1 Day Delphi Tour

At the foot of Mount Parnassos, within the angle formed by the twin rocks of the Phaedriades, lies the Pan-Hellenic sanctuary of Delphi, which had the most famous oracle of ancient Greece. Delphi was regarded as the centre of the world. According to mythology, it is here that the two eagles sent out by Zeus from the ends of the universe to find the navel of the world met.

Drive through the fertile grain belt of Thebes, the town of Leivadia and the mountain resort Arachova famous for its colorful hand woven carpets and unique cheeses and sausages. You will stop at the Delphi Archeological site. In the museum you will view some of the most exquisite relics and statuary: the famed bronze Charioteer and the Omphalos, the stone representing the navel of Earth!

After the museum you will be led up the sacred way to the Athenian Treasury and the Temple of Apollo which housed the famous Oracle. After exploring Delphi you will be driven back to Athens via the same route.
