The experience

Your ticket arrives by email, so you walk straight past the queue at the entrance. The 3D audiovisual app loads on your phone and stays with you through both the archaeological site and the museum. As you stand in front of each ruin or artifact, the app shows you what it looked like when it was whole: temples rebuilt in 3D, the Treasury of the Athenians restored, the stadium where ancient games took place. Audio narration in your chosen language explains what you're looking at and the myths attached to it, particularly the stories of Pythia, the oracle who sat in the temple and delivered prophecies that shaped the ancient world.

The site itself sits on a mountainside, and you move through it at whatever pace suits you: stopping to linger at a view, skipping ahead to the next marked location, or doubling back. The museum holds the smaller finds: sculptures, inscriptions, bronze objects. The app's interactive maps show you where you are and what's nearby, so you don't need to navigate by guesswork or paper signs. The whole visit typically takes between one and three hours depending on how many stops you make and how long you spend with the audio at each one.

Because your entry time is fixed when you book, you know exactly when you can arrive. The archaeological site itself stays open all day once you're in, so you can spend your booked hour there and stay longer if you want. The museum closes at a set time, so plan accordingly if you're visiting late in the day.

Is this one for you?The one to three hour window means you can fit this into a morning or afternoon without blocking the whole day, though if you're drawn to the ruins and the stories, you may easily stay longer once you're there. The self-guided format works well if you prefer to linger over details or move quickly through sections that don't hold your interest, rather than following a group's fixed pace.

Top questions

How does the 3D audiovisual app work once I arrive at Delphi?

The app loads on your phone before you go and guides you through both the archaeological site and the museum. At each major ruin or artifact, you can tap to see a 3D reconstruction of what it looked like originally, read the description, and listen to audio narration explaining its history and significance. You don't need earphones (the app works with your phone's speaker), though bringing your own makes it easier to hear in windy conditions on the mountainside.

What languages does the audiovisual guide offer?

The app includes audio narration in English, Spanish, Italian, French, and four additional languages, so you can follow along in whichever language you prefer.

Do I need to follow the app's route, or can I explore the site however I want?

You're completely free to explore at your own pace. The app marks locations and offers information when you reach them, but you decide where to go and how long to spend at each stop. Some visitors follow the app's suggested path. Others jump between sites based on what interests them.

What's the difference between the archaeological site and the museum, and do I visit both?

The archaeological site is the outdoor area on the mountainside where the ancient temples, treasury, and stadium still stand as ruins. The museum, located at the base, holds sculptures, inscriptions, and smaller objects found during excavations. Your ticket includes entry to both, and the audiovisual app covers both locations.

Can I stay longer than my booked entry time at the archaeological site?

Your ticket is valid for a specific day and time at the museum, which has set closing hours. Once you enter the archaeological site at your booked time, you can stay as long as you want within the site's opening hours, but plan your museum visit so you have time to see it before it closes.
