Gita di un giorno intero a Meteora da Salonicco
Descrizione
Ci sono pochi paesaggi che entusiasmano i viaggiatori tanto quanto una visita all'incantevole Meteora. Le gigantesche rocce con il volume e l'altezza mozzafiato, che si ergono bruscamente sul bordo di una grande pianura, interrompono il paesaggio liscio come se fossero irreali, fanno parte di un imponente fenomeno geologico che non puoi perdere l'occasione di osservare da vicino. Inoltre, l'intervento umano in questo scenario inquietante è sorprendente: i monasteri costruiti nel punto più alto delle rocce sembrano librarsi tra la terra e il cielo, tra l'elemento umano e quello divino. Nel 1989, Meteora è stata aggiunta alla lista del Patrimonio Mondiale dell'UNESCO.
Opzioni tour
Itinerario
Raggiungiamo Meteora verso le 12:30; questo affascinante complesso di enormi rocce scoscese di stendardo, che sorge in prossimità dei primi rilievi della più lunga sierra greca, Pindos (la “spina dorsale” della Grecia). Visitiamo due dei sei Santi Monasteri operativi a seconda del programma di ciascuno. Durante le nostre visite ai monasteri facciamo una breve sosta per ammirare la splendida vista panoramica dei Santi Monasteri dall'alto e catturare la mistica del paesaggio. L'area selvaggia e inavvicinabile con le arenarie di oltre 65 milioni di anni è maestosa e allo stesso tempo soprannaturale e divina poiché fino ad oggi la loro origine non può essere spiegata. Successivamente, ci godiamo la nostra tradizionale pausa pranzo greca a Kastraki, nella zona di Kalampaka, davanti alla vista della stupefacente Meteora. Partiamo per Salonicco verso le 15:30 e facciamo un'ultima sosta per 20 ΄ per un caffè e riposo. Rientriamo verso le 19:00, facendo le stesse soste da dove siamo partiti.

Fantastic Meteora tour! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Our guide, EvaM10, was professional, very kind, friendly, and very informative. Everything was clearly explained, the lunch stop was great, and Meteora was absolutely breathtaking. An unforgettable experience—highly recommended!
Excellent experience! Everything exactly as expected and was clearly explained on the website. There was enough time to visit each monastery, to look around, and to take pictures of the extraordinary landscape. We stopped at a restaurant stop on the way there - and on the way back - with bathrooms, bakery, coffee and souvenirs. Prices and quality was good. Lunch spot was also very good. Prices a bit higher as expected in a touristic pla e, but quality was high and staff was friendly and efficient. Overall an excellent experience if you only have 1 day to visit meteora. The guide was friendly and informative. Always very clear in pickup times and about what to expect. And some extra tips.
We did the Meteora day trip, and à Thessaloniki Food walking tour with Ammon Express. Both tours were well-organised, expertly guided, and great value for money. Cee-Cee was the Meteora guide, she was efficient, friendly, knowledgeable, and on top of every detail. The coach was comfortable, and the itinerary was perfect. The guide for our Food Walking Tour, I think it was Adrianna, was also very good. She was knowledgeable and friendly, and the tour was very enjoyable. We would have no hesitation in recommending these Ammon Express tours if you’re visiting Thessaloniki.
A very well organised and run day trip to Meteora, with a lovely and informative guide (Eleni). We had a great day and highly recommend.
We wanted to go to Meteora for a while. Booked this trip in plenty of time to avoid any disappointment. We were met on time by Eleni and travelled in a comfortable air conditioned coach. Stop off half way for a comfort break and refreshments. Whilst travelling Eleni pointed out things of interest. Arriving at Meteora it was more breathtaking than the pictures could possibly capture. We had plenty of time and opportunity to take photos. We went for lunch in a fantastic panoramic restaurant where the food was slightly more expensive than Thessaloniki but was of a good quality. Stop off half way again on the way back into Thessaloniki for a comfort break. It was a long day but well worth it and I would recommend this trip as a must if you’re coming to Thessaloniki.
This tour was absolutely amazing and had everything you could want – stunning monasteries, breathtaking views, and a really well-planned itinerary. Cici was a fantastic guide, sharing lots of interesting information in a friendly and engaging way. Although the tour lasts over 10 hours, the time flew by because there was always something incredible to see. I'd definitely recommend it!
Incredible views and a comfortable bus! The mountains and rock formations were unlike anything I have ever seen!
A long day, but absolutely worth it to experience the incredible monasteries of Meteora. We visited two monasteries and stopped at a beautiful viewpoint overlooking the others — a highlight of the day. There was one restroom break on the way to Meteora and another on the return, and the monasteries themselves also have facilities, which made the journey comfortable. The time allocated at each monastery felt adequate, and we never felt rushed while exploring. Our guide was informative and approachable, adding helpful context throughout the day without overwhelming the experience. Lunch was arranged at a specific restaurant that isn’t near any alternatives, so there are no other dining options. The food was decent, fairly priced, and served quickly — we were able to finish within about an hour. Overall, it’s a long day, but the sights of Meteora are spectacular and absolutely worth the trip. Highly recommend.
The tour itself was okay overall, but it was ruined at the end. Instead of stopping for lunch in the city, as stated in the tour description, we stopped in the middle of nowhere with only two restaurants to choose from, and the guide was clearly steering people toward one of them. As our break was coming to an end, it started pouring rain. Although the driver was inside the bus, he wouldn’t let us in and told us to wait outside by the road. To make matters worse, the guide herself came back late.
Wonderful experience no one should miss in Thessaloniki . Wish there were more than two monasteries to visit. The lunch was very delicious at the Greek taverna .
