Meteora Sunset Trip

The monasteries of Meteora attract many visitors to Greece. This day trip from Kalambaka allows you to admire the sunset while visiting one or two UNESCO-protected monasteries.

Pickup will be from your hotel in Kalambaka or Kastraki in the morning. An English-speaking guide will provide insights into the history of these rocky formations, which rise more than 600 meters high, and the monasteries perched atop them.

Of the 24 original monasteries, 13 remain standing, and six can be visited: the Grand Meteora Monastery, St. Nicholas Monastery, the Monastery of the Holy Trinity, St. Stephen's Monastery, Roussanou, and Varlaam Monasteries. On this trip, you can visit one or two, illuminated by the setting sun.

The tour will also include a visit to the Byzantine church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, an 11th-century temple located beneath the Meteora rocks.

To conclude the day, you'll witness the sun setting behind the monasteries and have free time to admire and photograph the sunset. Following this, we will return you to your hotel in Kalambaka or Kastraki under the cover of night.
