Μονοήμερη εκδρομή στα Μετέωρα απο Θεσσαλονίκη με το Τραίνο

Christos was a wonderful guide, really engaging, and full of knowledge and stories. Even my teenage kids were enthralled by the many anecdotes and insight into the places we visited.... read more
Nothing to add to how breathtaking Meteora is, the photos do not do it justice and the other reviewers write far better than I.
But I will add another reason to take this tour is that you will visit some monasteries out of the beaten path. If we had just driven ourselves we would probably have stuck to the big ones

I got this tour for my friend and I. It was a gift to her. We both loved it. Very well organised, the guide was great and funny. I recommend... read more it 100%! Go for it! We visited 3 monasteries and learned a lot about the history, the monasteries and how did these cliffs even happen to be there. Thank you so much!

The family and I headed up from Athens for a day trip. The train was canceled due to the major train accident, but Meteora Thrones reaccommodated via a coach... read more bus. The bus was a bit cramped, but all in all, we are glad they reaccommodated.

The monasteries were truly spectacular. And our tour guide, Antonio, was absolutely fantastic. He was as kind as could be, and he was so passionate about the history of the monasteries. He was also passionate about the Kalabaki where he lived. He seemingly knew everything there was to know about the area. It was great. We stopped at two monasteries and the hermit caves, all the while learning something new from Antonio and marveling at the architecture. We would recommend Antonio to anyone touring the area.

The 4 hour train ride from Athens is so worth this trip to the majestic monasteries of Matetora. They pick you up at the train station and the tour is... read more fantastic and well worth the money. Our guide was lovely and knowledgeable.

Our tour to Meteora was amazing. I think it was the place I enjoyed the most in Greece land. some weeks ago I had to change the type of tour... read more for personal reasons and meteora thrones was kind enough to change it pretty immediately and refund me the money of the first one. On the other hand, our guide, Sara, told as a lot of good information and in a dynamic and quite way (not as a radio, if you know what I mean) 😉 she was very sweet and clear. I would definitely recommend this agency and the place to everyone visiting.

The tour was a fantastic experience. The monasteries were incredible from the inside and outside. The journey in the van between the monasteries was pleasant and convenient and the guide... read more was very knowledgeable and knew the area inside out. I can highly recommend this tour!

Amazing summary of Meteora - Maria, the tour guide, was amazing! Friendly and explained everything in detail. We loved the tour and definitely recommend it.

dimitris lead our tour - very experienced and lots of stories . I have been tp Meteora before and this time I saw far more - a monastery... read more I had not seen before, a church and many beautiful sites. The sunset is always approximate but it was enjoyable to sit around and see these fabulous mountains - between heaven and earth. All was easy and well arranged.

amazing 1 day trip experience on road and to actually see the wonderful Meteora site - ontime - crew very friendly and welcoming- guide on the bus (Maria) amazing, fun,... read more very knowledgeable and fun-easy to understand - tour highly recommended.

Wonderful. Best tour I have ever been on. - This is a great tour. The tour guide is excellent, and the tour had some amazing sites, and great information. The pace is excellent, and you can easily choose the... read more right level of activity for each individual. What an amazing place, too! Meteora is simply beautiful, and worth visiting for anyone!

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.

This was an amazing experience! I'm so glad I did this day trip from Athens! I took so many breath taking pictures! Just incredible!

It is a long day.... read more So, be rested and ready. Lots of walking.

Our train tickets arrived by email well before the tour, with assigned seats. Athens station was easy to navigate and find the train ok. Top tip there’s a station cafe... read more on the platform side that we only saw after getting to the platform!
The train was a little delayed, announcements kept coming on the platform which was ok, no actual information on the length of the delay tho!

Eleni and the driver (whose name I can’t recall, apologies) were both superb throughout the tour. They were waiting outside the station with a large sign with names listed below, no issue. We ended up on the largest of the coaches which was nice and a group of I think 16 people.
From the station we went to the main square in Kalambaka and stopped for 15 mins by a bakery to grab drinks and sandwiches/ pastries and bathroom stop, also goes to spot potential places for dinner after the tour.
The monasteries were stunning and lived up to all anticipation. there were 24 in Meteora, now only 8 and 2 uninhabited. 4 monks monasteries and 2 female. The first was the Holy Monastery of Grand Meteoran, be warned there are 275 steps down and up to get to the monastery and the same coming out. Superb, stunning frescoes, just magical views of the other monasteries too. Second was Varlaam, only 150 steps here, just as beautiful and the views were magnificent. En route fro here to the last monastery we saw the scenery used for a Games of Thrones scene and the monastery (occupied by one 53 yr old hermit monk) used in For shout Eyes Only.
The last monastery was the a holy Monastery of St Stephan, nuns here (priests at the the others two, none seen at the first one seen at the second with some serious ring kissing going on with visitors ).
St Stephan was way favourite of the three it is beautiful, the church itself is amazing, with incense to add to the ambiance. Beautiful lavender and rose gardens behind it with more stunning views over the valley and a sad dried up river bed (2022 drought).
A short stop at an icon workshop en route back to Kalambaka and ended up back in the central square.
We ate in the square at the Archontariki Taverna and the food was really good, service friendly too
The train trip back was smooth, just a long day but absolutely worth it it was phenomenal totally recommend it and the company they were superb

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!

Puntual and very good explanations. Our guide Elena was very knowledgable and answer all our questions.

Many thanks to Yiannis and Kostas for making the "Majestic Sunset" tour such a great experience! The Meteora is simply spectacular. The tour is very well organized to... read more maximize what you are able to see in the four hours of the tour. The narration is fascinating with so many details you would never be able to know without an expert guide. The last 30 minutes on Sunset Rock make for memories of a lifetime (and a few great photos!). Highly recommended!

The view was amazing and the tour guide (demetri) was very knowledgeable, approachable and kept things fun. I would highly recommend
