Overview

Discover Meteora on an unforgettable 2-day escape from Athens. Travel aboard a comfortable air-conditioned coach and enjoy exclusive coastal stopovers at a beachfront restaurant, where you can relax with brunch on the way to Meteora and dinner by the waves on your return.

Upon arrival in Meteora, transfer to your hotel and join the Meteora Sunset Tour. Visit Saint Stephen Monastery, explore the Byzantine Church, discover hidden hermit caves, and admire breathtaking sunset views from Meteora's most panoramic viewpoints.

The next morning, choose between the Meteora Hiking Tour, featuring ancient trails and a visit to Great Meteoron Monastery, or the Half-Day Tour with visits inside three active monasteries.

Unlike most overnight tours, this experience includes carefully selected 3-star and Executive hotel options, or the flexibility to arrange your own accommodation with our No Hotel option. Return to Athens with unforgettable memories of one of Greece's most extraordinary place.
