If you are driving, head towards Delphi on the E65 highway. From Mount Parnassus, take the road towards Arachova, and follow the signs to Delphi.

The address for your GPS is 'Delphi 330 54, Delfi 330 54'.
Public Transportation
If you prefer public transportation, you can take a bus from Arachova to Delphi. Buses run regularly throughout the day, and the journey takes about 30 minutes. Once you arrive at the Delphi bus station, follow the signs to the Temple of Apollo. It is a short 15-minute walk uphill from the bus station. The bus fare is typically around €3-€5.
