On 22 June 2019, we took a 4-hour train from Athens to Kalabaka to visit the meteora monasteries and took another 4-hour train back. It was a tour organised by Meteora Thrones. We visited 3 monasteries and see the other 3 from strategic spots. Excellent tour. Thanks to the organizer. Of the 3 we visited viz. the Great Meteoron Monastery, the Variaam and St Stephen monastery, the Great Meteoron Monastery is the biggest and required more effort to reach and has the most impressive views of the plains and rock formation. To reach this Byzantine monastery, we had to up the steps under the midday sun when the temperature reached 34 degree in celsius. But It was worthwhile believe me. The Monastery was built on a steep rock column which rises to a height of more than 400 metres (1,300 ft). The whole Monastery was in good shape. The museum, the open courtyards, the chapel are well preserved. The views looking down from above was astonishing, impressive and breathtaking. Walking inside this medieval treasure, we could not imagine how the ancient monks and nuns built the monastery and how they could live in there without external supports. We could only appreciate their untiring effort and desire to connect human with the Divine. A highly recommended activity when visiting Athens.

Went I was there it was not the high season yet so there weren't many people. I rent an e-bike for a day trip, the owner was super nice and friendly, actually, everything is very nice. They also give me several trip advice. Also, let me charge the bike between trips. Went just before the pandemic strikes, hope everything will go well soon. If you have the chance to visit here, a motorcycle trip will be the best way, highly recommended for everyone who wants to actively explore the beauty of Meteora!

This old stone bridge has the unique advantage of having two waterfalls, one before and one after the bridge. The location is easy to find, but it is much easier to have a car to drive there. It was not crowded when I got there, even though it was on a weekend. Nature around is beautiful. If you are into photography, the setting gives great opportunities for long exposures.

A simple AMAZING musuem, an ode to Greece. A visit will help you either learn or recognise critical items from different centuries of Greek education. Learn about Greek education, Greek toys and childhood through decades or centuries, see how books have been implemented (or not!!!) from last century and get a reminder of Aesop’s tales. Play with children's toys of the previous century and see how schoolchildren were "educated" through 19th and 20th century. The stuff is extremely helpful, we have been offered a detailed and interesting tour that lasted more than an hour. We felt very lucky that we have the chance to find and visit a true diamond like this. Be sure that you don't miss it if you visit Meteora!
