Itinerario
Comenzamos nuestro recorrido temprano en la mañana desde Atenas hasta Meteora. Nuestro conductor lo recogerá de su hotel / apartamento o del aeropuerto / puerto. El tiempo de viaje es de aproximadamente 4,5 horas.
Kalabaka es una ciudad y sede del municipio de Meteora en la unidad regional de Trikala, parte de Tesalia en Grecia. La población era 12.000 en el censo de 2011, de los cuales 8.330 en la ciudad propiamente dicha. Los monasterios de Meteora se encuentran cerca de la ciudad.
Llegamos a Meteora y visitamos hasta tres Monasterios. Impresionantes a primera vista, los Monasterios son de gran importancia cultural y natural. Separadas por terremotos, erosionadas por el viento y el agua durante millones de millones de años, estas inmensas rocas son una auténtica obra maestra de la madre naturaleza. Meteora es una formación rocosa en el centro de Grecia que alberga uno de los complejos de monasterios ortodoxos orientales más grandes y construidos con mayor precipitación. Los seis (de los 24 originales) monasterios están construidos sobre inmensos pilares naturales y rocas redondeadas en forma de colina que dominan el área local. Meteora está incluida en la Lista del Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO y el nombre significa "alto", "elevado" y está relacionado etimológicamente con meteoro. Por favor, vístase con modestia. Se sugiere que las mujeres usen faldas largas y mangas largas. Si no tiene, se le dará una falda al entrar.
Tiempo libre para almorzar en una taberna tradicional griega con sus amigos y familiares o ir de compras a Kastraki, un pintoresco pueblo cerca de Meteora.
Thermopylae es un lugar en Grecia donde existió un paso costero estrecho en la antigüedad. Deriva su nombre de sus manantiales calientes de azufre. En la mitología griega, las Puertas Calientes es una de las entradas al Hades. Las Termópilas es el lugar de una batalla entre las fuerzas griegas y las fuerzas invasoras persas, conmemorada por Simónides de Ceos en el famoso epitafio: "Ve y dile a los espartanos, forastero que pasa, que aquí, obedientes a sus leyes, mentimos". Thermopylae es la única ruta terrestre lo suficientemente grande como para soportar un tráfico significativo entre Lokris y Thessaly. Ir de norte a sur a lo largo de la costa este de la península de los Balcanes requiere el uso del paso, por lo que las Termópilas han sido escenario de varias batallas.
Al dejar atrás la magnífica Meteora, no pasemos por alto la Batalla de las Termópilas de 480 a. C., que ha sido durante mucho tiempo el tema de la motivación cultural, ya que es quizás la última batalla militar más famosa de todos los tiempos. El monumento del Gran Leónidas, rey de Esparta, en las Termópilas, adornará nuestro camino de regreso a Atenas al final de la tarde. Las Termópilas son mundialmente famosas por la batalla que tuvo lugar allí entre las fuerzas griegas (en particular, los espartanos, lacidemonios, tebanos y tespios) y las fuerzas invasoras persas, conmemorada por Simónides en el famoso epitafio, "Ve y dile a los espartanos, un extraño que pasa , Que aquí, obedientes a sus leyes, mentimos ".
Leonidas era un rey de la ciudad-estado griega de Esparta, y el 17 de la línea Agiad, una dinastía que afirmaba descender del semidiós mitológico Heracles y Cadmo. Leonidas era hijo del rey Anaxandridas II. Sucedió a su medio hermano, el rey Cleomenes I, en el trono en c. 489 a.C. Leonidas tuvo una participación notable en la Segunda Guerra Persa, donde llevó a las fuerzas griegas aliadas a una última posición en la Batalla de las Termópilas (480 a. C.) mientras intentaba defender el paso del ejército persa invasor; murió en la batalla y entró en el mito como líder de los 300 espartanos. Si bien los griegos perdieron esta batalla, pudieron expulsar a los invasores persas al año siguiente.
Comenzamos nuestro camino de regreso a Atenas a última hora de la tarde. El viaje dura aproximadamente 4,5 horas.

Great experience, it’s a journey but completely worth it. You’ll never see anything like it, our tour guide Nick was fantastic, it’s a good 4 hour drive from Athens, you definitely get a quick stop on the way there and back, we were able to do 2 of the monasteries, then to a look out that has the most amazing views perfect for photos! We had lunch at a Tavern that was delicious. Then the journey back, it’s a full day but so worth it. Pack some snacks and water and go enjoy a drive through beautiful Greece and learn about the scenery.

Best tour of our entire Greece trip! The private driver “Mike” was wonderful, full of knowledge, fun and great with our young two boys on the trip. Navigating through crazy Athens traffic like a pro and out to the monastery’s on the scenic highway I felt we were in great hands with a real professional, I’ve been on some trips in other counties where I would be on the edge of my seat worried the time about going so far and back, Mike made this trip from start to finish so relaxing and at the end I felt like we were all family. Would highly recommend if making a full day of going to see the monasteries on the tops of mountains you request Mike as your guide and chauffeur!!!

This is the best way to experience Meteora and is well worth the extra cost of a private tour. Our guide Mike was fantastic! He was very professional, accommodating and incredibly knowledgeable on the historical and current aspects of the trip. Mike provided us with great tips and suggestions for visiting each monastery that saved us time and allowed us to enjoy our experience to the fullest. I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in visiting Meteora and if Mike is your guide, it will be an even better experience.
