Description

Discover the spiritual heart of ancient Greece with a day trip from Athens to Delphi, combining history, nature and local culture. Start early in the morning from Athens and travel through the picturesque Greek countryside. First stop, the Lion of Chaeronea, an iconic monument honoring the memory of the Sacred Bands of Thebes. Keep going to Delphi, the sacred place of Apollo and Pythia. Explore the archaeological site and the museum, on your own or with an optional official guide, upon request. On the way back, enjoy a stop in Arachova, the cosmopolitan mountain village at the foot of Parnassus, known for its narrow streets, local products, and wonderful food. If you like, you can stop in Zeimenos to try local products like wine, cheese, and honey — an authentic Greek experience you'll remember. A perfect day trip for those who want to combine culture, flavors, and nature in just one day! The tour wraps up with a return to Athens, right back to where you started, offering a complete experience of history, nature, and Greek hospitality.
