Meteora Full-Day Tour

About

Our full-day tour begins early in the morning. It is time to visit the “sacred shelter of Christianity”, Meteora. The name of the location means “lofty”, “elevated”, and is etymologically related to meteor.

The monasteries are perched on top of towers of sandstone, which for centuries provided totally inaccessible retreats for the monks. They are also considered, one of the most beautiful areas of the Greek mainland. Only six of the original twenty four monasteries are open today, attracting over 2 million tourists on a year basis.

We will be able to visit two (2) monasteries of the list below. Except from their religious value, monasteries offer to visitors an amazing panoramic view of the plain.

Later on, we can make a short stop to the heroic monument of Leonidas, King of Sparta at Thermopylae, before our return to Athens.
