This tour was the highlight of our visit to Greece, as much as we enjoyed the various islands we visited. I was in awe of Meteora and the monasteries... read more and it is well worth the visit We caught the train from Athens and were picked up at the train station in Kalambaka. Everything was well planned and we had enough time for each monastery visit, as well as stops to take photos from various vantage points. The tour guide (Thomas) was a delightful young man, very enthusiastic and animated and explained the history very well. We also had an excellent driver as it is a feat to navigate the busy roads to get to the monasteries.

Wow this tour was incredible. I am sooooo glad that I took the 2 days tour instead of only one day. The first day, the sunset was magical. Simply incredible.... read more A movie-like sunset. Peaceful, zen, beautiful, with an amazing view of the mountains and monasteries.
The second day, I took the hiking tour. I was with my teenagers, and honestly it's not that hard of a hike. But the views... wow... Among the most amazing views I had in my life. We were (me and my kids) alone with the guide, so we had a very personalized tour. The hiking tour allows to see things you wouldn't see otherwise. It was GREAT we loved it.
