Overview of your Athens tour:

Why this tour? It is authentic, personalized and I make sure we follow a different "route" than the rest of the tourists. I operate this private tour in a non-touristy way avoiding the delays, the crowds, the touristy food, and by adding some extra free experiences where possible and time permitting. You relax on a private car ride to Delphi and you see ALL the attractions like the village of Arachova, the main site of Delphi, the great museum, the second site with the temple of Athina Pronaia and finally -an important part of this private tour- the UNESCO world heritage monastery of Hosios Loukas. Athina Pronaia is the second site of Delphi and is often skipped (or missed!) by 90% of the visitors although is the most common feature shown when you google "Delphi". Lunch and drinks will be my treat for you to experience some really authentic Greek culinary delights in a non-touristy location observing the locals in their everyday life. An important part of all my tours.

Your Athens tour itinerary

Start 8 a. m. From your Athens accommodation or port or airport, we'll drive northwest towards Arachova town and Delphi. - Arachova town. Busy, touristy but worth a stop to quickly explore and take some photos. - Delphi site, Delphi museum, and Athina Pronaia. This is the main part of the tour. A demanding climb that you can do taking your time and enjoying some amazing views and ruins. * - Lunch at a special location away from tourism and with authentic food and drinks - Hosios Loukas monastery 1, 000 years old monument preserved to perfection and still active with its monks and also people using it for normal church services but also baptisms and weddings! Duration: 9 hours If you are a larger group, please get in touch with me. * You will be unaccompanied by me at this site since I'm not a licensed tour guide.
