Great experience - Loved both tours - the sunset evening tour and the morning monastery visits. We were lucky to have the same guide for both - Nikolaus. He was great - knowledgeable, enthusiastic, funny and just overall a really nice guy.

Meteora Thrones - Recommnded - I strongly recommend anyone planning to do a tour to Meterora from Athens to do this via Meteora Thrones. We went in February 2025. - The team are helpful and responsive, regarding planning transport from Athens either by Bus or Train - The bus transport is straightforward, from Athens train station - For the tours in Meteora itself, the two guides Nikos and Giannis were fantastic in sharing local insights into the monestaries and showing us the best photo spots. We felt very looked after and the logistics were smooth. Highly recommended.

Stunning Meteora Tour! - My son and I were recently part of a two day (one night stay) tour with Meteora Thrones and we had a fabulous experience! The bus ride was comfortable though understandably long (4 and 1/2 hours) which is why we opted to spend the night in the pretty village of Kalambaka. We went on the sunset tour on the day we arrived and a hiking tour the next morning. Our guide for the sunset tour was Maria who was both very pleasant and knowledgeable about the area and the monasteries. The following morning, Giannis guided out mildly challenging hike through the oak forest and rock outcroppings of the area. We saw the monasteries from a distance, the incredible geological features and even went into a hermit cave. Giannis explained details about the area and its history with authority. The only con I have of the trip is that our hotel's wifi service did not work. But that aside, I highly recommend Meteora Thrones Tours!

Mind-blowing experience amongst the rocks - Had an incredible time on this 2-day tour amongst the rocks - I'd recommend it to anyone coming to Athens. Shoutout to Nikos and Giannis, who were both fantastic tour guides.

must do! - Outstanding .Even it was a small group , Yanny and Cristos(driver) spend with us a lot of time and we got excellent information . On our second day Yanny gave us a great idea: we didnt go back to town and were dropped off near monastery which was not included . We climbed up and down ourselves based on their recommendation , instead of spending time in town. We saw all monasteries , instead of one that happened to be closed for maintenance.

The monasteries are... - The monasteries are completely breathtaking, The whole tour was wonderful. Clement was such an excellent guide. He explained the history of the area to us. It was foggy because it was winter so he went out of his way to show us extra things to make up for being unable to see some of the monasteries. We went inside 4 monasteries in total. Each one had it's own charm. Would highly recommend the 2 day trip,

Beautiful place, you will not want to miss, if you visit Greece. - This is an amazing place to visit. We really only needed one day for the visit. On the second day, we were just going to see more monasteries and it was going to rain, so we decided to leave the tour and travel back on our own. The bus back was not leaving until 6pm, and would arrive in Athens very late, so we took our on transportation. Liked our tour guide, she was VERY knowledgeable

Be prepared to have a terribly hot trip there and back - The bus from meteora to Athens was so hot everyone was profusely sweating. I usually tend to be cold so this was exceptionally warm. The driver was asked to turn on the AC but he didn’t. He was the same driver that took us from Athens to meterora. He was unfriendly and annoyed with everyone. Very uncomfortable 4 hours each way.
