The monasteries are absolutely beautiful, the terrain and natural beauty is wonderful. Stathis originally was to be our guide, but due to circumstances and travel delays on my part, I wasn’t able to meet the original date. Stathis was very welcoming and appreciative of me being there, and went out of his way to make sure that I was taken care of, and set me up with another tour guide on the day that I was able to come. This guide, Jim, was extremely informative and enthusiastic about telling his lifelong experiences living and growing up in the area. He also had an extensive knowledge of botany and geology, which was really interesting to hear. The tour of four hours was just long enough to let you see everything and motivate you to come back when you have more time, not too short and not too long. The town of kalambaka itself is very nice and is the type of place you would want to spend three or four days at least there. Nice restaurants with delicious Greek food, and coffee and pastry shops, all of course, reasonably priced. I would’ve liked to have stayed longer so I could walk the trails between all of the mountain monasteries. From what I saw, they were well paved with bricks and tiles. I loved hearing the Monastery bells in the distance at different times during the day, as I am a bell ringer myself. The spiritual aspect of the monasteries is wonderful, although anyone would enjoy it whether you are religious or not, because of the natural beauty and architectural beauty, as well as the abundance of history that you learn about. All in all it was a great experience, and the only downside was that I didn’t have more time there this time.Trotz schlechten Wetters eine super interessant Tour. Wir waren die einzigen Gäste und hatten daher eine Privattour😀 unser Guide hat uns viel zur Geschichte erzählt und an den besten Orten zum Fotografieren angehalten. Ich kann die Tour nur empfehlen! Fahrer und Guide waren super nett.

Die Reiseführerin sprach sehr gut Deutsch. Wir wurden ausführlich über die Besonderheiten der Klöster informiert, damit wurde die Besichtigung besonders eindrücklich. Auf unsere Wünsche (Haltepunkte, Fotopunkte...) wurde eingegangen. Wir hatten einen regnerischen Tag, doch das Team von Meteora Rocks Travel machte für uns daraus trotzfem ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Herzlichen Dank an Chrysia und Stathis.The tour guide and the driver gave the first class service to us. It was very interactive. The explanation was comprehensive and interesting. Also we have been taken to the most impressive scenery we will never forget.

Vi hanno prelevato in hotel a Kalabaka e riportati allo stesso posto.

Our tour leader Christina and driver were delightful, friendly and informative. We had to wait for other guests to arrive on a bus from Athens, which delayed the start of the trip, but we were not rushed as a consequence. We saw everything the tour advertised, and traveled in a comfortable air-conditioned van. The monasteries and scenery surrounding was phenomenal. I would highly recommend this tour. Be prepared to climb steps to monasteries!
