A fantastic place—definitely worth a visit! It’s definitely hot and there’s not much shade, but luckily it was early in the morning, so there weren’t many people and there was no line at the entrance. The museum is also worth a visit.

Well organised, Effie was a lovely, friendly guide. The transfer was very comfortable with audio guide explaining the history of the areas as you travel along the coast. Temple entrance tickets provided on the transfer. Beautiful views of the riviera on the way there and back. The Temple and surroundings are stunning, especially at sunset. Well worth the trip!

Great guide in Clement. The trip was well organised with plenty of stop overs. The sights of Meteora were amazing. However, probably best to start tour at 7am to beat the summer heat. Bring a few bottles of water during summer. Bus driver John was great, got home safely.

All of the tour was beautiful. The drive there was nice and when we got there the view was beautiful. The information from the guide was good and the trip was well organized. The only problem was the bad microphone quality of the guide, you had to focus so much on what she was saying that it was hard to enjoy the views fully.

Due to the limited outdoor seating capacity on the ship and the number of reservations made, it was difficult to find a seat; at the start of the tour, we sat in the closed restaurant area, and afterward, we barely managed to find a spot and go outside. They probably limited the seating this much to encourage people to upgrade to the VIP section, but the VIP section was way too expensive at 70 euros. Other than that, everything was great. Lunch was also quite sufficient and tasty.
