Delphi

Reviewed By Charles_and_Susan - Nottingham, United Kingdom

We were shown around by a local guide as part of our Greece tour. Although you'd be impressed by what you saw if you went by yourself I think we got more out of it with a guide - or maybe take a good guide book, there's so much to see and understand at this site. If you're feeling energetic there's a walk right up to the stadium at the top, it is worth it.

Temple of Apollo

This ancient Greek temple is most famous for the oracle it contains, where pilgrims from all over the ancient world would come to have their fortunes told.

Ruins set on an ancient, winding hillside road that led through Delphi. Doric columns and the foundation are about all that remain -- but the evocative setting is what you come to historic Greece to see. Stunning views. And you're in the middle of a great collection of ancient ruins up and down the hillside (theater, stadium, temples). Superb.

Tholos

Reviewed By gselling - Philadelphia, United States

Perched on the edge of a steep ravine, this entrance temple to the main shrine of Apollo is in a staggeringly beautiful location. Enough has been restored to give the viewer a feel for the place. Take lots of photos!
