As good as predicted! - Bill was great - he got us to Delphi and back in great time, and was very knowledgeable. We had a wonderful lunch with spectacular views down the valley to the sea, and delicious food. Delphi itself was wonderful - we all loved the walk around the site, even in the heat, and agreed that the museum was spectacular

We had a great driver and... - We had a great driver and tour guide George on our day trip to Delphi. He was very knowledgeable and made the drive very entertaining. Took us to a great restaurant for lunch and got to walk around 2 towns near Delphi. Highly recommend LS tours and transfers.

Superior way to reach Delphi!! - My husband is an archaeologist and we’ve both visited Delphi previously, but we wanted to share this amazing site with our young children (ages seven and ten) in a way that was flexible to meet our needs. Niko really delivered!! He arrived on time, greeted us warmly and professionally, and made sure we were comfortable (including water!) in the absolutely spotless modern van. On our way to Delphi, he shared the perfect amount of information with us and offered rest stops for the kids. We arrived efficiently and spent an enjoyable two hours at the site while Niko made lunch reservations. When we finished our leisurely exploration, Niko met us with ice cold water (it was over 100 degrees the day we visited) and delivered us to a delightful lunch at a small, family-owned restaurant near Delphi. The food was great and the view spectacular!! After lunch, we stopped at a scenic vista then headed back to Athens. Thanks to Niko’s expert driving, we even made it back to Athens with little traffic delay and with plenty of time for an evening swim. We would absolutely recommend Niko without reservation to anyone looking to visit Delphi without a formal guide.

Wonderful time in Delphi - My husband and I had a wonderful tour in Delphi. Our driver, George, made the day special. He was extremely attentive to our needs, very knowledgeable and informative, and took great care of us! He’s a great (safe) driver and very pleasant and fun to talk with! George made the entire day and journey very enjoyable! And by the way, the history and scenery in Delphi are both spectacular! You will enjoy!

Sign Up! An Amazing Day! - There were 8 people in our group with an age range of 14-82yo. George Remoundos, our driver, arrived early and was so engaging with our family. He pointed out Athens sites as we drove out of the city as well as stopping at beautiful sites along the drive to Delphi. My dad really enjoyed chatting with George about the history of Greece and how the city of Athens has changed in recent years. The drive was beautiful. Delphi was amazing with so much education in the museum that prepared you for the site exploration. Afterwards, George took us to the BEST lunch place - Vakhos where everything was delicious. The view was incredible. It was a great day. To top things off, I left my sunglasses in the van. George went out of this way to find me in Athens the following day. He is a safe driver, knowledgeable and extremely kind.

Excellent Private Day Trip to Delphi - We booked this private transport for our family of 8 to Delphi on barely a day's notice, but Panos responded right away. He provided names and phone numbers for licensed guides at Delphi who also promptly responded to arrange where and when to meet, and how purchase our entry tickets to the Delphi ruins and museum. Our driver, George Remoundos, was simply outstanding! George was professional, thoughtful, had an immaculately clean vehicle, and was in constant communication with us through the day to arrange pick ups and drop offs for the visits to the ruins and museums. He would be there immediately when we notified him we were ready, and his vehicle was comfortable and had super strong AC which we really appreciated in the hot weather! George provided information about the areas we drove through, as well as historical and mythological stories about the region, which gave our visit to Delphi even more depth and context when we reached the Delphi ruins. George anticipated our needs and provided cold water, worked in a stop for breakfast and coffee on the way out to Delphi, and made reservations for lunch at a family restaurant with a gorgeous view and even better food before we returned on the long drive to Athens. We always felt safe and well-informed, so we could enjoy our day. It is a long drive to Delphi and due to our family having both kids and elders, we move slower than most travelers. Thus, this private tour was perfect for our family, and allowed us to relax and enjoy the the visit to Delphi at the right pace for our group. Visiting Delphi was a bucket list trip that George and Panos helped us achieve. Thank you!

Delphi our highlight - This was the highlight of being in Athens. Our driver,Alex, was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, so helpful, and showed us places we would never have been by ourselves. Alex is, in our opinion, a great asset to your company. Don't lose him. Regards, Ron and Suzanne
