Day Trip out of Athens - Manos was a fantastic driver! The day was long but well worth it. Meteora was breathtaking and Delphi is a must see.

Our driver George I. was... - Our driver George I. was awesome and took us to the best local place for gyros! If you have limited time in Athens but want to see Meteora, Thermopylis and Delphi, this is the way to do it. The day trip is long and starts early but you get to Meteora when the monasteries first open so its not so crowded. Its not a tiring as its sounds as we were able to rest between sites and the drive was very comfortable. Also, George suggested and stopped for photo ops. The local Greek dinner was very good and gave us the opportunity to try local dishes that we didn't see at the restaurants in the touristy areas.

The best tour to Meteora and Delphi - Stathis made our day and was the best. Very kind all the time, so knowledgeable that he could give us a lot of explanations on everything and humerous. It was a very long trip so could be exhausting but thanks to Stathis we could enjoy much while resting well during the drive as well. The tour itself felt very suitable for people lacking time to visit northern side of Greece by themselves cause all the important spots were included for visit efficiently but still arranged in a way to enjoy each for a plenty amount of time. Definitely worth the price.

Engaging and Enlightening Trip - I can’t recommend this trip enough. The pick up and drop off were seamless and easy. The ride to Meteora and Delphi was informative, engaging, and even fun. That was due to our guide, Manos. He was our traveling professor. You can pepper him with questions about the historical sites, Greek mythology, Greek history, and contemporary Greece, and he will give thoughtful and nuanced answers. He was always respectful and would ask questions in return. The day was long, but not arduous. If you are tired or just want more time in Athens at night, you can always get your dinner to go. We did that. The trip lasted from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. As a whole, I recommend doing this trip rather than spending the 2 or 3 days it would take to see Meteora and Delphi. The efficiency of the trip is tough to beat.

Don’t miss this - This experience gave us a big taste of the geography and history of these historic areas in a very compressed timeframe. If I had time for a multi-day travel to cover these sites, I would have gone that way but in no way feel like I missed out on seeing the highlights. The areas are truly spectacular and should be high on everyone’s list of things to do in Greece. Our guide, Manos, was exceptional in his coverage of the information and a joy to spend the day with. He made this a most wonderful experience for both of us.

Three great sites in one day! - Great way to see three major sites — Meteora, Thermopylae, and Delphi in a single day from Athens. Car was comfortable, dinner at the end was great.
