Itinerary
GETTING TO KALAMPAKA: Departing from Athens, the train is by far the most pleasant way to get to Kalambaka. From Athens or Thessaloniki, you can take either a train or a bus up to Meteora. The trains servicing the northern part of Greece leave from the “Larissa station” in Athens, while the buses serving that part of the country leave from Terminal B, at Liossion Street. Also, we can schedule to pick you up from Athens or Thessaloniki with a minibus. (Contact us for more information) In case you arrive in Kalambaka by train, we can pick you up from the train station and start the tour. TOUR HIGHLIGHTS: Visit Saint Antonios, where the first hermits arrived in the area of Meteora Visit 3 monasteries Visit St George the Mandilas Stops in many spots for amazing photos Visit the Byzantine church dedicated virgin Mary which is built 300 years before the first monks arrived in Meteora

We loved our trip to Meterora. We were lucky enough to have the best tour guide - Khristina. Due to a break down with the shared bus, we had Khristina all to ourselves! Not only was she incredibly knowledgeable, but she was very kind and sweet. I was having a very off day and was quite unwell. She took care of me like a mother would. She even went to get me some medicine and crackers. She showed us all the sights, took pictures of my husband and I. It was a very memorable day and completely worth it! I highly recommend this tour!
Thank you for letting us know about your memorable journey, despite your unexpected illness. We are delighted that Khristina made such a positive impact on your day. Your recommendation means a lot to our entire team, and we will certainly share your appreciation with her. Thank you again for highly recommending our tour. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in the future!
Our tour of the Meterora Monasteries was one of the best experiences of our travels. Our guide Khristine brought the region to life with her knowledge of the history, features and day to day working of the monasteries. I particularly enjoyed the explanation of the art and iconography that is a feature of the Orthodox Churches. Plenty of very good photo stops highlighting the blending of the Monasteries into the geology of the spectacular landscape. Truely an impressive experience.
Hi! Thank you for your kind replay. We are happy that your guide succeded to make you feel the soul of Meteora. We will be here if you deceide to come back with your friends...
We had a tour with our guide Lena and our driver Crazy Nikos! What a terrific tour from two wonderful guides. We were very fortunate to be the only couple so we got a private tour. We visited three monasteries and many viewing points and got many great photos. Lena was extremely knowledgeable about the history and religious importance of Meteora and made sure we knew everything about each monastery we visited to maximize the time we had there. She also included some visits to views that were away from the crowds. In addition to driving, Nikos helped take some amazing photos! We were especially pleased that Lena and Nikos adjusted our tour to allow for my wife’s mobility issue. All in all this was a great experience and would highly recommend. Ask for Nikos and Lena specifically!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled that you enjoyed exploring the cliffside monasteries with us. I’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Nikos& Lena—they love hearing that their passion for Meteora's rich history made a difference. We hope to welcome you back to Greece someday!
Excursion very well organized. Have seen the 6 monasteries and visited 3. Very friendly guide and driver, patients .. Had 1 hour to visit the first 2 and 30 minutes for the last. Have made many stops for photos .I recommend that the timing is tight .. About 3:30 a.m. to go all around.
Merci beaucoup pour votre excellent retour ! Nous sommes ravis que l'organisation, notre guide et notre conducteur aient été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Au plaisir de vous revoir ! Cordialement, l'équipe de Meteora-tour.

It was an unforgettable experience at Meteora . The escort had excellent knowledge as reference the history of Meteora and the surrounding area kept us interesting until the end of the tours. The guide was perfect. He stopped at panoramic spots to take amazing photos and also led us to many occult spots of Meteoron to admire the landscape. I strongly recommend the company.

A magnificent experience that of Meteora. As they didn't have seats on the bus, they made a minibus available to us. Nature and history, an osmosis of beauty, and the cherry on the cake was our guide, a real lady called Joanna, professional (graduated in history and archaeology), with a fluent, rich and well-articulated English, kind and patient with us. 5 hours of sightseeing flew like it was a moment. I would suggest to those who have the possibility not to miss a visit to Meteora, and honestly, I would recommend METEORA - TOUR.
