Description

Explore the most famous sights of ancient Greece on a full-day guided tour of Delphi from Athens with a zero carbon footprint. Learn about the Oracle, explore ancient ruins, such as the amphitheater and the Temple of Apollo, and ignite your imagination with the mythology of Delphi.

Depart from Athens and travel to Delphi, located on the spur of Mount Parnassus. On your way, admire the Greek countryside and cross into the land of King Oedipus, a tragic mythical hero whose fate was determined after receiving a message from the Oracle from Delphi.

Enjoy a relaxing coffee break in Livadia before arriving in Delphi. On arrival, visit the theater and enjoy the views of the surrounding mountains. Gain insight into the world of the Ancient Greeks as you step onto the Temple of Apollo and learn all about common ancient rituals.

After your visit to Delphi, continue to the picturesque village of Arachova, nestled on the slopes of Mount Parnassus. Take time to stroll through its charming streets, admire the traditional stone houses and scenic views, enjoy a leisurely lunch at a local taverna, and browse the quaint shops for handmade textiles, local cheeses, and other regional products before returning to Athens.
