Panoramic Morning Meteora and Monasteries Tour

The tour and guide guy was so nice, stay overnight or 2 in Kastraki village, eat at Gardenia Taverna

Great experience! - This review was great! We really enjoyed the monasteries and driving past/ going inside them. We went inside 3/6 and saw really cool things in all of them. Thomas was... read more a great guide and our driver navigated the busy, narrow roads very smoothly.

Dmitris wad a wonderful guide. He was on time and the car was very clean. During the trip, Dmitris explanationed about the monasteries and the rock formations. He was very... read more attentive and even made sure we had water during the visit. We were able to visit 4 of the 6 monasteries and at the end of the day made a good recommendation for lunch.

Amazing experience! Team was professional, driver (Kostas) Pro, and guide (Yannis) a local boy who knew a lot about place and share his knowledge with charm and sense of humor.... read more We also saved a lot of time for not caring about driving and looking for a parking spots. Highly recommended.

Well planed trip and friendly staff, everything went well on the trip. If you travel from Athens to Meteora it is best to go on an organised trip to facilitate... read more logistics

Great tour! - Clement was our guide, and he was absolutely wonderful! I think the driver deserves some mention here too, because WOW! I wouldn't want to drive a bus in that area!... read more He did an excellent job!

Meteora was amazing. The monasteries are absolutely beautiful and so full of history. Everyone should take this tour at least once!

Clement was very knowledgeable and helpful. We learned so much about the monasteries, the area around, and some of the local legend. Highly recommend!

The Meteora Thrones travel company were a great team. Prompt on schedule, with immaculate timing between monasteries.

Guide Yannis was a cool chap, with a good sense of humour,... read more and a decent array of facts about the area.

Approximately 3-4 hours total time.

Would recommend this trip to others.

We did the sunset tour and morning tour. All staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and stopped at some good places for pictures. They seemed to take pride in where they lived... read more as well, which I think made them such great guides. I did get inured on one of my tours and they did not have a first aid kit, so my only recommendation is they have a fully stocked one since there is the possibility of getting injured (very slim and I am sometimes a klutz, but you are touring older areas with steep inclines and declines, etc, which means it could happen). They did offer to stop by the pharmacy but that would have cut into everyone's tour time. I highly recommend them and would do it again.

Awesome tour!
Highly recommended! The path was great and we saw Meteora from a different "glance" that we didn't have the chance to experience it in other tours. The forest... read more was beautiful.
Christos our hiking guide was amazing!! He explained the history, geography, and the flora and fauna of the place, while hiking.

A must do, especially when short on time in Meteora. - We had a wonderful time with Meteora Thrones. We traveled as a family and know that tours with children can add extra stressors to guides and other participants. There was... read more never a moment that we felt any sort of way about traveling as a family with young kids, and in fact we’re treated so kindly. Our guide and driver were very sweet and informative and kept us posted every step of the way. I am very glad we went with this tour being that we only had one night in the area. We were able to see everything we sought out to see.

Many Thanks to Meteora Thrones Agency's services. And especially,I'd like to appreciate guide's service of Ms. Lora. Mainly for: interesting explanations that included a lot of important and relevant information,... read more humor and linking Meteora to lyrics of known popular songs. Additional advice on where to find the post office in Kalambaka was also much appreciated. As a former tour guide and a long term professional in field of customer care, I recommend Meteora Thrones to any of the passengers. Jan

It was amazing... I wanted to see the sunset in Meteora ever since I heard about the area, and I can say with absolute certainty that I wasn't disappointed. Everyone... read more was so polite. Thomas -our tour guide- was by far the best. He was super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. If you're visiting the area, a tour around Meteora is definitely a must-do! I'm definitely coming back again!!!

The trip is well organized and easy to book. The guide and the rest of the team are very nice and knowledgeable. They have interesting stories to tell about the... read more area. The trip to and from Kalabaka to Athens is quite long and tiring but the sight and experience that you'll see in Meteora are worth the trip and the money!

I went on a trip with my wife and my child (7 months old).

We had an incredible day at Meteora through this company! Our guide, Christos, was very knowledgeable and accommodating - sharing interesting historical and cultural facts, answering our many questions, and... read more making sure to get our input on the day’s events. He even called in a to-go order for us (delicious souvlaki!) to eat on the train ride home. It’s a lot of train time, but well worth it to see this absolutely incredible place.

excellent guide, amazing tour. - If you are in Meteora for the first time and if you can afford it - this is definitely the best tour. Antonis made sure to cater for everyone's interests... read more and physical abilituy, which in our case (I was with my 13 year old daughter and my over-75 mother). If I come there for the 2nd time I will now few lifehacks by myself already (how to access some monasteries by going down the hill, not climbing, for exammple), which offer more mystical atmosphere and which can be looked at simply from outside to avoid touristical crowds. Excellent guide, amazing tour.

Excellent and motivated guide with a lot of background knowledge over the area. On the tour you had enough time at every stop and didn't feel hurried. Also the driver... read more Christos took part in helping and answering our questions and didn't just sit behind the feel when we had stopped at different sites. Size of the group was compact so we didn't have to wait for fifty people at every stop. All in all really a tour to be remembered the rest of our lives!

Wonderful tour! Our tour guide Maria was very kind and well-informed, and she made the trip very enjoyable. Great experience!
