What travelers are saying
- charming_starLondon, UK1 contributionAwesome excursion! I would def do it again! We really enjoyed it. Crew were amazing and food was delicious! My 8 and 5 year lld really enjoyed it too. The islands are amazing.Written September 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Melanie L2 contributionsThis experience was amazing. My husband and I are traveling Greece for our honeymoon and booked this adventure. We loved it! The hotel they arranged, boutique Holy Spirit, was perfect. We ended up eating all our meals at the attached restaurant, Gardenia Taverna because after our first lunch we couldn’t imagine anything else could be better.
The sunset tour was incredible. Our guide, Apostolos, was so passionate about teaching us all about Meteora and the neighboring towns. We learned so much and had a beautiful experience with amazing views and many stops to get the full experience of the monastic beginnings of Meteora.
The next day Vasilis took us on a tour of three Monasteries. Each different and each beautiful. Again we learned so much and had an amazing time.
The third day back to Athens through Thermopolyes and Delphi was also wonderful. We had a private driver with two other guests and had a great experience throughout.
We cannot recommend this company and your enough. The two nights were not enough, we didn’t want to leave! But definitely stay at least one or two nights to really get the experience.Written June 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He was flexible with the itinerary allowing us to go to a winery for a tour and wine-tasting. This was a great opportunity to get out of the big city and experience rural villages. Petros had extensive knowledge of the history and was a most excellent host.Written July 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Eva Kravvariti2 contributionsThe experience was amazing! Great customer service and food!! Highly recommended to anyone who is visiting Athens!!!Written August 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Landon A2 contributionsWe had a wonderful time on this tour to Nemea with our driver, Nikolaos. He was friendly and helpful, and seemed to know when to act as a "guide" and when to allow us (a group two couples) to enjoy each other's company and explore on our own. The three wineries we went to were amazing, especially Estate Constantin Gofas. Would definitely recommend this to those who love wine and would enjoy experiencing the country side, just outside of Athens.Written July 16, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Janice C3 contributionsI highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide was Nikolaos and he was great! He took us to the mountains, museums and great places to eat. Unfortunately the Cog train was closed but Nikolaos made sure that we didn't miss a thing. Don't miss this one!!Written May 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Paula P4 contributionsThe Athens sunrise photo tour was an amazing and unique experience that I will never forget. Vasilis is an Athens-born professional photographer with over 30 years of experience and with an incredible love and knowledge of the city. This was a private tour, and felt like a stroll with an old friend. He will meet you where your photography level is. The spot for the tour is incredible, with sweeping views of the entire Acropolis hill, Acropolis museum, and the city below. The sun rises to the right. We started well before the sunrise, and he constantly gave tips on framing, technical aspects, and timing. He made sure we made efficient use of time, since the light changes so fast with as the sun rises. He also gave suggestions on other places to go to photograph Athens and surrounding areas, and even brought breakfast! I came out with amazing pictures, new learnings, and a new friend. I wish every travel destination had a Vasilis. Now stop reading and book a tour! It was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Greece.Written August 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kristina W1 contributionWe had a great private tour with Mano. We enjoyed being able to see sights outside of Athens and along the beach. Manor was very knowledgeable about the area, patient and accommodating.Written June 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Vanja K2 contributionsI apologize for the lengthy review, but I truly feel I must share this with you.
As someone who prefers to explore at my own pace, I usually avoid guided tours. However, due to time constraints, I decided to make an exception and chose Visit Meteora based on their positive reviews. I booked a three-day trip from Athens for myself and my 19-year-old daughter, including visits to Thermopylae on the last day and Delphi on the way back. The experience far exceeded my expectations.
The organization was excellent. Our stay was in a spacious room with three terraces offering a fantastic view of Meteora, the monasteries, and a church. The owners were truly kind and very helpful. They also have a family restaurant next to the apartment where we tried the best traditional Greek food we found throughout Greece—you could sense it was cooked by their grandma 😊.
The places we saw during the trip were insanely beautiful. We also received plenty of information about the history and life in the monasteries. Our guide, Apostolis, was fun, knowledgeable, and full of energy. Being a local, he shared interesting facts about life in the nearby village: "All the people there don’t only know everyone but also everything about everyone." We took a sunset tour and a morning tour with Apostolis.
We also went on an additional, separately paid hiking tour with Kris, a great expert who explained the formation of Meteora right on the sandy ground. Kris told us many interesting things about history, the village, and Meteora. We also talked a lot about our hobbies, making it a very fun experience. He even showed us a "secret place" where only the locals go, and we enjoyed the sunset to the fullest there. Kris is also an excellent photographer and took wonderful photos of us (with our phones, of course). This hiking tour was the cherry on top—an exceptional experience where we climbed the Meteora mountain, discovered a hidden chapel, and rang the bell high up.
In Thermopylae and Delphi, we traveled in a private minivan. Our driver, Sotos, was very friendly and communicative. He told us many things about the landscape and Greek history. The drive through the mountains and past the olive groves went by in a flash. Did you know where the term "Thermopylae" comes from?
We visited the monasteries during less crowded times, traveled in the latest air-conditioned vans, and most importantly, received friendly, good-natured, and professional guidance from locals who truly have Meteora in their blood.Written July 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Great way for kids to learn about ancient Athens.Written August 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Barbara Z1 contributionI’m so happy I decided to go on the day trip to Meteora. I initially thought that one day would be too tiring and too rushed for a trip such as this but it wasn’t like that at all. The bus and bus ride were very comfortable - George our driver was excellent and the scenery beautiful. Maria our guide, who joined us in Kalabaka, was extremely knowledgeable with a bubbly personality which made her a joy to listen to. Our lunch in Kalakaua was tasty and generous and accommodated my vegetarian requirement easily. As for Meteora itself, all I can say is spectacular & breathtaking! I highly recommend this day trip and the team at MeteoraTrip.Written July 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bun P9 contributionsIt was a great way to see the country side of Greece. We saw where olives and pistachio were grows. Yvonne was our guide she was very knowledgeable about the land and she was so amazing.Written July 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mihai PBucharest, Romania7 contributionsThis was a great private tour. From the fact that is was THE best priced private tour from Athens to Meteora to how great our driver and guide, Petros, was. He was a gentleman, told us interesting facts about the things we saw, took us to the best photo op places. He adjusted the trip to our needs (we mostly wanted to take photos of the surroundings). And he did his utmost best to accommodate us. He had plenty of water on hand to keep us hydrated as well. The location is absolutely magnificent and a must see.
If you want a private tour to Meteora from Athens there is no better tour at such a great price.Written July 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
