Tour Description
Step into the heart of myth and history with our unforgettable, eco-friendly day trip to Delphi—once hailed as the “Center of the World” in ancient Greek mythology.
Depart from our central terminal and travel through the scenic plains of Boeotia, a land rich in agricultural heritage and timeless legends. As you pass the storied city of Thebes—birthplace of King Oedipus—your expert guide will share captivating tales from the ancient world. Enjoy a short, refreshing stop near the charming town of Levadia before ascending the slopes of Mount Parnassus.
Your first destination is the breathtaking archaeological site of Delphi, a crown jewel of Greece’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Skip the lines and follow your guide through an ancient sanctuary where oracles once shaped the fate of kings. Explore monumental landmarks such as the Treasury of the Athenians, the Athenian Stoa, the Polygonal Wall, the Monument of Platea, and the awe-inspiring Temple of Apollo—the spiritual heart of ancient Delphi.
Continue your exploration at the renowned Delphi Archaeological Museum. Stand before timeless masterpieces like the Naxian Sphinx, the intricate frieze of the Treasury of the Siphnians, and the exquisite bronze Charioteer of Delphi—a striking symbol of classical elegance and precision.
To complete your day, head to the picturesque mountain village of Arachova, perched on the slopes of Mount Parnassus. Wander through its quaint, cobblestone alleys, admire traditional architecture, and take in panoramic views. Relax over a delicious meal at a local taverna and discover handmade crafts, regional delicacies, and authentic Greek hospitality before your return to Athens.
