Delphi and Meteora Private Day Trip from Athens including Dinner

2.Delphi and Meteora Private Day Trip from Athens including Dinner

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 200 reviews · 14 hours (approx.) · from $402

Leave Athens at 6:00 am in a private Mercedes with a driver-guide such as Dallas, Paddy, Marselo, or Christos. Visit Thermopylae, Meteora’s cliff-top monasteries, Delphi, and Arachova, then finish with moussaka, Greek salad, tzatziki, drinks, and baklava at a local taverna. The day is long, flexible, and heavy on mountain roads.

“I've travelled through many means of transportation, for example uber, metro etc to visit monuments all over Greece! This trip was one of the best decisions that I've made; having a private spacious vehicle with a knowledgeable driver/tour guide for a 10+ hrs itinerary (long ride). A shout out to Dallas for making our Grecian visit memorable. You can sleep in peace and stop anywhere you like and pick your own tour itinerary. The alternative way to get to the these places are with others on a bus that I find to be uncomfortable and inconvenient. So I highly recommend for small intimate groups and families !”

“We had an amazing journey with Fotis as our guide. He took us along the Athens Riviera to the Temple of Poseidon and the views were incredible. We had coffee and a snack at the beginning of our trip and later stopped at a local seaside cafe for a delicious lunch. He shared a lot of information along the way, not just about the history of the places we visited but also about Hellenic culture, tradition and lifestyle. It was a real view into life in Greece.”

“We had an unbelievable day trip from Athens. From start to finish, Niko provided us with perfect 10/10 hospitality. I was traveling with my partner, and even though we didn’t know the other tour members at the start Niko had us all chatting old friends by the end. The stops were times perfectly with plenty of opportunity to enjoy and explore the two featured spots, along with a few scenic photo stops. The beach stop was breathtaking, and it’s a place we never would have found on our own. Could have spent all day there! Niko made a coffee stop on the way and gave us an opportunity to change,…”
