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.
