Nikos was an amazing driver! He was attentive and knowledgeable and the ride to Delphi, Arachova and the Koulas monastery were a wonderful day trip from Athens.

Mount Parnassus is a mountain in central Greece that towers above Delphi, north of the Gulf of Corinth. Mount Parnassus offers many advantages to the population of Greece. In peace, it possesses scenic views of the countryside and features olive groves and rolling hills. The mountain is also the location of historically, archaeologically, and culturally significant places of interest (such as Delphi). Recreationally, the slopes of Parnassus provide a medium for hiking (in the three warm seasons) and are skied in winter. Its melting snows provide water to the surrounding communities, reaching out as far as Athens. The mountain is composed of limestone, and its rock contains bauxite, ore that is rich in aluminum. In war, Parnassus has been a center of resistance if need be, providing cover and refuge to partisans.
Hosios Loukas is a historic walled monastery situated near the town of Distomo, in Boeotia, Greece. It is one of the most important monuments of Middle Byzantine architecture and art and has been listed on UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, along with the monasteries of Nea Moni and Daphnion. The monastery of Hosios Loukas is situated at a scenic site on the slopes of Mount Helicon. It was founded in the early 10th century AD by the hermit, Venerable (Greek: Hosios) Luke of Steiris (Greek: Lukas), whose relics are kept in the monastery to this day. The main shrine of the monastery is the tomb of St. Luke, originally situated in the vault, but later placed at the juncture of the two churches. The monastery derived its wealth (including funds required for construction) from the fact that the relics of St. Luke were said to have exuded myron, a sort of perfumed oil which produced healing miracles.
Arachova is a mountain town and a former municipality in the western part of Boeotia, Greece, originally called Karyai (also spelled Caryae). Its name is of South Slavic origin and denotes a place with walnut trees. It is a tourist destination due to its location in the mountains, its traditions, and its proximity to the town of Delphi. Arachova has a panoramic view, uphill small houses, and the cobbled streets show a picturesque architecture. The town center includes a huge and steep cliff, the Bell Tower, covered with dense ivy. At the top of the tower is a large 10m height clock. Arachova is famous for its black wine, its "brusque", the colorful textiles, carpets and rugs, handicrafts, and woodcut creations as wel
Arrival at the archaeological site of Delphi after a 2,5 hours trip. Free time for a walk at: - sanctuaries of Apollo and Athena Pronaia - ancient stadium and theater Duration: 30 minutes
The tholos at the sanctuary of Athena Pronoia (Ἀθηνᾶ Πρόνοια, “Athena of forethought”) is a circular building that was constructed between 380 and 360 BC. It consisted of 20 Doric columns arranged with an exterior diameter of 14.76 meters, with 10 Corinthian columns in the interior. The Tholos is located approximately a half a mile (800 meters) from the main ruins at Delphi. Three of the Doric columns have now been restored, making it the most popular site at Delphi for tourists to take photographs. The gymnasium, which is half a mile away from the main sanctuary, was a series of buildings used by the youth of Delphi. The building consisted of two levels: a stoa on the upper level providing open space, and a palaestra, pool and baths on lower floor. These pools and baths were said to have magical powers, and imparted the ability to communicate to Apollo himself.
Delphi Archaeological Museum is one of the principal museums of Greece and one of the most visited. It is operated by the Greek Ministry of Culture. Founded in 1903, it has been rearranged several times and houses the discoveries made at the Panhellenic sanctuary of Delphi, which dates from the Late Helladic (Mycenean) period to the early Byzantine era. Organized in fourteen rooms on two levels, the museum mainly displays statues, including the famous Charioteer of Delphi, architectural elements, like the frieze of the Siphnian Treasury, and ex-votos dedicated to the sanctuary of Pythian Apollo, like the Sphinx of Naxos. The exhibition floor space is more than 2270m2, while the storage and conservation rooms (mosaics, ceramics). Delphi’s magnificent modern museum, 500m east of town, perfectly complements the ancient site alongside. Which you visit first doesn’t matter, but the treasures collected here will bring your image ancient Delphi to life. Rich and powerful petitioners flocked
The Temple of Apollo, god of music, harmony, light, healing, and oracles occupied the most important and prominent position in the Delphic Panhellenic Sanctuary. The edifice with the partially restored colonnade visible today dates to the 4th century BC; it is the third temple built at the same place. The famous oracle, the Pythia, operated inside the temple, the location chosen, according to one tradition, due to a sacred chasm beneath the site emitting vapors, which were inhaled by the Pythia. Some ancient writers state that the Pythia then entered a state of delirium and uttering inarticulate cries, which were then turned into equivocal oracles by the priests.
The Greeks told many stories to explain the origins of Delphi. The site was originally sacred to Gaia (also known as Ge), the ‘Mother Goddess’ whose cult centred on the Korykeon Cave, high on Mt Parnassos. After slaying a snake or she-dragon (known as Pytho) here, Apollo took the local name of Apollo Pythios. For a thousand years, pilgrims flocked to his sanctuary for guidance. The height of its fame came between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE, after the Amphictyonic League, a federation of 12 tribal states, took control of the sanctuary following the First Sacred War (595–586 BCE). As an autonomous state, Delphi earned great prosperity from benefactors including the kings of Lydia and Egypt, and the Roman emperor Hadrian. Nominally neutral, it was a locus of political power.
