Everything went according to schedule without any major lines. Since it was early in the day, we were able to explore the Acropolis itself without the crowds. I wouldn't recommend the museum if you have a fear of enclosed spaces. Fortunately, we didn't. It was an interesting time.

An unforgettable trip to Meteora! Breathtaking landscapes, impressive monasteries, and a truly unique atmosphere. Everything was perfectly organized and the experience was amazing from start to finish. The lunch was also excellent — delicious food and a great atmosphere that made the day even more enjoyable. A special thank you to our guide Eva for her kindness, professionalism, and all the interesting explanations during the tour. She made the visit even more enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommended! 🇬🇷

Visiting the Acropolis and the museum was one of the best experiences ever. The line for both were short (due to them being online tickets) and everything felt smooth. Just read the instructions and enjoy!

The places we visited. The journey, the driver and the guide. The fact that everyone was on time so no delays. The price was good.

We went on the English speaking tour and had Vaso as our guide. She was extremely knowledgeable about the monasteries the local area and geology which was an added bonus. Inside the chapels, is the most beautiful artwork and intricate carvings I have ever seen. For me, my favourite places were St Barbara and St Stephan. Everywhere you look there is so much history and so much work that has gone into building these sanctuaries. I 100% recommend this tour. Is it a long day? Yes it is. Is it worth it? 1000% yes. Book the tour, you will not be disappointed.

I would have given it 3 stars, but I couldn't. Basically, it was nice, but: - The driver was giving information at the same time as the audio guide. - We felt like we were going in circles, passing by the same things several times. - It was a bit superficial, but maybe that’s just how the city is.
