This tour is both a visit to exquisite landscapes and a pilgrimage to a holy place. Be prepared to have your breath taken away every few seconds. We are incredibly... read more grateful to have been guided by Christos who brought us on a journey not a tour and really made Meteora come alive for us. We visited the Saint Stephen's Nunnery (the Holy Monastery of Agios Stefanos) and a hidden gem - the byzantine church of the Assumption of Virgin Mary. It is astounding that this precious holy place remains somewhat under the radar and in the shadow of monasteries hovering above. The artwork and frescoes are beautiful and unique and the whole effect of the church is magical. A truly hidden gem and the most spectacular part of a sunset tour of Meteora. Of course, watching a magnificent sunset made for the perfect end to a perfect day.

4 Hour Tour to visit 3 of the Monestaries at Meteora and see 3 others from outside.

The Participants in the Tour came from different Countries, but Yannis and Kostas made us feel like One Group. An exciting, challenging (physically) and educational Meteora Tour.
Such a Tour with Meteora Thrones we would recommend every one to book!!

Can't miss this if you go to Greece!! - There was no train service, so the agency arranged bus transportation for the trip. It was comfortable, with proper stops to buy food and go to the toilet. We would... read more have preferred no music/radio for a 4 hs trip though. At Kalambaka, we were changed to a mini van. The guide spoke a very good Spanish and gave us information about the town, monasteries and more! He was very kind and funny. Totally recommend to go to Meteora with a guided tour.

Meteora is Amazing - Thomas (Day 1) and Tasos (Day 2) were very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. They also gave good recommendations on where to eat. The place was spectacular.... read more Only downside is the train ride from and to Athens which takes 5 hours each way.

Awesome experience! - We had a great experience with Meteora Thrones. They communicated well with us and kept us up to date with some last minute changes. They were flexible to work with... read more and our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We loved our day at Meteora and would recommend Meteora Thrones.

An excellent introduction to Meteora - I took the afternoon sunset tour and appreciated the full overview of the monasteries, info on walking and hiking trails from the guide, and an amazing sunset. While watching the... read more sunset we also had an individual playing a saxophone which added to the experience- especially when he realized there were echos occurring. I would’ve appreciated was a bit more info on the geology of the area and non-monastic communities of the region.

Wonderful experience - The car is super new and really clean, Antonio, our guide, is a very nice gentleman with a lot of knowledge on the region. Super nice experience, I totally recommend!

Amazing adventure! Train depart around 8am morning from Athens, it’s around 4 hours journey. There is small snack and coffee shop in a train. After we arrived in Kalambaka around... read more 12 our lovely tour guide Ria was waiting for us. The car we did sightseeing was with ac, very comfortable. She had also water for us. As we decided not to take a break before sightseeing we went straight into Kastraki village to start the sightseeing. Ria was extremely polite, she told us absolutely everything and more than we could ever learn about place, history, monasteries and monks. She had a great knowledge, good positive vibe and patients to make us millions of pictures. Private tour was more convenient for us we didn’t have to wait for others, if we wanted to stop for pictures we did. We took our time in visiting monasteries without any time/ other people pressure. After all Ria has took us for lunch in a lovely traditional restaurant because we eat local when we travel. And around 6 pm we departed back to Athens. Make sure u book your trip ahead, might be not available last moment. Also way back is little bit tiring, train had some traffic delays so I took us more than 5 hours so I would recommend (if you have time) to stay a night in Kalambaka and go back next day. The level of hiking to monasteries is moderate, but if you do it slowly and have water with you, it will be okay.

In 4 hours you can cover all monasteries in meteora. Save cost on renting a car. The explanation on the history was easy to understand. The tour guide is really friendly!

TOP QUALITY tour! Guide was very knowledgeable, personable, funny! Van was extremely comfortable! Could not have asked for a better tour! Perfect way to visit the Meteora monasteries!

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!
