Super easy entry, and the audio guide that we downloaded prior to our trip was very informative; simple and basic, not information overload like many guided tours. We loved the experience and had a wonderful morning at the Ancient Agora!

The bus and trip went extremely smoothly from the beginning. This was probably my favorite day in Greece. I would recommend the lunch as we got a plentiful lunch which you could choose from 12 different options on top of a greek salad and water. The guide Freideriki was very joyful and genuinely interested in providing insight about each site on top of the audio guide. The only negative thing is that they advertise entry to ANY 2 open monasteries, however in actuality the guide chooses the 2 monasteries you will all collectively visit so if you want to go to a specific one, I would not book this trip. However in our case they 2 monasteries were very nice either way and I'm sure all 6 are.

Really enjoyed this tour! I’m so glad I chose the overnight option as it gave me the chance to experience Meteora at sunset, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. I chose the Panoramic Morning Tour and was especially lucky to have Maria as our guide. She is so bubbly, engaging and full of stories, with so much knowledge and passion to share about Meteora. I absolutely loved having her as our guide. She made the whole experience even more memorable, and I would highly recommend this tour and Maria to anyone visiting Meteora! ❤️. The hotel although rated 3 stars feels good. It was clean and well located and even included a simple breakfast which I enjoyed.
