The place is amazing, definitely a must see. The staff at the travel agency were kind and helpful.
We arrived from Athens, they waiting for us at the train station.... read more We were lucky with the weather, there was no heatwave yet. We looked at 3 monasteries from the inside. We didn’t have to climb stairs with a heavy bag, we were able to leave our luggage on the bus. It is worth taking water and food with you.
The program was definitely worth the 8 hour trip. Thank You

I went for the two day trip and had maria and Elias driving. I much appreciated the views and how Elias didn’t speed through everything so I got to see... read more nice views going up. Maria was a great tour guide I learned so much stuff from here and she was really interested in getting to know us. I feel like I know so much more than I would’ve if I went with some other company and I love how the tour was tailored to what my group wanted. We went places and had plenty of time to explore and take pics before coming back to the van for a new place. Maria and elias thank you so much it was the best experience ever!

I joined a half-day private tour, a sunset tour, and a 5-hour day tour. The tours were very well organized. The guides Thomas, Elena and Christos were professional, knowledgeable, and... read more kind. There was so much to learn and the delivery by the tour guides was impeccable. The area was amazing and the tours were well priced and worth the money. The monasteries and the Byzantine church of Virgin Mary are absolutely beautiful and rich in history. I highly recommend visiting the area at least once and joining these tours.

We booked the 2 day tour which included a RT train ride from Athens to Kalabaka, 1 night accommodations, a sunset tour and a morning tour. We went early... read more September when Kalabaka and surrounding areas experienced torrential rain and flooding.
Clement was our tour guide who was excellent and you can tell he loves his job and passionate about sharing his knowledge. I give him 5 stars.
Day 2, because of the storm, the monasteries closed, train tracks and roads closed. The tour company tried to get us back to Athens by bus but because the roads closed, the tour company sent a van to the bus station to pick us up, made arrangements for 1 nt accommodations at their expense. James, the tour company owner, met us at the hotel and made sure we got checked in. Throughout this ordeal, the tour company stayed in close contact with us. We managed to find a different way to return to Athens but this tour company went above and beyond. They cared about us, our well-being and safety and I am very impressed at how they handled the situation.

The transportation is comfortable and you have plenty... read more of time to visit everything, with nice explanation from the guide and nice spots to admire the mountains.
As a kind of drawback, they do not enter with you to the monasteries to explain from inside. They let you to enter on your own to visit it, with a prior explanation of everything. Although it was a good explanation with plenty detail, someone might prefer them to enter with you. As for me, I liked it because like that you can spend time on those places you liked the most and the visit is not so
