The ancient sanctuary of Apollo, where the oracle spoke, three hours from Athens in a dramatic mountain setting.

Know before you go

It is a full day with a long drive each way. The site is steep, and the museum is worth the time.

What to book

A guided tour that includes the museum and the site, with a stop in the mountain village of Arachova for lunch.

What to check before you pay

  • Confirm total time on the coach versus time at each stop.
  • Check whether entrance fees and lunch are included.
  • Look for a pick-up point close to your hotel, not just a central meeting spot.