Αn intriguing architectural marvel nestled within the archaeological site of Delphi. Tholos provides us with a window into the ancient world and the rich tapestry of beliefs and traditions. The Tholos of Athena Pronaia is a circular building with a distinctive architectural design, featuring a ring of Doric columns surrounding a central chamber. Built in the 4th century BCE, this unique structure served as a sanctuary dedicated to Athena Pronaia, a variant of the goddess Athena worshipped in Delphi. Stand before the elegant columns and intricate stonework of the Tholos and imagine the awe and reverence it inspired in ancient worshippers. In the shadow of Mount Parnassus and overlooking the sacred precincts of Delphi, this sanctuary would have been a focal point for religious rituals, offerings, and oracular consultations.
Treasury of the Athenians built to commemorate victory at Battle of Marathon From the entrance of the upper site, continuing up the slope on the Sacred Way almost to the Temple of Apollo, are a large number of votive statues, and numerous so-called “treasuries.” These were built by many of the Greek city-states to commemorate victories and to thank the oracle for her advice which was thought to have contributed to those victories. These buildings held the offerings made to Apollo; these were frequently a “tithe” or tenth of the spoils of a battle. The most impressive is the now-restored Athenian Treasury, built to commemorate their victory at the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC. The Siphnian Treasury was dedicated by the city of Siphnos whose citizens gave a tithe of the yield from their silver mines until the mines came to an abrupt end when the sea flooded them. One of the largest of the treasuries was that of Argos
The ancient theatre at Delphi was built further up the hill from the Temple of Apollo, giving spectators a view of the entire sanctuary and the valley below. It was originally built in the 4th century BC. The koilon (cavea) leans against the natural slope of the mountain whereas its eastern part overrides a little creek that led the water of the fountain Cassotis right underneath the temple of Apollo. The orchestra was initially a full circle, with a diameter measuring 7 meters around (23 feet). The rectangular scene building ended up in two arched openings, of which the foundations are preserved today. The theater at Delphi could accommodate about 4,500 spectators. its façade was decorated with scenes from Hercules’ life in relief. Further repairs and transformations took place in the 2nd century AD. Pausanias mentions that these were carried out under the auspices of Herod Atticus. In antiquity, the theater was used for the vocal and musical contests which formed part of the Pythia
Stoa of the Athenians The stoa, or open-sided, covered porch, is located along the base of the polygonal wall retaining the terrace on which the Temple of Apollo sits. The stoa opened to the Sacred Way. The nearby presence of the Treasury of the Athenians suggests that this quarter of Delphi was used for Athenian business or politics, as stoas are generally found in market-places. Although the architecture at Delphi is generally Doric, a plain style, in keeping with the Phocian traditions, which were Doric, the Athenians did not prefer the Doric. In the Ionic order they are floral and ornate, although not as much as the Corinthian. The remaining porch structure contains seven fluted columns, unusually carved from single pieces of stone (most columns were constructed from a series of discs joined together). The inscription on the stylobate indicates that it was built by the Athenians after their naval victory over the Persians in 478 BC, to house their war trophies.
Delphi’s Hippodrome Once Site of Chariot Races It was at the Pythian Games that prominent political leaders, such as Cleisthenes, the tyrant of Sikyon, and Hieron, the tyrant of Syracuse, competed with their chariots. The hippodrome where these events took place was referred to by Pindar, and this monument was sought by archaeologists for over two centuries. In 2012, Professor of Classical Archaeology Panos Valavanis declared that he had found the site of the hippodrome at “Gonia,” at the west end of the olive grove at Delphi, nearly 1.5 km northeastern of Itea, running parallel and adjacent to the Kefali mountain range, between the Aghioi Anargyroi and Gla hills.
Stop At: Delphi, Delphi, Phocis Region, Central Greece Free time for lunch at a traditional Greek tavern with your friends or shopping at Arahova Village
Serpentine Column Immediately east, the replica of the Serpentine Column, or Tripod of the Plataeans, was erected in 2015. The original bronze column commemorated the Greeks who defeated the Persian Empire at the Battle of Plataea (479 BCE). Removed by Constantine the Great in AD 324, it now resides at the Hippodrome of Constantinople, in modern Istanbul.
Free time for lunch at a traditional Greek tavern with your friends and family or shopping.
THE POLYGONAL WALL This retaining wall was built to support the terrace housing the construction of the second temple of Apollo in 548 BC. Its name is taken from the polygonal masonry of which it is constructed. At a later date, from 200 BC onward, the stones were inscribed with the manumission contracts of slaves who were consecrated to Apollo. Approximately a thousand manumissions are recorded on the wall. The sacred spring of Delphi, called the Castalian Spring, lies in the ravine of the Phaedriades. The preserved remains of two monumental fountains that received the water from the spring date to the Archaic period and the Roman, with the latter cut into the rock.

