Pros
+ Very well priced comparing to other available real person guide options
+ Huge amount of historical material
+ Very well presented, the app works well (didn't have any glitches) and the narration is clear and pleasant
Cons
- I couldn't know for which artifact the narration was about without looking on the monitor; listening to the audio only, and not looking at the monitor/text, there is no correlation between the subject been spoken and the artifacts visited. Would be better if the narration was guiding the listener through that space, for example which direction to take, what to look at, etc.
- Navigating within the pages isn't easy especially given that we should be looking on the surroundings rather than on the screen and also the high temperatures and bright sun which causes glares at this specific location. It would be better if there were not many different pages but rather a more minimalistic design with everything on one screen as possible.
In hindsight I wouldn't have bought and used it but rather go read the history before visiting the site as in the audio there is no correlation between what is spoken and the visited artifacts.

Our tour guide Athina was very nice and friendly. She explained and told us interesting things concerning what we were visiting. The tour was well organized and we enjoyed ourselves. Only one thing disappointed me. On the program of the tour there was included a visit to both the villages of Delphi and Arachova. But the visit to Arachova consisted in passing through it on the bus on our way to and from Delphi and on the way back to Athens we stopped for only a couple of minutes to take a photo of Arachova in the background. You should specify that in the program of the tour on your site.

Greetings from Clio Muse Tours!
Thanks for your lovely words about Athina, but here's the twist – we're not your typical tour company! We don't have human guides; we're all about self-guided audio tours.
No buses, no quick stops. It's your adventure, your pace, your way. Try us out for a unique experience! 🎧
Kind regards,

While this is a place of great historical and cultural significance, it is hard to appreciate it fully without being on a tour or having the ap. There are no headphones to rent/borrow. There are signs identifying various features, but having a guide or the ap would fill in with the stories to make it more interesting. The site is well laid out and easy to navigate although climbing a hill to the top is involved.

Dear customer, thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We are happy to hear that our audio tour helped you enjoy your visit to Delphi. Please note that this is no conventional audio guide where you get a device at the entrance. This is a self guided audio tour on one's smartphone. So one has to bring their own earphones or use the phone's speaker. We wish you the best and hope to see you again in the future!

Believe it when everyone says this app does not work. The content is not exciting; the app’s GPS does not work and keeps closing. Customer care will not give a refund, so I had to contact my credit card company for a refund. Thank goodness my credit card company refunded me.

Despite other reviews, I took a chance and bought this tour. It actually worked for me. Quite informative and fun to listen to while walking on your own. It was nice to also include the museum. Interpreting where exactly the directions want me to go was fun. Would recommend.

Delphi is such an amazing place on its own. Having the self-guided tour enhanced the experience, providing useful information and navigation through the site. Also, the app is so easy to use!

When we arrived at the Temple of Apollo, we made the decision that, for us, this place was meant to be experienced in silence and just use the signage provided. It's a magical space and we felt distracted by the audio. So instead I used is like a podcast after our visit. It is very informative...we just chose to use it in a different fashion that it was designed for.

If you never succeed in downloading the virtual tour, and therefore never get to hear it, how do you get your money back? ☹️
Yes this happened to us. I downloaded the clio muse tours app last night but was never able to download the audio tour. We went to Delphi today and had a great time but without the virtual audio tour.
