Visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Delphi on a private tour that takes you deeper into the myths and legends that surround this mysterious complex. Known as the Navel of the World, Delphi was the most important religious center and sanctuary in the ancient Greek World.
During our Percy Jackson Delphi Tour, we’ll reveal who the Oracle was and offer different theories behind the religious rites practiced here. We’ll also talk about the connections between the Percy Jackson books and the Oracle at Delphi, explaining the real myths on which the books were based!
What to Expect :
Our guide will meet you at your hotel in Athens, and then you will be taken by luxury vehicle to the site at Delphi. During the road trip, our guide will explain the plan for the day, as well as going into some of the history and mythology you’ll need to know to better appreciate your visit.
Arriving at Delphi, you will be guided through both the archaeological site itself (upper and lower), as well as the Museum. This tour is based on interaction and fun! Our guide will show you around the archaeological site of Delphi, sharing stories from the Percy Jackson books and Greek Mythology as they explain what each of the temples was for. You will discover who the Oracle was, where she ‘worked’, and just how she may have received her visions! As you explore the upper and lower sites, you’ll get a better understanding of just how significant this ancient sanctuary was, and perhaps, just maybe, feel some of the magic that still lingers in the air!
With a stop off at a local village for lunch, several other surprise stops, awesome viewing points, and countless photo opportunities, our Percy Jackson Delphi Tour is one you’ll never forget. You’ll feel as though you have been accompanied by a friend who has shown you a hidden side to Delphi, and you’ll come away with a much greater appreciation of ancient Greek society and culture.
