“Great trip, amazing tour guide Michael kept us entertained the whole 10 hours! Loved Delphi ruins and the museum as well. Great thing was we were given 1,5 hour in the city of Arachova so we could explore a little bit and also eat lunch in one of the taverns there (we had no lunch option so I don’t know if the provided one was good or not). Overall great experience! Recommend 🫶🏼”
