Itinerary
One of the most important archaeological sites in Greece.
After meeting your Spanish-speaking guide in Athens, hear tales about the ancient Greeks and their lives in Delphi while traveling to the town by luxury air conditioned bus. Pass through the towns of Levadia and Arachova, famous for their production of brightly colored carpets, and arrive in Delphi around midday. Head inside the UNESCO-listed Archeological Site of Delphi, and explore the intriguing ruins with your guide while learning about famous monuments such as the Temple of Apollo.
Next, make your way inside Delphi Archeological Museum and explore the veritable treasure trove at leisure. Home to countless artifacts and relics, the museum consists of some 15 rooms arranged in chronological order. Be sure to check out the bronze Charioteer of Delphi and the Sphinx of Naxos.
Pass by: Enjoy a delicious Greek meal at a traditional restaurant and then begin your way back to Athens. Pass by the picturesque mountain village of Arachova, built on the south slopes of Parnassus, well known for its attractive hand-woven carpets, rugs and quilts, as well as for its wine and cheese (short photo stop).

Traveler reviews
Excellent cost benefit
Despite the rain , the guide knew how to drive very well . Highlight for the restaurant and the driver who is an exceptional pianist, animating the ride. Parabéns
Kimon, excellent guide!!!!
We were looking at different options to make this getaway to Delphi with guide in Spanish, finally decided on Key Tours and we are very happy to have met Kimon. Throughout the trip you will find a historical immersion with many quotes and references (perfectly chosen), which you also read with a lot of feeling. Without a doubt, the perfect guide for those planning to visit, will not regret it!!!!
NICE EXCURSION WITH A PERFECT GUIDE
After the trip to Greece, Athens in particular, we can only comment on the stay and activities. Among these, the day trip to Delphi has its pluses and minuses. At least it is the distance that the place is located and that forces to be about three hours en route until reaching, and of course, another three hours back. However, and here comes the good thing, is that with a guide like Kimon or Simon in Spanish, the tour becomes more bearable with his explanations not only of Greek history, but of Greek mythology, art and culture, with such detail and precision that it is enjoyable and before you know it you are already in the destination. There he continues with the explanations visiting the place and then the museum, to end up placidly in the restaurant, which is also right with the menu. Perhaps the only thing but besides the distance is the short time to visit the ruins and the museum. Otherwise, the excursion is highly recommended
Very satisfactory experience
To begin with, having you picked up and returned to specific pickup points is a detail we very much appreciated. The tour we really liked with Kimon (our guide) as he left no detail to explain with a touch of humor that made the day very entertaining. We would definitely repeat with KeyTours.
Kimon the best guide
Excursion very productive and entertaining because our guide Kimon moved us practically to that time with his explanations and stories. Recommended 100%. Thank you very much !! :))
