Delphi from Athens

This tour will show you to the center of the ancient world as Delphi according to the ancient Greeks was ''the navel of the earth". This amazing site of extreme beauty will take your mind of the city for one day and will offer you another side of the Greek mythology hidden in the mountains.

The chosen Τours to Delphi start with a two-hour drive through the Greek countryside along fields, lakes and mountains. The stories and the myths that our drivers and guides will tell you along the way will reveal the unique energy of the site. Not long before our Tours to Delphi from Athens reach their destination, we will drive through Arachova, a beautiful little town which is a ski resort but gives the impression that came from the past. Then in one of the slopes of mount Parnassus, there lies Delphi and the oracle. The oracle was a temple dedicated to god Apollo where people or even cities could consult the god about important decisions which the god was giving through his priestess.

 

Athena Pronaia

The tholos of the sanctuary of Athena Pronaia visible from above is perhaps the most characteristic monument at Delphi and one of the most important buildings. This circular building that was built in 380 BC is of unknown purpose, a masterpiece of Classical architecture and the historians already from the ancient times do not refer to it as a temple. The whole area around it was part of the sacred site and you will be able to see the treasuries, where the gifts were kept, the sacred spring called Castalia, the theater and the stadium where the games to honor the god Apollo were taking place. In the museum the statues and the treasures found in the site will make your visit more special. Among the great jewelry and the ritual items you will admire Inioxos, a beautiful statue of a young boy which details force us to respect its creator. After your meal we will drive back to Athens.
