What to expect

On this tour you'll be one of the very few people who are able to see and enjoy this amazing place called Meteora that means “hover between sky and earth", as Halkidiki is one of the limited destinations that is connected by road to this place.

Meteora is the largest archaeological site of Greece and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1989 and an official holy place for Greece since 1995. Meteora is a complex of giant rocks with Christian Orthodox monasteries lie on top of them. The six active Meteora monasteries create a truly inspiring and sensational setting of overwhelming rock formations, with these ancient monuments occupying their picks.

The area is so famous that even Hollywood could not resist shooting a movie there and in 1981 the most famous British spy, 00 7, was climbing amidst the Holy Trinity Monastery for the movie “For your eyes only"! This is the most Instagrammable place, ideal for your photos and a unique experience for you!
