I didn't really know what to expect, but it was a great time.

Beautiful Tour - The tour offices employees are very welcoming and helpful, the tour guide gave a lot of insightful information everything was just great.

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!!!

George was an informative and engaging guide who was very knowledgeable about the area and monasteries. The bus was comfortable with a safe driver and plenty of time was given... read more at all three monasteries to explore. Highly recommend taking a tour with this company.

Meteora visit - Absolute stunning views and totally worth the long day of getting there and back to Athens. A bit disappointed we couldn’t take the train (there was flooding and route was... read more impassable). However, I was impressed that you arranged buses as an alternative. I would have been so disappointed to not have been able to see this area of Kalabaka and the historical monasteries. The tour guide was so helpful and informative. The beauty of the rocks and area is indescribable. A definite must see. Thank you for putting together such an awesome adventure.

Amazing tour. Would highly recommend this to anyone. Young and old. Convenient hotel pick up. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made our experience even better.

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.

Amzing experience with amazing host. Learned a lot of history and saw all the special places/foto stations. Also visited the best monastaries. Everything was 100% on schedule as planned

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

Best of Meteroa In A Day! - I loved this day trip. It was easy to book, the instructions were clear on taking the train from Athens to Meteora, and upon arrival we were greeted by our... read more friendly and knowledgable tour guide Elaina. Meteora is otherworldly, and this day-trip meant that I could fit it into my few days in Athens, with time to spare in the late afternoon to explore the nearby town of Kalambaka!
