Excellent, learning experience - Our guide, Elona made our tour fabulous. She went into great details on the history! She kept us all at a nice pace, so that we still had time to explore the museum and other grounds on our own.

Ancient History in Delos - Seeing the ruins of an ancient civilization from nearly 3000 years ago is an awe inspiring experience. The craftsmanship and intelligence to create such amazing buildings that are still to some degree standing today is humbling since I doubt many of the buildings in the US which are only a few hundred years old will be around another 2000 years from now. Allow adequate time to explore as there are only certain ferry times to the island and there are no significant services there.

Great tour with one hicup - The Delos tour was really nice and provided great background how folks lived in ancient times. The one hicup was that our pickup arrived 40 minutes late and the once dropped of he did not make it clear we're we were to meet the boat. We thought he told us the boat would arrive in a few minutes. Some of us waited and some continued to the other side of the basin. I did get a call which told us to walk around and then they kept saying hurry hurry when we already were. Anyway the tour was great but communication from the drop off driver could have been better.

Touring ancient Delos - Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She was also very patient with some challenges. The group was too big so it was difficult to keep it together. She had a person filming everything and was often in her face with his camera and kept asking her to repeat what she had just said. She handled that situation very well and much more calmly than I would have. She would subtly try to get him out of her face but he was persistent. Kudos to her.

Fabulous afternoon in Delos - The only way to really appreciate Delos is through a guided tour. Our guide, Ilona, was fantastic! She was extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. We learned so much more than we would have from a guide book. My only complaint was that the group was too large. With the narrow spaces, we were often too far in the rear to be seeing what she was describing. I would put a maximum cap of 15-20 per group.
