Mga bagay na dapat gawin sa Meteora

great start to finish 9am on time and reached Athens station 11pm~. Shoutout to Yanis our driver, safe driver and Vassou our tour guide, she was friendly and knowledgeable!! saw 3 monasteries inside and they even brought us to view the 4th one although from outside as that closes early but it’s fine .. it’s the first monastery built and the most gorgeous one! worth the steps to visit all 3 monasteries. lunch was great too. only downside was the dinner which was very expensive , guess typical tourist trap euro20 for 2 souvlaki skewers w fries, salad and a water bottle. there’s other food options which I overheard other passengers complaining about the prices they had to pay as well. but other than that, beautiful trip! enough toilet breaks w toilets in the monasteries we visited

Madaling hanapin ang sakayan. Maraming nakitang monasterya sa biyahe. Wala akong dalang cash pero nakapasok din ako gamit ang credit card. Napaka-humor ng tour guide at lagi niyang sinasabi na siya ang paboritong anak ng kanyang mga magulang. Mahusay at maingat magmaneho ang drayber kaya mahimbing ang tulog ko sa buong biyahe. Tungkol naman sa sinasabing mahal ang pagkain, hindi ko naman naramdaman; parang normal na presyo lang naman dito.

I participated in a 2-day, 1-night tour. For the hotel in Kalambaka, I chose the 4-star option, but I ended up being the only person placed in a large hotel on the outskirts of town. It took about a 20-minute walk to get to the town center. Given this, I would have rather stayed at a 3-star hotel in the center of town. I was satisfied with the tour content, though. The tour to see the sunset in Meteora was amazing. The next day, due to a misunderstanding on my part, I ended up booking a hiking tour. While this turned out to be nice in its own way, I wish I had chosen the option to visit more monasteries instead. Since it is far from Athens, I am glad I didn't do a day trip. If I am being picky, the pickup time on the second day could have been a little earlier.

Irene K and our driver George were an absolute pleasure! George is an excellent photographer with a wonderful sense of humour and Irene K was truly fantastic. she is extremely knowledgeable, flexible and adaptable to peoples interests and shared so much history and context that was truly valuable. Having such a qualified and experienced archaeologist as a guide to such ancient and important spaces was a real blessing! as for the trip itself, it was perfectly paced really such a special experience! I am so glad that I joined this tour and highly recommend it. The only negative thing I can think of was that the food at the restaurant for lunch on the first day was just okay and a little overpriced. Perhaps to tour company might consider some other locations to stop for lunch. Even just a smaller local spot considering the group itself was only small.

What an amazing experience! My son and I wanted to see Meteora and the monasteries from a different perspective other than from a tour bus. I am so glad that we went on this hike. Our guide, Kris, was so funny and very knowledgeable. I thought we were just getting a hike. What I didn’t expect was how knowledgeable Kris was on how the rock formations were formed, the ecology of the area, and how the monasteries developed over the centuries. The hike was not too challenging, but definitely bring an extra water bottle… They give you one at the start of the hike, but having an extra one would be helpful. Also, there were parts where we were out in the open so bringing sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses definitely helped. I would definitely recommend this hike to anyone on the adventurous side and looking to experience the beauty of nature and Meteora.
