We were disappointed with this tour. It lacked a lot of communication and information. We were not aware we would be left +4-5 hours on our own at the hotel, each day. The hotel was not close to the center and quite a walk. The itinerary was as such: Day 1 - we went to Larissa station for bus pickup. We were dropped at the hotel in Meteora around 12:00 and were told to be at the lobby at 4pm for the sunset tour. So we were basically left on our own for this duration. We were not aware of this prior to booking the tour. The sunset tour was okay, but I was slightly disappointed with the experience. The next day, we opted for the mini-tour bus. The pickup was at 8:30 and finished at 13:00. We were then left on our own until 17:30, for the bus pickup to go back to Athens. Having known all this and considering the tour cost, we would not have taken the 2 day tour.
However, Meteora is beautiful and a must visit, but this tour was not worth the price paid.

What an amazing place to visit. Dimitris gave us an amazing private sunset tour and Tolis and George did a wonderful job with the site seeing tour on the second day. Some of the monasteries have a lot of stairs to get to them so be prepared. Also make sure to have a plan during down time on the second day. We visited the natural history museum and had a lovely lunch in town.

Meterora site is magnificent regardless of a tour agency you choose, BUT! This specific tour and the travel agency was worth every dollar it cost. Arrangement in terms of time scheduling was perfect, for example on the 2nd day we arrived at Grand Meteora Monastery right at the time it opened, thus we avoided a huge crowd of tourists arrived just in 15-20 mins past us. The same applies to other sights visited.
Coordination between travel agency staff was perfect as well. Once you book a tour they send you a detail and very clear itinerary with timing and locations for each specific step. I didn't need to contact anyone not a single time, neither I had any question of where and when to be.
3* Hotel accommodation was great, even better then I expected. For the second day activity I chose mini-bus tour, it slightly coincide with previous day sunset tour, but still super interesting as gives you a chance to visit Monasteries.

The sunset tour was as perfect as could be with Katalina. It rained during the next morning’s tour but we still had a fabulous time!

We had a great time. The sunset trip was spetacular. In fact, stops before the last one (viewing sun setting in the mountain) were even better. Great opportunities for taking amazing photos of the monastries bathing in the soft and golden sun light.
The morning hiking trip was also amazing. We saw many beautiful scenes, some are hidden gems.
We had two different guides. Both were friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke perfect English.
Strongly recommended!

We had sunset tour and a hiking one. Both were amazing, and both guides were perfect, pleasant, highly engaging and educated. Smooth organization and flow. We took 3stars option hotel and it was more than enough for a night, clean, comfy beds and great sleep. Highly recommended!

The Sunset and Hiking tours were absolutely worth it! Very educational and with the most incredible sights. Visit Meteora really goes out of their way to make sure its guests enjoy their time in Meteora. Our tour guides, Katerina and Evan, were incredibly knowledgeable about the history, flora, and fauna of Meteora. They encouraged us to take as many pictures as we wanted and often took us to the best possible viewpoints/monasteries. Overall, a wonderful experience that is unique to mainland Greece!

Amazing views and excellent, knowledgable and friedly guides. I did the sunset tour one afternoon/evening and a hiking tour the next morning. Very different tours where we saw very different views and visited different monasteries. Well worth it.

Would strongly recommend two days in Meteora so you can do the hiking tour on the second day morning.
The hiking tour at Meteora was absolutely the highlight of my twenty days trip in Greece and Italy. Chris was very professional with great local knowledge and insight! Being able to spend a whole hour at Varlaam in the morning before the tourist buses arrive was abolutely amazing. So serene!! Thanks Chris! Was great to meet you. :)

The only downside of this tour was that due to the devastating floods, it was a bus tour. And it's a long drive from Athens. Other than that, everything was perfect. We opted for the Sunset Tour and the Hiking Tour. Our guides were wonderful, and the logistics were well organized. I especially liked the fact that the hiking tour involved real hiking, with some elevation gain that got us to the top of several towers for great views. We had time to explore Kalambaka on our own, rather than having every hour of the day scheduled. I always consider my first trip to a place to be a reconnaissance mission. After visiting Meteora, I know I'll be back. And the next time, I'll bring my climbing gear!
