Discover the ancient wonders of Delphi and explore the legendary Oracle.
Embark on a captivating, carbon-neutral day trip from Athens to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Delphi, a site once revered as the "Center of the World." Travel comfortably through the scenic plains of Boeotia, passing historic Thebes, and enjoy a brief stop near Levadia before reaching the legendary slopes of Mount Parnassus.
Explore the renowned archaeological site of Delphi, where your expert guide will bring to life the grandeur of the Temple of Apollo, the Athenian Treasury, and other ancient wonders. Continue to the Delphi Museum, home to masterpieces such as the Charioteer of Delphi and the Sphinx of Naxos.
End your journey with a scenic drive through Arachova, a picturesque mountain village known for its traditional crafts and fine wines, before returning to Athens filled with unforgettable memories. Notes: - What is the distance between Delphi and Athens and how long does the journey take?
The distance between Athens and Delphi is 182 km, and the journey by car takes approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes.
- What is the best time to visit the archaeological site of Delphi?
The best time to visit the archaeological site of Delphi is during spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October). These seasons offer mild weather, pleasant temperatures, and fewer crowds compared to the peak summer months. Spring also brings blooming flowers and lush vegetation, enhancing the site's natural beauty. If you visit in summer (July and August), be prepared for high temperatures and large crowds, especially at midday. Early morning or late afternoon visits during this period are recommended to avoid the heat. The winter months (November to March) are less crowded and the weather is cooler, but some facilities may have reduced hours, and certain areas may be less accessible due to weather conditions. However, this can be an excellent time for those who prefer a quieter experience.
- What is the policy regarding photography and video at the Delphi Archaeological Museum?
Visitors are generally permitted to take photos inside the Delphi Archaeological Museum, as long as they do not use flash or tripods, as these can damage sensitive artifacts and disturb other visitors. However, the use of selfie sticks may be restricted. For more accurate and up-to-date information on photography policies, it is advisable to consult the museum's official website or contact them directly before your visit.
Please arrive at the meeting point 15 minutes before the start time.
