Definitely not to be missed! - Very well organised tour. We were tra sported from Athens by a nice bus instead of a train , had a stopover where we had lunch and then collected by our lovely & passionate tour guide Clement who was very knowledgeable and made sure we all had the best views, the best photos and the best time. Although it was a long trip from Athens, the experience really made up for the long journey . We also had a great driver Dimitri who made sure we did not miss any cave, any great view. Highly recommended!

Definitely recommend! - The views were amazing and our tour guide was very insightful! Maria was her name and she was very knowledgeable about everything! We ended up not taking a train due to it being closed, but they arranged a bus for us and let us know in advance. Everything was wonderful and Maria was absolutely amazing!!

Nice, recommendable tour. - Nice tour. At the moment we are travelling to the destination by coach, as train travel is very limited, if at all. For the coach trips, it can be worthwhile to organise your own entertainment program. The local Kleibus tour was well and quite tightly organised. And although the guide (Canadian - name forgotten, sorry) got some historical facts a bit mixed up, the anecdotes and information presented were interesting and entertaining enough to fill the time between the individual stops. Weather-wise, it couldn't have been better. Sunshine, clear and wide visibility. The day before it was said to have been much worse or hazier/rainier. Overall, a clear recommendation!

White glove tour of the monasteries and Kalambaka - Out extremely knowledgeable tour guide Chris gave us the experience of a lifetime. My husband and i traveled with Chris in his comfortable car to monasteries, sunset rock, the village around Kalambaka, the new and old city church while describing rock formations as well as the building of the the monasteries.. My husband wore a therapeutic boot and Chris was supportive and kind for our slower pace. He made certain we saw everything and took our pictures along the way the save the memory.

It is a good choice to travel with Meteora Thrones. - Since there were no trains from Athens to Kalambaka, the office offered to take us by bus from Athens. Although there was a bit of confusion about which bus to take, the bottom line is that we managed to get to Meteora. The bus journey lasted almost 5 hours, during which we stopped once to rest. We were joined in Kalambaka by Clement, who was an excellent tour guide. He explained the history of the monasteries to us in very understandable English and managed our time well. We were able to visit three monasteries in the time we had and stopped several times to take photos of the stunning scenery.

Fabulous and splendid experience - Views were amazing and got chance to experience cloud as it rained in the morning. As a landscape photographer, I shot a lot. I’ve added a few below as it’s perfect location pit stops by Meteora Thrones tours agency. Guide and driver are excellent with best definition of history.
