Rtx - Our driver Ozzie was amazing. He picked my wife and I up from our hotel at 6 am in a Mercedes sedan that was very large and comfortable. Shortly out of Athens he stopped and we got some coffee and food. Ozzy was a great tour guide and made the tour 14 hours fly by. we ended the tour with some good Greek food before being dropped off at our hotel. This is the best way to see all three sites in one day and we highly recommend it and Ozzy.

Meteora is a must do. - A must do while in Greece. Meteora is simply amazing. Kostis brought us to the monasteries he knew my aunt could go to. Delphi is a cute little town. The only feedback I would give is to give the option of eating lunch in Delphi or Arachova as they are cute towns to enjoy.

Book it!!! - We had a fantastic tour with Marcelo! Marcelo is knowledgeable about history and all the areas we traveled to during this trip. He was thoughtful, kind, and would highly recommend him for future tours. The mountain views on the way to Delphi are incredible. Arachova is a beautiful town and plan to come back there to visit. Meteroa is incredible! Definitely worth it!!!

Beautiful views with wonderful guides! - We had a fantastic day with Marselo and Sir Takis who kept us entertained and engaged during the drive with historical information and fun conversation. Marselo and Takis arrived early to our airbnb to pick us up. The day starts early enough that you do not run into traffic. We first went to Delphi which had the most amazing views. The weather cooperated and by the time we got out of the museum, the sun was coming out. We spent extra time viewing the site and both Marselo and Takis waited for us and made us feel like we were not rushed. Meteora was another fantastic stop and we actually stopped at multiple vista points to get wonderful photos. The tour does also take you to where the Spartans fought the Persians, the epic site of the movie 300! I honestly recommend this tour to anyone trying to get the most out of their trip to Athens! The tour is not rushed and the ride was comfortable. We also loved Marselo and Taki! Both were so kind and made us feel comfortable :)

Fantastic day trip! - This trip to two of Greece's most iconic sites outside of Athens was a breathtaking, all-day adventure. It was made possible by our amazing driver and guide Sebastian. Delphi in the morning silence with birdsong, without loud tourist groups, was something timeless. And the magnificent Meteora, which lifts you closer to the sky - you can't imagine a better ending to a visit to Greece!

Great way to see locations outside of Athens! - Ozzy was excellent! Super friendly from good WhatsApp communication the evening before to a warm greeting at 6:15a pickup. Yes, the early pickup was painful, but what a wonderful day of exploring the beautiful countryside of Greece. Ozzy added context to each location, and made the entire 14 hours enjoyable. That includes being aware and quiet during naps between locations. He added the ‘special sauce’ to make this a very enjoyable and adventurous experience. As mentioned in the description, realize this is not a tour of each location, but rather great/comfortable transport along with valuable information before and after each location. I suggest the audio guides for each location (Delphi and Meteora have different guides and there isn’t one for Thermopoly).

An extraordinary day. Absolutely wonderful. - Excellent overall. I look back on it with such pleasure. Very glad we left Athens early. We bought a super breakfast at Arachova from a local high quality bakery on the way. Delphi was beautiful. Museum first, the site after that. We had two hours in total, which was fine. Make sure to have enough time left after visiting the museum as you want to climb up to the theatre and to the stadium. I think you need 1.15 hrs for outside. On to Meteora. We visited Varlaam, absolutely beautiful, special memories, many really good quality souvenirs in the shop, a fantastic selection. We were lucky there was time to briefly visit a second monastery. The landscape is stunning. I was so lucky with my wonderful travel companions too. Luxury mini Mercedes Bus. On to Thermopylae, very interesting. Our wonderful travel guide and our chauffeur invited us to their Athens’ restaurant, which was included in the price of the trip, the owner was most hospitable and served gorgeous food in abundance. I was dropped off at the pickup location. A truly remarkable day. I always make sure to have cat food with me, as, although most cats are looked after, there will be cats that need your attention.
