Very good organization. The guide spoke very good French, was very audible. His comments were varied and interesting. We learned a lot and at the end of the visit she took the time to answer the group's questions.

Delos museum is still closed But overall great place Guide was not a fluent English speaker so was quite slow in conversation and we felt the explanations went on for too long, should have taken 50% less time

A beautiful boat ride fir 35 minutes to the island of Delos and a very comprehensive tour. Being able to walk in and see many, many ancient ruins from the 1st-6th centuries BC...amazing!

Delos Island was incredible! All of the ruins were absolutely amazing! Highlight of the trip for sure.

Delos is beyond words. I wanted to get back on the late boat and go again.
