We loved our guide. She did a great job in both the museum and the actual ruins. She was very informative and engaging with our group. Tour was well worth the money and I would recommend this tour to anyone.

Delphi is amazing. However, two hours was not nearly enough.And this was a private tour! While our guide was fairly knowledgeable, she rushed past many exhibits, especially in the museum, where we wanted to learn more about specific exhibits and possibly linger a bit longer to take them in. We had very little time to simply soak in the serenity of the site. We were constantly on the move. In addition, the tour didn’t even include the stadium. I really wanted to show that to my wife. (It’s roped off anyway, so it would have been a minimal experience, considering the further climb involved. I’m of Greek ancestry, and visited Delphi once before, long ago, so I had quite a bit of interest in the details. Others would probably enjoy the tour, as it was. In addition, I was disappointed we could not tour the gymnasium and the balance of the ruins below. Again, they were closed. Another problem was our arrival. The guide was supposed to meet us outside the gate. No one (three of them) at the ticket booth had any idea what I was showing them, in the way of your emails, tickets and/or vouchers. The same applied at the entryway to the museum. That was a seriously distressful situation. Our guide was inside the museum, PAST the metal detector at the entrance!!! As excited as I was to visit again and share this site with my wife, it was a real let down for me.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Dear Michael,
Thank you for your review. At the current time, the Stadium is closed due to risk of rockfall so it was not possible to see this during your visit so we understand your frustration but unfortunately this was not in our control. Our 2-Hour tour is a very standard time which thoroughly covers all the sites of both the Museum and Archaeological site at an easy pace with flexibility. Additional guiding time is not usually needed, but we would certainly have been happy to organise that for you beforehand if we knew you would need it.
The other sites you mention which you visited years ago are not part of the main Archaeological site and closed to the public. They are at a significant distance and located much further down the slopes of the hillside in rough terrain. At times in the past (perhaps when you visited years ago and the site was much different) a part of these was accessible to the public without tickets, signs or safety, by following a rough rocky & steep path through common land. We would be remiss in our description if we said that we could visit these sites and our itinerary is clearly written. These are wonderful additional sites/excavations that we hope will be developed for the public in the future and when this happens, we will certainly be adding them to our tour.
We also note that our guide communicated with you 20 minutes before your arrival and politely confirmed the meeting point (which is also clear in our description). We feel that you came expecting a tour based on your past visit years ago when you were able to just walk through land to see other areas (which are not now open) with more time, and that you seemed unhappy from the start. The current layout is much changed in the last years and also much improved, and this is what our tour is based on. We are sorry you did not read a little more carefully the description and enjoy more the site and our tour which should be and is a wonderful experience.

Georgia was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable. She made the visit to Delphi very special. She was very accommodating to our group and changing schedule

The guide gave us excellent explanations and pointed out highlights in the museum tour first. I am very impressed with the level of professionalism and knowledge that we are finding in all these licensed guides.

Our tour guide, Helen of Patras, was clearly an expert not only on Delphi but Greek History and a brilliant storyteller to boot. She brought the site alive. The two hours flew by.

The good: great to have the guide summarize what we were seeing, and she was helpful in taking pictures of our whole group
The not-so-good: the guide was a few minutes late and the experience seemed curt and not as warm and inviting as other experiences we had dwhile we were in Greece.
Eileen_N, Jun 2025
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and explained the history to us. All of our questions were answered. She maximized our time between the museum and the site. We would highly recommend this tour

I am 50/50 on recommending this tour — Georgia was really nice and provided great context and background while we toured the museum, which helped paint a picture and make the archeological site visit more meaningful (and I don’t think we could have gleaned the same level of detail from visiting the site on our own). But the tour overall was very rushed and she didn’t accompany us through most of the archaeological site-part of the tour. With that said, it’s hard to find a licensed guide that will meet you at the site if you have your own transportation to Delphi, so we enjoyed it overall but wished it was less rushed and more in depth.
Response from Host, May 2025
Dear Taylor,
We are really glad that your guide helped you with the context and historical background during your time with us. As all our reviews show, our guides do take great care with each and every group and your guide did spend the full two hours with you and covered all of the sites main temples and buildings, however we are sincerely sorry if you felt rushed in any way.
Many thanks again for visiting and warm wishes for the rest of your stay here in Greece!

The guide was excellent with a lot of knowledge.
She answered all our questions.
She made sure we don't miss any of the important artifacts (in the museum) and all that can be seen at the site.
She adopted the pace to ours - making sure we are comfortable at any time.
Since it was a private tour - it is a bit expensive - but worth it!

The tour was excellent. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the site, the history and how various aspects of faith and history have intertwined over the centuries. I have read a great deal and watched documentaries about Delphi but nothing can really explain the site and sheer awe of it all until you have been there. Even if you are being dragged along as part of a group, the views of the mountains and valley are totally worth it! It does involve walking, stairs and a trek up the hill. We did not find it strenuous but you should check with the site if you need accommodations. The inside part of the tour is accessible but I'm not sure about outside.

Wealth of knowledge and insight. Georgia explained the history of Delphi inside the museum very well with an easy personality. Kept our attention well. Then we walked ruins. Very insightful. Would highly recommend Georgia.

Georgina was an excellent guide! We are history nerds, and she was very patient with us as we asked a lot of different questions. The site itself is beautiful and well-preserved. This was one of the highlights of our trip!
