Description

Explore one of the most famous sites of classical Greece on a day trip from Athens to magical Delphi. Famous for its theater, Temple of Apollo and ancient ruins, Delphi was considered the center of the earth and the universe, and played a central role in the classical Greek world.

After taking a scenic drive through Levadia and Arachova (famous for its bright multi-colored carpets), you'll arrive in Delphi at around noon. During your visit to Delphi you'll tour the archaeological site and its museum of treasures, including the unique bronze Charioteer, and proceed along the Sacred Way to the Athenian Treasury.

After an optional lunch at a hotel, you'll visit the famous Temple of Apollo and the Castalia Spring, before returning to Athens with another stop at Levadia en route.

    There is definitely an indescribable feeling at Delphi. One feels a certain mystique and energy in the air. The ruins are breathtaking, the museum and artifacts are superb and a tour is recommended.
