Private Delphi and Hosios Loukas Monastery - Great Lunch and Drinks Included
Our tours are about people and we have always been good with people! We skip the obvious places and we do not compromise quality to create a "cheaper' tour.
You will experience some of the most stunning archaeological sites that Greece has to offer, including the Temple of Apollo, Athina Pronaia & the Stadium. Transporting you back through the ages, this tour will also bring you to Arachova, a village built out of stone, and Osios Loukas, a 1,000 years old monastery at a beautiful location to treat you to a coffee.
The convenience for your group of 1-8 people is unbeatable, pick-up and drop-off right at your Athens hotel. You can leave all the planning up to your driver/tour leader; an expert in creating a great experience for you.
* The tour is truly private, not only in a small group.
* Expect punctuality, friendliness, and professionalism.
* Eat and drink what the locals eat away from the touristy spots.
* Includes a stop at Athina Pronaia, a site at Delphi that many visitors miss
