Reviews
It was a perfect day tour with no hassles. The Key tours office is a 3 minutes walk from Acropoli metro after taking the right from exit gate. The guide was super knowledgeable and she entertained us with mythological stories behind the major landmarks.
It was a full bus tour that day, the guide was ok and the weather was not stable (every 5mins it drizzled rain) but mind you the crowd plus the rain, so everyone was squeezing for cover, and in the museum couldn’t really enjoy ourselves because it was so packed and constantly be searching for our guide, so we didn’t get to really appreciate the pieces, it was just touch and go. Lunch was good. Arachova was just a quick stop for photo, would be nice if we get to explore but oh well time limits.
The grab-and-go itinerary is very convenient and makes the trip more flexible. The meeting point is conveniently located next to the Acropolis, allowing me to easily reach Delphi without worrying about transportation. The tour guide is very considerate and kind, making our trip very enjoyable and allowing us to adjust our physical strength and retain our energy to continue visiting Athens!
It's a long drive, but there are rest stops for bathroom breaks. The tour guide is very professional and thoroughly explained the history of the Delphi ruins, as well as the museum's collection. I found it very rewarding! Highly recommend this tour!
The tour guide was most helpful. the Keytours was also helpful in guiding where to meet when we reached. Be warned there is a hill to climb but it’s worth.
It rained heavily on the way, but after arriving at the Temple of Apollo, the rain stopped, as if heaven helped us to calm down and talk to the millennium ruins. Although the ruins were severely damaged, the scale of the site and the museum exhibits show the magnificence, grandeur and exquisite details of that time.
The drive from downtown Athens to Delphi took about 3 hours, so it was nice that the tour guide spent much of the journey there explaining the historical context of the sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi, as well as providing relevant and interesting information about things we saw along the way and about Greece, ancient and modern. On the day we went, we could not visit the Athena Pronaia because the area was cordoned off for safety following a recent rockfall. The upside of this was that we had to take a different route to get to Delphi than the one usually taken, and as we wended our way through the mountains we were treated to spectacular views of the mountains and sea. If there is one small downside to the tour itinerary, it is that the time available to explore the museum, which contains some beautiful artefacts, was a little too short. Though this is understandable from a practical standpoint given the long drive. Lunch was at a homely Greek restaurant in the nearby town and was satisfying .
I am glad that I joined the tour. Mariana was absolutely amazing and enthusiastic. however the lunch hour was too long. I wish they have shorten it, and gave us more time at the site to explore instead.
Delphi is definitely worth a visit. The overall arrangements were good, the itinerary was rich, and the time management and meals were acceptable. The tour guides explained everything clearly.
Amazing ruins, great guide, beautiful views. Perfect Greek history snapshot. Highly recommended !
