Majestic Sunset on Meteora Rocks Tour

We were very satisfied with this tour during which we visited three monasteries and stopped at the most beautiful places along the way to see the spectacular panoramas of Meteoras.... read more
Pick-up from Kalabaka train station was quick and easy. We avoided the long queries at the entrances of the monasteries. Maybe we were just lucky or maybe the tour itself was organized really smoothly. The guide also was great.
Even though it would be great to have more time in each monastery, it is the best what you can do when traveling from Athens and back on the same day.

We did this tour to get to know the area.Picked up from our accommodation, guide very knowledgeable.

Amazing experience. Really good organisation - we had nothing to worry about. The train trip was also exciting, a chance to see the non-tourist Greece from the comfort of a... read more train seat (with A/C on).
If you get Dimitris as your guide - be prepared for an awesome day full of knowledge and giggles.
Highly recommend!

This was the most knowledgeable, interesting, educated, and entertaining tour guide and tour we have taken to date. Meteora was where he grew up and his father before him. He... read more ensured our very informative and fascinating sunset tour of meteora. We took a sunrise tour with another company the next morning and the sunset tour was by far better than the other. The excellent driver made sure our trip up windy roads was extremely smooth and comfortable. It was well worth the higher price of the other tours. Thank you for such an enjoyable tour!

I was joining the 29/10/23 Meteora Thrones Day Trip.
The trip was Excellent. I would like to thank our Tour Guide on that day ~ Clement from Canada. Feel to... read more Glad to have Clement as our Meteora Tour Guide. He is not only informative & Knowledgeable but also very patience to explain the History of Meteora. His explanation & sharing make use feel more appreciate more about Meteora ~ Monastery. His Summarised of the History is better than our High School's Teacher.
Easy to understand & memorise it even after the Trip. No Joke! Clement.you are the best:). This Tour is worth of time & money. Highly Recommended!

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.

Very nice Tour guide, good value of Money and a amazing experience at Meteora. Was worth it for sure!

We had such a great experience getting to visit this beautiful place. Marcini, our guide was truly a star, she shared so much information around the phenomenon of the... read more Meteora area and was always smiley and enthusiastic. Our driver was very kind too. Thank you once again!

Great tour - Recommend this tour. The guide was great. Went in 3 monasteries but was worth it as if you drove yourself you would never find a parking spot. That alone made... read more it worthwhile. Highly recommended

An unforgetable tour - There was no train so the trip from Athens to Meteora and back was by bus. I must recommend this tour because it is very interesting, the visit included three... read more monasteries and is amazing how those monasteries were built so many years ago. The views are excellent, specially for those fans of photography. It is a tour that you cann´t miss.

My wife and I took the sunset tour, and it was very nice! The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the monasteries of Meteora, those currently active and... read more the past ones. We visited inside one monastery, passed by the others and stopped for a few minutes, we also visited the ancient church of Kalambaka, and we finished the tour by watching the beautiful sunset from the mountains of Meteora. I would highly recommend taking a tour with Meteora Thrones!

Meteora Thrones Agency - Worth visiting site with this agency - We (two) went on Meteora tour from Thessaloniki with train and we were picked up by agency at Kalabaka (Meteora city). Tickets were organized by Meteora Thrones agency and sent... read more to me by mail a few days before tour. We took 1st class, what is worth spending if you like to have a reserved seat in comfortable coupe with electrical plugs for PC/mobile. Second class has lower comfort, no reservation and no plugs.
Tour was absolutelly very well organized in time and as well for the guide which said many interesting facts. The van was comfortable, and the points we were let go for exploring were so close to entrances that we did not have to walk many stairs.
The only problem on this tour is getting right information on trainstations, as we had to change train in one town ..... There are no displays showing any info of the forcoming trains; there is no display/sign on the train itself where it is going; there is no large visual sign/display on the trainstation with the name of the station/city; people working at suburban train station do not speak english; infomation of forthcoming stations in train are only in greek; ... all-in-all train service in Greece is a very badly organized disaster!
On opposite, Meteora Thrones Agency worked perfectlly well. Worth taking.

Easy to find, well organised (even if last minute), we didn't have to think about anything, the guide was very nice!

The team were super great! We had a lovely tour and our guide was so knowledgable, going to extra effort to highlight some of his favourite interests on the tour.... read more Wonderful team would do again!

The best place to visit. A good tour operator. Majestic views. Good natured driver and guide. Informative.

This has to be the best way to do a guided tour of Meteora. My wife and I are traveling the world and don’t do a lot of touristy group... read more activities but we only had a few days in Athens and Meteora Thrones made the experience very easy. Everything is booked for you and went according to the description. It’s a long train ride from Athens and that train is packed, no wifi and little service, so be sure to prepare for that. We were greeted by our guide at the train station and she was amazing. Personable, energetic and very knowledgeable. Please tip your guide if you have good service, we were the only people in our group to tip. As a rock climber, I’ve wanted to see Meteora for years and the views were better than the anticipation. We’re in our 30’s and active so we thought the walk/stair climbing was easy but some monasteries may be difficult for people with conditioning issues. Reviews said the monasteries accept credit card, but not really, we only entered 2/3 due to this so bring cash. One monastery let us pay by card in the souvenir shop. Unfortunately we missed Great Meteoron on a Friday due to a holiday prep, it’s usually open every day but Tuesday. If there are particular monasteries you want to see, check their schedule. IMO, each monastery has a different view and experience, worth going to each one. If you’re going to Meteora with a tour guide company, go with Meteora Thrones, they make the full day trip from Athens as easy and stress free as it could be. We left our apartment in Athens at 7 am and got home 11 pm. Sometimes the trains run late but best to be there 15 mins early.

With a seven-headed group of friends from Belgium we booked a one-day Meteora visit, including train tickets, bus rides, tour guide, free leisure time, and lots of breathtaking views and... read more opportunities. Tour guide Harry was funny and amusing, bus driver Socrates seemed skilled (and courteous towards us and other road users), and together they managed to get a whole group of tourists wherever they wanted to get them, on time, with even lots of time to spend exploring the monasteries, and extra time for pictures of amazing views of, and on boulder-like formations.

The tour was very enjoyable and the monasteries were amazing. Our guide, Demetri, was very knowledgeable and funny. He spoke perfect Greek and English and had an answer to any... read more question that we had. The van used to drive us around was new and very clean. Overall, a great experience!
