Frequently Asked Questions About Meteora The Monasteries
Yes, most of our top-rated experiences (like the Meteora Sunset Tour or Hiking Tour) are also available as private tours for individuals, couples, families, or groups.
Before we answer this question we have to specify that everything should be taken into account. It depends on how fit you are, the transportation and time available, weather conditions ect. Most people are able to visit between 2 to 4 monasteries per day. The few visitors who visit all 6 of them within one day are missing out a magical, more slow-paced adventure. We recommend at least 2 days stay in Meteora.
Appropriate clothing for everyone is required to enter the monasteries. Sleeveless clothing and shorts over the knee for men are prohibited and you‘ll be denied access if dressed that way. For ladies skirts and shawls are available to borrow or buy at the entrance of monasteries in case they don’t have such clothing to cover themselves.
Our Meteora Sunset Tour and Meteora Hiking Tour are the most booked and highest-rated experiences. They consistently earn 5-star reviews for breathtaking views and expert storytelling.
Yes, most top-rated tours operate throughout the year, although schedules and access to certain monasteries may vary seasonally. Winter tours offer a unique atmosphere with fewer crowds.
There are many reasons not to want to drive while exploring Meteora — like if you’re not confident driving on the opposite side of the road, your spouse is a terrible copilot and you just want to have fun instead of arguing; or if you want to enjoy the scenic road and not to feel stress about the narrow and curvy roads. Lack of parking space outside the monasteries is especially frequent phenomenon during the pick period in the summer. So by joining one of our tours might save you a lot of headaches and unwanted distractions.
