Temple of Apollo

Our visit to the Temple of Apollo with Key Tours was a highlight of our trip. We spent an hour and a half exploring the site, which felt like the perfect amount of time to soak in the history and incredible views. The ruins are majestic and well-preserved. It’s a profound experience standing where the ancient oracle once spoke. Highly recommended!

It is a very calm and peacefull place. If you have the opportunity to see it you must bring a book with you. 😉 It closes at 15:30 in the Winter. The people working there are very stupid and agressive. They are arguing and pitching with you. They don't have a heart and they are not ethical. 💔 This place was close to my heart, but after what happend last time I really don't want to go there again. 😓

They close at 15:10 during winter time. Was quite interesting to see the whole stadium and historic area, yet kind of not understanding the rush to close so early if the sunset is at 17:10 even on the shortest day…

The Temple to Apollo was an amazing archaeological landmark. It was dedicated to the Pythian Apollo who guided the oracle at Delphi. It is actually well preserved given the ravages of time that swept over Delphi. As always, you should do your own homework prior to visiting any ancient site to understand it and its significance.

The site itself is relatively compact and, to further that feeling, when we visited the Athena part of the monument was temporarily closed. The space is well kept, and even or a rainy day the site was still very accessible with no security concerns due to slippery terrains. The temple of Apollo was amazing and everything from top to bottom was stunning, especially in context with the rest of the remnants like the treasury and the market. Didn’t have time to visit the museum, however, I still found it very much enjoyable and interesting.

It is humbling to see how advanced the ancient Greek were, compared with the rest of Europe. A really impressive site to visit. The walk to the stadium is quite a climb. (Not hard, just exhausting in warm weather) If you really want to see it, go for it. It is beautiful. I would surely recommend getting a top view from the theatre, to really see how big the site is. Also, dont forget to visit the museum. Perhaps visit the museum first. And remember the statues you see there. A lot of pieces of the puzzle will fall in to place at the site. As you can hardly imagine how things would have looked

The famous Temple of Apollo at the Delphi archaeological site, located between the beautiful town of Arachova and the modern village of Delphi, is absolutely worth visiting and highly recommended. The place where the temple stands feels magical—you can truly connect with the surrounding nature. There’s something special about the mountains, the golden-yellow flowers scattered everywhere, and the lush green trees. A helpful tip: be prepared for plenty of walking. It’s like an easy hike up to the upper part of the site, where you’ll find a stunning ancient stadium and breathtaking views.

An unforgettable experience. After visiting the museum we climbed the hill up to Apollo's temple. The place has a certain atmosphere, which cuts through even when the huge tour groups rumble through each area. If you have any interest in the Oracle you must come to see this magical place. Ask Apollo for advice at his temple, which is the centre of the universe, and wait for a sign. The views are stunning and the only negative is I wished it hadn't been so busy. Perhaps try to visit at a quieter time of year. Highly recommended.
