Greece · DELPHI & ARACHOVA TOURS

The 15 Best Delphi Day Trips from Athens

38 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.6 average  ·  from $30

Delphi is three hours out of Athens and worth every one of them: the oracle’s terrace, the museum with the bronze charioteer, and Arachova up the hill for lunch. These 15 differ on group size, guiding and whether you get the museum — priced and timed.

“We had a great day out! We were lucky to have beautiful weather. The young gentleman (sorry - I’m terrible with names) did an excellent job driving, explaining both ancient and modern history of Delphi and Greece and making sure we had plenty of recommendations for our free time. Delphi is quite good to see. The way the area nests into dramatic cliff faces and mountains is beautiful. Arachova is a lovely little town, make sure you go to a restaurant on the left (downhill side) and get a table over looking the view on a balcony!”

“Yota was fabulous! Her energy, knowledge, and humor made our experience very memorable! She really knows her history, and is exceptional at painting a picture in your mind of what happened throughout various periods of Greek culture. We give her two thumbs up and highly recommend her as a guide. We were in awe of the ruins of Delphi and her guided tour of the museum was amazing.!”

“Our guide, Evan, was well prepared with anti-itch stuff for a bee sting, cough drops for a lady with a persistent cough. He was a fount of information. He was polite and pleasant, and clear in his instructions. Lunch was good. It was fun to try wild boar! However, we were supposed to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel. We did get picked up at our hotel. However, on the way back, he said it was too difficult to drop us off at this time of day. So they would drop us off somewhere that was a short walk. When he dropped us off, he said it…”

Premium Delphi day trip from Athens with a licensed English guide, Delphi ruins, museum highlights, and Arachova lunch option.

“We just finished our tour to Delphi and absolutely loved it. Our guide, Vangelis, was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and engaging. The tour was very well organized, and the ride was smooth—even on the return trip despite heavy traffic, which was simply due to the holiday season and a farmers’ strike, not the tour itself. I also accidentally mixed up our tour date and missed our original booking. The company went above and beyond by kindly making a special exception and allowing us to join the tour the following day. I know this isn’t standard practice and goes against company policy, but it truly speaks to how much they care about…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 825 reviews · 2 days · from $271

Two UNESCO stops from Athens, guided Delphi and Meteora monasteries with hotel, meals, and an easy, comfortable bus ride.

“Our guide, Marianna was excellent! She knew the history and culture. She would tell us the stories of ancient times related to these areas. The bus driver Theodore drove with caution and experience. He checked traffic and changed course for the return trip to Athens. The stop at Delphi was perfect. Marianna took us through most of it then we had free time to explore or go to the Museum. The lunch restaurant the first day was wonderful and organized. The hotel was nice along with the provided dinner and breakfast buffets. The restaurant for the lunch stop for the return was terrible. The food was not very good and…”

4-day Classical Greece tour from Athens: Epidaurus, Mycenae, Olympia, Delphi and Meteora with hotels, guide, and entry tickets.

“The tour was good and the locations of the sites were truly impressive. Long driving times were tedious. The tour guide worked diligently but was not well informed and not easy to deal with. Rest stops were well timed but the lunch places served their hot food cold. This was not the fault of the tour but was an unfortunate feature. The hotels and and breakfasts and dinners in them were excellent.”

“My mum and I did this trip during our three night stay in Athens. Our tour guide, Effie, was extremely knowledgeable throughout the trip, retelling mythical stories, pointing out areas of interest and bringing the Temple of Apollo to life. The meeting point was very easy to find, the spot for lunch was beautiful and the short stop in Arachova was lovely! I would definitely recommend doing this trip!!”

Delphi Guided Small Group Day Tour from Athens

14.Delphi Guided Small Group Day Tour from Athens

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 445 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $108.84

Small group day trip from Athens to Delphi, with guided ruins, top museum finds, and Mt Parnassus views, plus hotel pickup.

“Although the tour was good, the van had very small seats. The tour claimed "small group" which usually means 8 persons. Here it apparently means 18-20. Viator notifies customers of any changes or pickup details less than 24 hours before the tour. The free cancellation ends 24 hours before the tour time. So even though they may know, months in advance that your pick up point cannot be at your hotel, you won't hear about it until it is too late for free cancellation. The pickup point is chosen for their convenience, not your.”
