“Delphi is an amazing experience and possibly the most evocative of ngelaall the visits available from Athens: no matter how many times I have heard these stories, seeing where it all took place and with the excellent descriptions from our guide Angela, it was truly special. It was unfortunate that we were delayed for hours in the Athens traffic on our return - likely a regular occurrence - but that was out of anyone's control and, whilst testing my patience, did not detract from this superb experience.!”

“The museums and old town were amazing! The audio guide for the museum doesn't flow very well and guide you around much. Needs to be more descriptive on where things are because stuff that got spoken about at the start were on opposite sides of the room but it's described as if they're near each other.”
