Meteora was good, Delphi was another ruin. If you are into history, it’s good for your else can skip. Key tours kept us moving from one bus to another for this trip with our luggage. Lot of hassle. They took us to restaurants in the middle of nowhere with no other choices. Horrible food, not many items for vegetarians. Even non vegetarian items were bland and tasteless. Good idea to just take a 1-day train tour by yourself to meteora to same money and time.

We had a wonderful time on both tours 5/30-5/31 2019. Our Delfi tour was very friendly and knowledgeable and made the tour so enjoyable. Then we switched and had Dimitri for the rest of the tour, into Kalambaka and on to Meteora. He was excellent too, and we so enjoyed our time with him. We stayed at the Meteora Hotel which was excellent as well. Highly recommend this tour with these guides. The sites were crowded, but the guides got us thru much more easily than we could have done on our own. Thank you so much! Whole family enjoyed

Absolutely awesome trip! I agree with the other reviews that more time should be given for Delphi Museum. Your ticket covers it, so go see it for at least 30-45 minutes. Start the trip 30 minutes early or Key should be more efficient in the morning loading busses.. They wasted 45 minutes loading people. Everyone should boycott this tour until they add it at a fundemental part of the tour. Maybe cut the icon store time at the end-waste of time and I'm sure a money maker for Key. Otherwise Marie did an awesome job.

Two day Delphi and Meteora was amazing! Our guide, Sofia, was very friendly and knowledgable!! Itinerary was well planned, nothing was rushed or prolonged. Would definitely recommend this tour! Just one thing they don't tell you, you have to follow dress code when visiting the monasteries at Meteora. Make sure to have long pants for the gents, and long skirts for the ladies no pants.

If we had kept the initial tour guide and included the Delphi museum, we would have rated this 4 stars. Katerina was amazing in delivery and knowledge. She was with us Athens to Delphi. Unfortunately our group was then turned over to another woman, who may have had a lot of knowledge, but understanding her was almost impossible. This assessment was shared by a couple from Germany and other Americans. Yes, her accent was heavy, but it was the lack of organization of her thoughts and sentence/paragraph structure that made most of what she said very confusing. It didn't matter where we sat in the bus, so volume was a non-issue. Not including the Delphi Museum, which is highly touted, is an unfortunate omission for this itinerary. Other than that the inclusions and accommodations were quite good.

Excellent! Everything was great. Our guide and the tour. Although I think the time at Delphi wasn't enough, there were too many things to see! The hotel DIVANI KALAMBAKA was perfect.
