Very worth it as a roadtrip

My husband and I really enjoyed the drive through the roads of Greece. Arachova is lovely and so is the Sited of Delphi. I really think it is worth it to spend a couple of days in the vicinity.

wow what a great tour! as a classical studies student i was very excited to see all of this sites and this tour did not disappoint. i think that the night in delphi with the view at sunset was one of the highlights of my whole trip around europe. the first day was a little rushed due to being mixed with a day tour - it would have been nice to spend some extra time at epidaurus and mycenae but the other days were paced nicely and allowed lots of time to see the sites. our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of all the areas we travelled through.

Center of the world

I am assuming that since I had to take a bus to visit Delphi it is not the center of the world any more. Well I believe it should still be because it is one of the most impressive places I have seen.

El paisaje de Delfos es algo que nunca imagine. Un paisaje entre montañas, impresionante, que refleja perfectamente la historia de Grecia.
