Amazing Meteora tour that 'rocks'! - Amazing experience! We had two 10-years old children with us that were excited!! We loved walking! Our guide, Dimitris, had so many information to give us about history, monasteries, plants and animals and he was also friendly with the kids. We saw things and monasteries that you cannot see while doing the car tour. We walked a lot and visited one monastery from the inside. Mr. Stathis was so kind and helpful while talking on the phone that he was the main reason I booked that tour. Since we were just us, he was also flexible with the time. And the price so good. I strongly recommend that and I would do it again.

Meteora Rocks Hiking - We had a great 4-hour hike and we loved it. It was really easy and very informative. The price is right and the owner (driver too) was super professional and even offered a refund and if we weren't satisfied.It goes to show his sincerity in showcasing Meteora beyond the money part. Chrysa our guide is great and friendly. I highly recommend Meteora Rocks to those visiting Kalambaka/ Meteora. Definitely they deserve five stars from me!!
