Private Day Trip from Athens to Meteora

Your day will begin with a pickup by your English-speaking driver from your hotel in Athens. After a quick introduction, you will board your private car and begin your fully customizable ride through the geological phenomenon of Meteora. Our drivers are not licensed to accompany you into the sights but are very knowledgeable of the places visited and will share all the necessary historical information and their local perspective.

Please note that men are required to wear long pants and women long skirts to enter the monasteries.

Once you arrive in Kalambaka you will be taken to the very top of the towering cliffs, to visit the monasteries that are perched high up on the steep rocks of Meteora. Varlaam Monastery, Holy Trinity, Monastery of Agios Nikolaos Anapafsas and Megalo Meteoro are all built in the 16th Century and offer stunning views.

At the end of your exploration, your driver will drive you safely back to Athens.
