3.00This was a long bus trip to the Meteora area which was a beautiful place once we got there. A few suggestions - have the driver or a tour guide tell about the areas we traveled through such as history, culture, names of lakes, etc. Spend less time on meals and more time touring the monasteries.
We went on a long bus...

3.00We went on a long bus ride, 3 hours each way, to the beautiful Meteora site. The whole area was stunning and the monasteries were interesting. But our tour guide was very poor. Rude and course and didn’t show much passion for the sites. We were suppose to see 3 monasteries, but only saw two. We were suppose to go to the caves, but she pointed at them from a distance. For amount of time we spent on this tour, only way it would be moderately worth it is if we had a great tour guide or audio tour of some type was included. Food was Ok but not great.
Great experience. Long...

5.00Great experience. Long day but the sites and experience was awesome. This is a one of a kind phenomenon to see. Brunch, lunch & dinner stops were somewhat confusing but it all worked out. Getting a taxi after the tour was a bit frustrating.
Incredible experience - excellent guide and driver

5.00The pick up was a bit confusing with many buses, we had to go around to check our name on each. It would be better if a Viator representative meets us at the pick up spot to make it easier. The experience of Meteora itself was amazing - both the guide and driver were excellent! The dinner on the way back was very rushed, though.
Amazing

5.00A long day but worth it! The long bus ride was divided into stops every couple of hours for bathroom breaks and snacks or meals which gave you a break from the long trip. Amazing sights.
