Spectacular views I was in awe - Our bus had an issue before we left for the tour and didn't come until close to an hour later. Once we got going it was good. Two hours into the drive we stopped for snacks, toilet and drove another 2 hours. I had chosen the lunch option so once we reached the restaurant we were given 30minutes to eat, use the bathroom, meet our guide and get into a different bus to see Meteora. Monasteries are beautiful and very interesting. We didn't get home until 11pm. Luckily there was free wifi on the bus to entertain my 9 and 6 year old. If you're not concerned about a long day, do this your. The views were nice on the way there during the day too. See a bit more of Greece country side.

The perfect day trip to the stunning Meteora - An amazing experience away from Athens in breathtaking Meteora. It was a seamless trip from 8am onwards. Everything was well organised and in Kalambaka the group switched from a coach to smaller vans, depending on the language of the tour. Our guide Clement and the driver Sakis make a great team, and Clement was very knowledgeable about the area. The coffee and lunch stops were adequately timed, but the optional lunch, though of a good portion, could have been of better quality. Otherwise it was a perfect day from start to finish and I recommend it to anyone visiting Athens.

Amazing tour guide and teamwork for a great experience - It's a seamless experience from the moment you are picked up in Athens at Larissa Station, then driven to Kampaka where you meet your friendly and knowledgeable guide. Our guide Maria and driver Sakis were a wonderful team. Both were so friendly and gave us a very rich experience full of interesting knowledge, fun times, and overall very easy to enjoy. Would definitely recommend and would give more stars if possible! Thank you for a wonderful day!

Excellent tour to Meteora - Excellent way to see one of the most beautiful size in the world. A nice comfortable coach ride to Kalabaka, then a ride in a mini vans up to the sites. A perfect tour guide was provided for the rides in the mini vans. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend this tour.

Amazing place! - Amazing place to visit. Guide with good knowledge and with great engagement. Do not miss this place. Also do it with a guide, to get the history and stories about it. Only not so good thing was the food. It was terrible. You have to eat since its a full day. But if you have the possibility to bring your own, do it.

Lack of Organization - Meteora is a beautiful place, and the guide was very informative, but the organization at Meteora Thrones is somewhat chaotic... The bathroom stops take longer than expected because a 30 meter long line is formed; the lunch stop had little options that were really "traditional greek cuisine", and it dissapeared fast (if you were the last to get out of the bus, you have bad luck); and in the trip back we had to go on another bus because there was 2 busses and everyone got mixed which one was in which, and because of this I lost the sweater I left on my original bus. I really recommend going to Meteora, but maybe go with a more organized tour agency.
