Temple of Apollo
The Temple of Apollo, also known as the Pythian oracle and the oracular shrine to Apollon, consists of over 100 columns in the largest Doric peristyle ever constructed. The oracle at Delphi was established in the 7th century BC. The Pythian Games were celebrated there every four years and in 467 BC these games were replaced by a Pythian festival that continued annually until it was closed by Christian authorities in AD 393. The site remained active until the 12th century, when it was sacked by invading pirates led by the Norman adventurer Bohemond III of Antioch.The name "Olympia" is derived from the Ancient Greek word "Olympia," meaning "Pelvic." The site, however, had no building in its original sense. The various sports and athletic contests were originally held within the opening of a natural stadium in the valley and were not part of any building.

In Greek mythology, Castalia took the role of the nymph of prophetic springs. She was a daughter of Oceanus and Tethys and was loved by Apollo. The Castalian Spring, in the ravine between the Phaedriades at Delphi, is where all visitors to Delphi — the contestants in the Pythian Games, and especially pilgrims who came to consult the Delphic Oracle — were required to drink before they could enter the temple. It is in a sacred place, since it was at this spot that Apollo himself appeared to King Croesus of Lydia. The water at the Castalian Spring contains medicinal properties because it is said to be imbued with the breath of Apollo.

Tholos of Athena Pronaia
The Tholos or Siphnius was an ancient Greek rotunda-shaped temple built in Delphi, Greece, to be the center of the religious and social life of the Sanctuary of Delphi. The name comes from the Greek words "tholos" and "siphnē", meaning, respectively, "round house" and "channel". It is commonly referred to in English as the circular Temple of Delphi. The Tholos was constructed on a steep hillside just outside the walls of ancient Delphi. It consisted of a circular colonnade of twelve columns that formed an open ring around a raised, circular "naos" (or "cella"), which was almost completely encircled by a wide, shallow steps.

Ancient Theatre
The theatre at Delphi has been restored and is now open to the public, providing a unique experience for visitors. The theatre was built higher up the hill from the Temple of Apollo providing a view of both the sanctuary and valley below. It was built to order by Pythagoras who also established its design in accordance to his theory of harmony. The theatre was dedicated to "Apollo Delphinios" or Apollo the Dolphin. It was most likely built in honor of Pythagoras's victory over the tyrant Neoptolemus at Olympia in 478 BC. The ancient Greeks performed ritual sacrifices on the top of the theatre, with the remains of animals and offerings inscribed on a stone on the summit.

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off cost?
+
Prices start at $112 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private 10-hour Tour to Visit Delphi from Athens with Pick Up and Drop Off start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
