Nikolaos was our guide and driver. He was great Very informative and accommodating. We were picked up at our Airbnb, and dropped off there at the end of our tour. We learned a great deal about the Greco-Persian Wars, saw some amazing historical artifacts at the museums we visited (especially the ones at Delphi and Thebes), and were dazzled by the beautiful scenery of mountains, seashore and picturesque villages and towns. The overnight accommodations were quite good with a fine nearby restaurant for dinner. The second day was an added bonus when we got to meet and travel with Nikolaos' wife, Angela. I highly recommend the outing.
For anyone interested in Classical Greek history I HIGHLY recommend this tour! The driver (Nicholas) was very pleasant and very knowledgeable of the roads of Greece, as well as Greek history. Truly enjoyable and highly recommended!!!
Hello Sivan. Thanks a lot for your kindnesses
If you have a passion for history, you must choose this tour! For just two days, we covered many historical sites and museums. Unlike the regular day trips to Delphi, this is well paced with an overnight in the charming village of Arachova. The views alone were worth the trip. Nikos, our driver, was helpful and accommodating, like an old friend! Meals not included, but the food in all the recommend restaurants was excellent. All in all, worth the money for a private tour.
Hi Chris Thanks a lot for your kindness
