiring, and incredibly memorable. If you’re visiting Athens and want a meaningful, family-friendly experience that showcases the very best of Greece’s history, mythology, and natural beauty, this private Delphi and Meteora trip is an absolute must. Highly recommended

Amazing full day - Dallas was an excellent driver. He came to pick us up on time, and provided excellent instructions at each stop. He told us about each place we visited, and we had excellent conversations with him throughout the day. My family walked through Delphi (museum and archeological site) and Meteora (including visiting inside one monastery). We are very glad that we did this trip. The feast dinner at the end of the day was very welcome; we enjoyed the home-like cooking and homemade wine. There were several gas station stops during the long day for bathroom breaks and for stretching. I would recommend people to pack a lunch because there really isn't a lunch stop. Dallas bought drinks and some snacks at one of the gas station stops which we enjoyed.

Pricate and comfy! - I've travelled through many means of transportation, for example uber, metro etc to visit monuments all over Greece! This trip was one of the best decisions that I've made; having a private spacious vehicle with a knowledgeable driver/tour guide for a 10+ hrs itinerary (long ride). A shout out to Dallas for making our Grecian visit memorable. You can sleep in peace and stop anywhere you like and pick your own tour itinerary. The alternative way to get to the these places are with others on a bus that I find to be uncomfortable and inconvenient. So I highly recommend for small intimate groups and families !

Excellent tour - It was a long whole day packed tour. But our driver and guide -PADDY made it very engaging. He gave very elaborate details of complete Greek history and all information about the monuments. It was raining a little bit and we had small kids in our group. Still we made everything on time. Paddy was very friendly and took care of all our needs including food stops, restroom stops, umbrellas for rain. Dinner at restaurant that was included was also elaborate seafood. Excellent quality. Owner was there checking all the time making sure we were taken care of
