Train to Train Meteora Tour

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

Even though a major train accident occured in Greece about 2 weeks ago, they provided us with a great tour. All the trains were cancelled in the country, but they still chartered a luxurious bus to Kalabaka. They communicated about the transfer change very smoothly.
We highly recommend this tour!!!

A great tour for a day trip - We decided kind of last minute to join this tour, all train tickets were booked instantly. The train journey was comfortable. Tour guide and driver were excellent. I highly recommend... read more it!

A completely different look at Meteora - First things first: Meteora is absolutely stunning any way you look at it, and you can't really go wrong. But while any bus or car can take you to vantage... read more points to spot the monasteries, there's nothing like a good old-fashioned hike through forest trails across streams, rocks, and trees. There's no instant gratification here, but as you slowly gain altitude, the sheer brilliance of Meteora slowly reveals itself, a far more rewarding experience than simply taking a bus.

A guide can make or break your trek, and Christos was the best hiking buddy we could get. A local from the area, he knows the Meteora trails like the back of his hand, and is very well-versed with the history of the place too. While many people huff and puff up the hills, he strolls across like he's going to the supermarket, with plenty of breath left to narrate histories and perspectives of the Meteora monasteries.

While the buses focus on the monasteries and rocks, the hike gives you the opportunity to see another side of Meteora, the green, lush side.

If you're reasonably fit and want to go to Meteora, do the hike. You won't regret it.

I was joining the 29/10/23 Meteora Thrones Day Trip.
The trip was Excellent. I would like to thank our Tour Guide on that day ~ Clement from Canada. Feel to... read more Glad to have Clement as our Meteora Tour Guide. He is not only informative & Knowledgeable but also very patience to explain the History of Meteora. His explanation & sharing make use feel more appreciate more about Meteora ~ Monastery.

What makes a tour good or bad is the tour guide. Therisa was excellent! She is knowledgeable, friendly, very personable and funny. It definitely was worth the four hour... read more train ride to Kalambaka!

We were very satisfied with this tour during which we visited three monasteries and stopped at the most beautiful places along the way to see the spectacular panoramas of Meteoras.... read more
Pick-up from Kalabaka train station was quick and easy. We avoided the long queries at the entrances of the monasteries. Maybe we were just lucky or maybe the tour itself was organized really smoothly. The guide also was great.
Even though it would be great to have more time in each monastery, it is the best what you can do when traveling from Athens and back on the same day.

My wife and I took the sunset tour, and it was very nice! The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the monasteries of Meteora, those currently active and... read more the past ones. We visited inside one monastery, passed by the others and stopped for a few minutes, we also visited the ancient church of Kalambaka, and we finished the tour by watching the beautiful sunset from the mountains of Meteora. I would highly recommend taking a tour with Meteora Thrones!

Wonderful trip. Awesome views. Heart touching experiences, monasteries, hermits, nuns, monks, solitude, amazing nature!

Good guide, energetic, kind, humorous,

Beautiful scenery and friendly, knowledgeable guides. Be prepared to walk a few flights of stairs to reach the monasteries!

Good trip, a fun tour guide on the bus, never felt rushed. I would consider staying one night in Kalambaka as many hours on train back and forth from... read more Athens makes for a very long day, however I think Meteora is worth a visit regardless.

The view was amazing and the tour guide (demetri) was very knowledgeable, approachable and kept things fun. I would highly recommend

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.

Excellent and motivated guide with a lot of background knowledge over the area. On the tour you had enough time at every stop and didn't feel hurried. Also the driver... read more Christos took part in helping and answering our questions and didn't just sit behind the feel when we had stopped at different sites. Size of the group was compact so we didn't have to wait for fifty people at every stop. All in all really a tour to be remembered the rest of our lives!

Perfect Tour with an Exceptional Guide - This tour was everything I expected and my tour guide (Tomas?) was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Fantastic trip, train trip was easy. 2nd class more than comfortable. Hotel is adequate with great location. Both guides night and day tours were knowledgeable and humerus. Both toured offered... read more different aspects of the area. Highly recommend doing sunset and the morning tour. Awe inspiring area not to be missed. Definitely do 2 days if you can. Best restaurant was opposite the waterfall in the square.

Excellent trip. I tried to find the cheapest way to get to Meteora with my wife, but from the distance from Meteora from Athens it made the most sense booking... read more with this company. Renting a car would have been too much of a hassle as we only planned to visit Meteora and get back and our airbnb based in the center of Athens didn't even have parking therefore car would have been to exhausting of a drive and expense to rent. Especially trip taking 4 to 5 hours driving. Company instructions was very easy to follow and we learned a lot from our guide. I recommend this method and company as the best way to reach Meteora, especially if your only planning to be there for a day.

Meteora Tour - Excellent Tour Guide; fluent in English and gave a very good narrative of each monastry and history.
