I found Lux Athens Transfers by chance for our group of 4 and certainly glad that I did! Our group opted to go to Greece early ahead of a pilgrimage tour and Yiannis and Petros did a great job from beginning to end. Yiannis was in regular communication via email around the planning and even with multiple changes around the schedule, he was able to plan a very interesting itinerary including the Meteora monasteries, Delphi ruins and museum, the Moka Olive and Bee Farm, Itea and Livadeia springs, and The Monastery of Housis Loukas. Hotel and restaurant choices were excellent! From pickup at the Athens Airport to drop off in Athens with our group, we felt very comfortable with Petros as a driver and a guide throughout Greece. His English is excellent and he is very informative about the culture. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Lux Athens Transfers and Petros for a future trip to Greece.

We were very pleased with our driver and guide, Petras. We were able to experience Meteora visiting the monasteries, Delphi visiting the ruins, Moka olive and honey farm, the seaside and various other sites. The vehicle used to transport us was well taken care of. I would recommend Lux Athens Tranfers for your day trips.

Fantastic day tour from Athens!! Our driver Petros was early for our 7am start, the car was immaculate and he immediately bought energy to our day. Petros was a wealth of knowledge about Greece and happy to share his experiences and suggestions. We visited a fantastic restaurant in Delphi village as well as some wonderful photo stops in off the beaten track locations. An amazing day!

Our excursion to Delphi and Arachova with Lux Athens Transfers and Petros as our driver was truly unforgettable. Petros's friendly demeanor and expert driving skills ensured a smooth and enjoyable journey throughout. His insightful commentary on Delphi's ancient sites and thoughtful recommendations in Arachova added depth and richness to our experience. From exploring historic ruins to savoring local delights, every moment was filled with discovery and delight. I highly recommend Lux Athens Transfers and Petros for a memorable Greek adventure.

We start our tour in the morning from Athens. The travel time to reach our destinations is about 2.5 hours.
Mount Parnassus is a mountain range located in central Greece, near the Gulf of Corinth. It is known for its natural beauty and for its association with Greek mythology, particularly the god Apollo and the Muses. The mountain is home to the Delphi Sanctuary, an important religious and cultural center in ancient Greece, where the Oracle of Delphi was located, which was considered to be the center of the world. The slopes of Mount Parnassus were also home to several ancient Greek cities, including Delphi, Krisa and Kirra.
The Temple of Apollo at Delphi was an important religious site in ancient Greece, dedicated to the god Apollo. The temple was considered to be the center of the world and was visited by people from all over the ancient Greek world to consult the Oracle of Delphi. The original temple was built in the 7th century BCE, but was destroyed by fire and rebuilt several times over the centuries. The temple complex included the temple itself, as well as other structures such as the Treasury of the Athenians and the Stoa of the Athenians. The temple was destroyed by the Romans in the 4th century CE, but many of its ruins remain and can still be seen at the Delphi archaeological site today.
The Delphi Archaeological Museum is located in Delphi and houses a collection of artifacts from the ancient city of Delphi, which was an important religious and cultural center in ancient Greece. The museum is home to a variety of artifacts, including statues, inscriptions, and pottery, that were discovered at the Delphi Sanctuary, which was dedicated to the god Apollo. The museum is considered one of the most important archaeological museums in Greece and is a popular tourist destination. It's open every day except Monday and national holidays.
Arachova is a picturesque mountain town located in central Greece, near the famous archaeological site of Delphi. Known for its traditional stone houses, cobblestone streets, and stunning mountain views, Arachova offers several attractions and activities for visitors to enjoy.
