Athens Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Majestic Meteora in Kalambaka, Greece

Meteora is located near the town of Kalambaka in central Greece. The six monasteries (of an original twenty-four built between the 13th and 14th centuries) are built on immense natural pillars and hill-like rounded boulders that dominate the local area. We took a very early 5 hour train ride from Athens and reached Kalambaka by noon where we joined a 4 hour tour which we bought a day before in Athens. Upon arriving, we were met by our tour guide who took a small group of us tourists around the Meteora area in a van. We also managed to enter and tour one of the larger monasteries. Bear in mind that to enter one of these amazing monasteries, you need to wear a skirt or wear a scarf around your waist would do the job just fine. It was a long train ride to and fro but you get to see countryside Greece and I wouldn’t miss seeing this beautiful place while in Greece. It was simply amazing!

fantastic trip with my friends thanks to my.trip
