Train to Kalambaka and a guided Meteora day: enter 3 monasteries, see all 6, visit St Nicholas Badovas caves, plus top photo stops.

“Meteora is mind-blowing and our excellent guide Panos helped us to understand and enjoy it. He knew all the best places to photograph the stunning views and was very knowledgeable. It's a long journey for a day trip but it was very well organised and worth the effort.”

3.Meteora Caves & Monasteries History Day Trip by Train

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 70 reviews · 14 hours (approx.) · from $126

Train to Meteora from Athens, small-group van to three monasteries plus Hermit Caves. Photo stops, Wi-Fi, and epic views.

“Can't really review this tour as it didn't happen through this company. It was communicated that I'd be traveling by bus instead of train and to check in to find my name on a list. It was not communicated however, that I'd be thrown on a bus with approximately 30 other people instead of 15 TOTAL as promised by the tour description. When I messaged to ask about this and pointed out my name was on the list with a different company, I got told there was a problem with the van and to ask the guide on my current tour. I specifically booked this tour due to the smaller…”

5.Meteora Train Trip with Overnight Stay

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 40 reviews · 2 days · from $212

Train from Athens to Meteora, overnight in Kalambaka, guided rock monasteries at sunset, plus day-two choices and photo stops.

“Our overall experience from Athens to Meteora was wonderful and one to be repeated, thanks to "Get Your Guide." The area is such a unique and intriguing place but our guide, Antonias with Meteora Rocks, made all the difference for us. He was so informative and he stayed focused and interpretative about what we were seeing and the history involved. Certainly the peaks and monasteries are outstanding to see but having his expertise on the area gave deep insight into what we were seeing. He really made the trip so much more rewarding for my parents and me. He also gave us choices and options so that we might make…”
