2 days Meteora Tour from Thessaloniki by Train

Meteora sight seeing - Worth the long train ride!! Meteora is gorgeous. It would of been nice to stay longer but we only planned 1 day but could easily spend 2-3 days there. April... read more is a nice month to visit

An unforgettable family experience. Well organized, the tour guide Christos was friendly, informative and willing to share his knowledge

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

amazing trip - I'm glad I booked this tour. This can easily be tge highlight of my trip to Greece. Kalambaka is amazing.
I'm supposed to use the train to go to Kalambaka,... read more but because trains and railway lines are closed, the company arranged for a big bus to take us from Athens to Kalambaka.

This was an excellent tour of the monasteries, with plenty of opportunities for photographs and panoramic views. The driver was extremely friendly and the tour guide was very well informed... read more and a pleasure to listen to. We learned a lot. We recommend this tourist company without any hesitation!

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.

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

Must do tour of Meteora!! - Absolutely amazing tour of Meteora and the monasteries. Our tour guide’s passion for the area and knowledge of the Orthodox faith came through and made this tour incredibly enjoyable. We... read more learned about the creation of the area from a geological perspective and then from the first monks to the area. Unfortunately forgot the tour guide’s name - he moved to Kalambaka from Canada.

Plenty of stops at locations to take spectacular photos and to visit three monasteries (including museums where monks display important relics).

Be prepared for lots of stairs 🙂

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.

An unforgetable tour - There was no train so the trip from Athens to Meteora and back was by bus.

Antonis made sure to cater for everyone's interests... read more and physical abilituy, which in our case (I was with my 13 year old daughter and my over-75 mother). If I come there for the 2nd time I will now few lifehacks by myself already (how to access some monasteries by going down the hill, not climbing, for exammple), which offer more mystical atmosphere and which can be looked at simply from outside to avoid touristical crowds. Excellent guide, amazing tour.