We decided to go to Delphi last minute. We had our boat to Crete leaving at 22:00. So we made it as our day trip to Delphi ( started around 10:00) We feel incredibly lucky that we booked it with Chris. First of all , I can tell that people missing SO much if they aren’t going to Delphi and Monastery Hosios Loukas. It is definitely a must. But I’m convinced that if not for Chris we wouldn’t have such a great experience. He is knowledgeable , friendly, super patient ( we traveled with 3 teenagers) , funny, kind and overall great person to spend a day exploring Delphi. It is about 6-7 hours of road trip back and forth from Athens and Chris was telling history and stories all the way. Which made it possible for the time to fly by. His way of presenting history is very in depth yet easy to comprehend ( not boring). He engaged kids in conversations which made it more interactive. He has comfortable car with AC, plenty of water and his suggestion for a restaurant was spot on. The incredible view while enjoying local food! ( buy mountain tea herb if you are into good food). I usually buy local spices and herbs, not magnets on refrigerator. So 2 musts : Chris and Delphi. Highly recommend.

He was timely and professional. Following our Delphi experience, he took us to the perfect little tavern for lunch with a spectacular view. Thank you, Christo, for making our Greece experience so memorable.

We had an amazing experience with Yomadic Agency on our Delphi tour, and our guide Chris truly made the day unforgettable. From the moment he picked us up, Chris was friendly, kind, entertaining, and incredibly welcoming to our whole family. He spoke excellent English and made everyone feel included in the conversations throughout the day. What really stood out was how knowledgeable he was — not only about Greek history, but also biblical history, which made the experience even more meaningful for us. He was intelligent, engaging, and made every stop interesting and enjoyable. Even when schedules and timing had to shift because of a private guide situation, Chris handled everything professionally and smoothly without ever making us feel rushed or stressed. He genuinely wanted us to have the best experience possible. He also went above and beyond in the little things — even making sure my husband and son were comfortable after getting into the hot springs with wet shorts for the car ride back! He made us feel safe, cared for, and completely at ease the entire trip. If you book with Yomadic Agency, absolutely ask for Chris. We would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Greece!

The Private Delphi Day Trip to the Ancient Oracle and scenic mountain viewpoints was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Christós was a great driver and guide—extremely knowledgeable about the history and mythology of Delphi, very thoughtful, and loads of fun to spend the day with. The itinerary was well planned, including a beautiful stop at a monastery along the way. The private format made the day feel relaxed and personalized, allowing us to go at our own pace. The private tour was absolutely worth it, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Athens.

