Two UNESCO stops from Athens in one trip: guided Delphi ruins, an overnight Kalambaka hotel, and Meteora monasteries with tickets included.
“Everything went well during the 2-day tour, with one disappointment. The tour guide finished the Delphi archaeological site tour at 1pm. She gave us 20 minutes to wander around, and asked us to get to the meeting point at 1:20pm. What she didn't tell us was that we didn't have time to visit Delphi museum. If we knew it, 20 minutes should be okay for us to briefly visit the museum. By contrast, more than one hour was spent for the lunch later.”
