So close to the clouds: Near the town of Kalambaka lies the fascinating forest of towering rock cliffs home to the so-called ‘Floating Monasteries’. Perched on top of the rocky towers is arguably the most spectacular complex of Greek Orthodox monasteries.
The Meteora Monasteries have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1988. One of the best ways to explore this holy site and the surrounding natural paradise is on an e-bike tour.
On our ‘Good Morning Meteora Monasteries’ e-bike tour, you explore the sacred world of Meteora at a relaxed pace. Your guide leads you along a safe, traffic-free route to all the places worth seeing in the area. Along the way, you experience an extraordinary and unique landscape. Insider tips and centuries-old stories included!
The highlights of the tour include breath-taking panoramic views and a visit to two Meteora monasteries. The beauty of these architectural masterpieces and their mystical atmosphere is captivating! This half-day tour is especially suitable for you if you are visiting Meteora for the first time.
This tour is available every day of the year starting at 9:00 am.
And off we go! We head west to Kastraki, where the archaeological area of Meteora begins, and we soon visit our first monastery. The entire complex consists of 24 individual monasteries and hermitages, of which only six are still inhabited today.
The two monasteries we visit on our tour differ depending on the day of the week as the six monasteries are each open to visitors on separate days. Each of the monasteries has a rest day on a different day, so they are never all open at the same time. However, we always aim to visit at least one monastery and one nunnery on our tour.
During this relaxed tour, we stop briefly at all the important sights where your knowledgeable guide shares exciting stories, insider insights, and fascinating facts about the region and its rich history. You are sure to be amazed by the geological, religious, and cultural highlights we see along the way!
There are plenty of opportunities and ample time to enjoy the incredible views and take wonderful photos. The towering rocks with their monasteries floating at dizzying heights are a spectacle that never ceases to amaze.
Throughout the tour, your guide shares the secrets of Meteora with warmth and charm. There is more than enough time to enjoy both visits to the monasteries and to take photos of the beautiful surroundings.