As part of our trip to Greece in 2024 we wanted to include a return trip to Delphi for other family members as they had not visited Greece before. When looking for an ideal service we immediately considered Yomadic from past experience and from the moment we first met our driver "Christos" we were very pleased. Christos made every effort to ensure we had the best possible experience that was also tailored to meet our needs and schedule. Over the day we visited Hosios Loukas, Arachova, Delphi and enjoyed the view of the picturesque countryside along the way with stops for refreshments whenever required. We had not been to Hosios Loukas before and would highly recommend this stop. The day was unrushed and ended with a visit to Paradise Taverna in Athens for a dinner that was fit for a king but reasonably priced that was a perfect conclusion to a very enjoyable day for all of us. We highly recommend this tour and others. Yomadic's staff have always been very friendly and willing to accommodate our requests without hesitation and open to suggest designations that are best suited for us with flexibility larger coach tours cannot provide.

I loved this experience. It was so great having a private driver pick us up directly from our air b n b. He had little cakes and juices/water waiting in the car. He asked if we wanted to stop for coffee on the way which was a nice touch. We went to a beautiful ancient Basillica Church of St Luke before heading to Delphi. We never felt rushed. We spent an hour at the church and 2 hours at Delphi. Lunch was in a beautiful spot with great food and view. We then drove through a mountain ski village on the way home. The value for money was fantastic. We booked a second tour and got a discount but sadly had to cancel due to the airlines going on strike and our flights being cancelled. This happened an hour before our tour. Andres was very understanding and had his driver assist me to go to various travel agencies in town to rebook my flight. He offered to continue with the tour and then drop us off at airport. Unfortunately we could not get a flight for later that night so we just cancelled. Andres offered to reschedule our tour for the day we got back to Athens. We agreed to this but unfortunately the Temple of Poseidon was closed due to Easter holidays. We got a full refund. Would definitely recommend this company!!!

Just beautiful scenery. Thank you, Costas!
Not as expected; Expensive private transportation, not tour.

The ONLY good thing about this highly expensive private transportation service to Delphi was conversation about Greece & Life with the driver, who was wonderfully friendly and refreshing man. I am sorry to say, however, from standpoint of what we expected, it was absolutely not. Given that he was not a tour guide, and we had to pay to explore Delphi on our own without a tour guide, it was ultimately extremely unsatisfying… merely four times the cost of an actual guided tour, and in a car that was not a luxury Mercedes, but just a standard taxi without Wi-Fi.
Fun day trip

This was our second tour with Andreas and he again did not disappoint. Delphi was INCREDIBLE. The drive was smooth and pleasant with beautiful scenery and an in depth explanation of the area and the history. The Temple of Apollo was breathtaking and the city was like a dream. Again we were impressed with his professionalism and awesome personality. Andreas recommended a restaurant for us that was the best food we have had the entire trip (get the fish and lamb - trust me) and extremely affordable. It was a perfect finish to our trip to Greece.
Great way to experience the countryside & spectacular historical site

It far exceeded expectations! In addition to the great lesson of history and mythology provided by our guide Christos we visit historical sites and the beautiful museum of Delfos. The landscape by itself is a spectacle apart, surprised us very much.
Amazing (magnificent Byzantine monastery and mythical Delphi).

Themos was a great driver and made us have an amazing day. He picked us up in front of our apartment and we left to visit the monastery of Hosios Lukasha (Byzantine monastery of the 11th century, mosaics and crazy frescoes!!). Along the way, Themos told us about the culture of the region. After the monastery, head to the sanctuary of Delphi. We visited the museum and the archaeological site (combined ticket purchased on site). The museum is very nice and the archaeological site is really good, but take good shoes, it goes up😁. Then Themos took us to a local restaurant. And where I usually mistrust, here I was pleasantly surprised. Everything was excellent and we felt it was homemade (especially pasta). And price level for the day, that seems really suitable to me. The day lasted almost 10:00!! So really, I recommend this visit and again thank you to Themos.
Delphi spectacular
