What a great day out for our family. Dimitrius (aka Jim) picked us up promptly from our accomodation in Athens, and gave us a very enjoyable drive up to Delphi, telling us loads of stories and pointing out lots of interesting local sights on the way there. We stopped off at Thermopylae on the way. Very polite and professional service and highly recommended. So good in fact that we used Dimitrius again for another day trip and also our airport transfer at the end of the holiday!!
Thank you very much for your kind words,We hope to see you again in the future!!All the best to you and your family from Enjoy Greece Tours team!
