- Meteora - Upon arriving in Kalambaka, a significant town renowned for housing the second largest and most significant complexes of Eastern Orthodox Monasteries in Greece after Mount Athos, Meteora, visitors have the opportunity to explore two or three of the six monasteries that appear to be suspended in the air, constructed on natural sandstone rock pillars. These Meteora Monasteries, dating back to the 11th century, are recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The James Bond film “For Your Eyes Only” was shot at the Monastery of Holy Trinity.
- Thermopylae - Known as the Hot Gates, Thermopylae is a notable town famous for the historic battle between Greek forces, including the 300 Spartans led by King Leonidas, and the Persians in 480 BC. This event is immortalized by Simonides in the renowned epitaph, “Go tell the Spartans, stranger passing by, That here obedient to their laws we lie.” The monument of King Leonidas stands at the battlefield, serving as a reminder of the patriots’ sacrifice for freedom.

Excellent tour to Meteora - Excellent experience. Comfortable transportation and very good service. Jimmy, the driver, really professional and great culture. He knows the places perfectly well and knows how to avoid crowds in addition to recommending little-known places and quality restaurants.
This is my second time in Greece and second time hiring HP tours, absolutely recommended

Professional Service for am private tour of Meteora. - My wife and I were assisted by Jimmy to do a two-day tour of Meteora from Athens. We were pleased with the professionalism of Jimmi as the driver and guide. Despite flight delays, we were able to cover the major monasteries at Meteora. I highly recommend Hellenic Private Tours with Jimmy.

Amazing day - This was a remarkable day. The photos of the monasteries had prepared us to be awed but being there in person far exceeded our expectations. Our driver was wonderful, professional and friendly. The trip requires a lot of time in the car, but we were comfortable and it was so worth it.

Best touring company! And great private Meteora tour - We went as 2 families in a private tour( 10 seater Mercedes) and we did 4 diff private tours from the same company . Hands down one of the best tour experiences I have had . They took us to two Monasteries with great views, and on the way stopped at some local restaurants and shops to buy the famous halwa. They took us to Thermopylea the place where the Sparta war happened and covered extra things. I would recommend them to everyone. Look no further and book with them.

Couldn’t be more pleased! Definitely recommend! - Couldn’t be more pleased with the service provided. I used the company twice (pick up from airport as well as a two day private tour of Meteora). Had the pleasure of getting Themis as our driver for both trips. They were very professional, knowledgeable, on time, spoke great English and a pleasure to be around. Made us all feel very comfortable and went above and beyond to accommodate our large party and some of our kids and senior citizen’s needs. Would definitely recommend them and would use them again.
