From Athens: Delphi Full Day V.R. Audio Guided Tour

4.Delphi Full Day V.R. Audio Guided Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 3,028 reviews · 10 hours · from $30

You’ll travel from Athens to Delphi by air-conditioned bus, then explore the sanctuary, museum, and mountain villages with a multilingual audio guide and VR device. Guides such as George, Angela, Sotiris, and Griselda add history and humor during the ride. Expect a long day, plenty of walking, and about 2.5 hours at Delphi.

“Our guide, Christopher, was very kind and patient. He made sure we knew exactly what the pick up area looked like. More exact description of what part of the plaza the pick up area was located in would have been helpful, but we found it. Delphi is a hike! The audio tour is OK, but limited. Also hard to see VR display in direct sunlight. Lunch was great and so was our driver! Transportation alone (which is mostly what you get) was worth the price. Great option if you want to see this site as a day trip.”

I’ve had the privilege to travel quite a bit and this museum is one of the top ones that I’ve been to around the world. The relics, artifacts and history is mind blowing. Equally as amazing is the area underneath the museum, where ruins were found and preserved.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 828 reviews · 4 - 6 hours · from $69

Use one combo ticket to visit Knossos Palace and the Heraklion Archaeological Museum in Crete. You’ll explore Minoan rooms, myths, artifacts, and Roman-era pieces with optional Clio Muse audio tours in English, German, French, Spanish, or Italian. No guide or transport is included, so plan your route and phone setup before arriving.

“It was good, but with one or two small problems. First, I found the audio tour of Knossos cut off a bit before the end - I think it hadn't downloaded fully. It would be good to provide some visual aid to see that the download has completed. Also, the audio narration was clear and well-read, but frankly almost all foreign and foreign-derived words and names were hopelessly mispronounced. The effect was ridiculous - given the price of the tour, you would think they would check pronunciation before publishing! It's a matter of quality control. Also the map is not easy to read. The best thing is having a pre-booking…”
