Fantastic guide. - 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.

Disappointed in the tour guide and/or content. - 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.
