Perched atop jagged cliffs, the monasteries of Meteora are famous for the way they blend seamlessly into the natural landscape. Now, you can experience them for yourself on this day trip from Athens.
Tour Details
We'll meet at Athens Central Station at the scheduled time to begin our journey to Meteora, with our first stop being Kalambaka Station.
After a roughly four-hour trip, we will arrive in Kalambaka and head toward the Meteora monasteries. Before starting the tour, we will take a short break so you can grab some lunch. Afterward, we will have about four hours to explore the Meteora complex, where we will visit three of the monasteries.
The site consists of six priories in total: St. Nicholas, St. Stephen, Holy Trinity, Great Meteoron, Roussanou, and Varlaam. The monasteries to visit are selected based on their availability and opening hours.
Before returning to Kalambaka, we will stop at the Hermit Caves, nestled between two massive rock formations called Pyxari and Amparia, the perfect finishing touch!
Finally, we will head back to the starting point, concluding the 14-hour excursion.
