Description
Visit the Unesco Word Heritage site known as the Center of the World. Admire the impressive ruins of the famous ancient oracle. Enjoy your tour with a local knowledgeable and expert guide dedicated exclusively to you and your group. Upon arrival, meet your local guide and transfer
you in our fully air-conditioned vehicle towards Delphi. Our first stop is going to be the monastery of Osios Loukas, which represents the second golden age of Byzantine art (11th-12th century).
The navel of earth, Delphi
From ancient times Delphi was the attraction for many visitors and of course there were many reasons for this: the Oracle of Delphi became the heart of the ancient Greek world and the entire eastern Mediterranean, the Pythian Games, the Sanctuary of Apollo or just
because Delphi was the Navel of the Earth.
You will see the Roman Agora, walk along the Sacred Way, and view the monument of the Argive Kings, the Polygonal wall, the monument of Platea and the Temple of Apollo where the oracle resided. Above the Temple, you can visit the well preserved 3rd-century Theater. On the
lower slope of the mountain is the Tholos, a building whose exact purpose is unknown but architecturally speaking is considered one of the masterpieces of the ancient world.
Continue with the museum and its spectacular exhibits, among them colossal statues, golden offerings and a unique bronze charioteer. Enjoy a delicious meal in a traditional tavern.
On the way back to Athens stop at the picturesque village of Arachova.A mountainous village built on a cliff 900m above the sea level very close to the Parnassus ski resort.
After some free time for shoping and wandering around you will start your drive back to Athens.
