Do it! - A great experience, first to se the monestary, then the church, the hidden gems and ending with the beautiful sunset! Lina was great and knew a lot about the religion, culture and nature of the area and Greece. And Nico was an excellent driver. Big recommendation!

Great memory to take back home - Besides the breath- taking views, our guide, Tollis, briefed us about Meteora's topography & history, and explained many ideas & beliefs of the Greek Orthodox Church in a simple humorous way. The tour included water bottles and a ride in an air- conditioned bus. And the cherry on top was the sunset on one of Meteora's peaks.

A must tour when visiting Meteora - When visiting Meteora this is a must tour. Not only is it great value but you get to see and learn so much. You learn about the entire area and visit multiple sites including one of the monasteries, a Byzantine church founded in the 4th century, hermit caves and multiple viewing points of the area including the best sunset vantage point. Our host Maria is an exceptional guide and shares her knowledge and passion for the area throughout the tour. This is the only way to experience this area and I can’t recommend it enough. Thanks for making our stay to Meteora.

Highlight of our trip - This was the highlight of our 3 weeks in Greece. I have been multiple times to Greece and always wanted to see Meteora. It is off the beaten path of Greece so was always hard to plan. This tour was fantastic. Lina was so knowledgeable about the monasteries and the history. We went to multiple photo stops, St Stephenson’s monastery, went to see the hermit caves, and the last stop was the sunset rock to watch the sunset. Great night. The tour is a little longer than 4 hours.

Difficult hike, but great views - This was a unique and great experience although be aware that it is quite a hike. It seems that where you hike varies based on the guide. For our tour, we hiked up about 3000ft total over 3.5 hours - up to the top of two of the rock formations, ending at Sunset Rock. They are great trails and vary between steps, dirt trail, and on rocks. It was a memorable tour, but felt the description did not quite capture the activity. If you regularly hike, this will not be a problem but we travelled with people who did not and it was strenuous; it should be classified as a difficult hike. Also, we had great views, but did not go to as many hermit caves as I thought we would. Overall, very glad we did it and would do it again.
