Additional Information

Get ready to explore the ‘hub of the universe’ or the ‘belly button of the Earth’, known as Delphi; the most superior Oracle in ancient times. As you traverse the ‘Sacred Way’ leading to Apollo’s Temple, you’ll encounter the money store of the Athenians where they placed their precious tributes to Apollo. As you ascend the mountain slope, your eye will be drawn to the Ancient Theatre and beyond that, the stadium where the Pythian Games took place. Descending from these locations, you’ll find Athena Pronoia’s temple, the Gymnasium, and the Castalia Spring. Make your journey complete with a visit to Delphi’s archaeological museum and a meal at a local eatery. Heading back to Athens, take some time to experience the charming town of Arachova and visit the remarkably preserved Middle Byzantine era’s Hosios Lucas Monastery, recognized as a part of UNESCO’s World Heritage.

Four wonderful days spent in Athens & the day trips - We - me, my wife and my son - had a great experience visiting Athens for four days from 17th Dec’19-Reg. We had booked the local Athens tour, day trips to Argolis & Delphi including the Airport transfers with Premium Greek Tours thro their website. We were little sceptical, whether they would come and pick us up at the Airport on the day of arrival as they never asked for any advance payment from my side. But to our delight we saw Mr Evangelos, from Premium Greek Tours standing with a placard with my name, just outside the arrival hall, and it was a big relief. The next day we went to Argolis for a day trip, the next day to Delphi and the fourth day the local tour of Athens. Mr Evangelos is fully aware of Greek history and also mythology. He gave us lot of information about each of the site we were to visit and helped us to plan the four day of stay very well taking the weather conditions at different places and we had a real real great time. Everything was good about Mr Evangelos and the Premium greek tours. We definitely had the best price for a similar itinerary and the personal tour. We are really satisfied with the services of Mr Evangelos. The tour was just fantastic and thank you Mr Evangelos.
