Since we usually have some part of our seaside vacations in Greece, for us it's a very good tradition to visit this area because we are Orthodox Christians, firstly, and since the very atmosphere, freshness of air, perception of freedom and the very views are so impressive to be described that it's necessary to feel them all at site, secondly. Better to plan your visit by some rented car if you wish some real independence from any group, be there before the very opening and to visit as many monasteries as you want. We started our trip there from Neoi Poroi at some about 6.00 a.m.; roads are very good and almost empty within these hours and therefore, at 7.30 we had our short rest at the gas station when monasteries were on our horizon :). This gas station ERIV (will be at the same side of the highway you'll follow) is very suited for this :) - nice veranda for grabbing coffee, very amicable owner Greek-Italian or Italian-Greek makes it very tasty :) and prices for the very gasoline are good. After refilling your car just in 20-25 minutes you'll be over that famous touristic sight plate where without any interference you'll have as much time as you wish to admire the whole valley beneath, the rocks around and monasteries over them - so nice to be there when there is none of any group tourists :). Then continue your way to Great Meteoro as the farthest monastery in your route and from there it's better to start your acquaintance with them. We had visited three monasteries (Meteoro, Varlaam and Roussanou) and thus, this consequence confirmed to be the most logic :) - and when the majority of all groups just begin to overcrowd the area you'll already be at Roussanou after patient, calming and non-packed visits to all planned places including the museum at Varlaam and souvenir shops in all three. Summing up, the very place is very inspiring for life and really boosts everyday moods :). At noon following these itinerary and schedule you'll be free to start your way back to the seaside :).
