12 Hours Round trip from Corfu Easy pace

The journey

Trip highlights
  • 01 Enjoy a private tour with a luxury vehicle and professional driver
  • 02 Visit at least two monasteries in Meteora
  • 03 Make stops at interesting places for visits and photos
  • 04 Experience Meteora's dramatic rock formations and spiritual heritage

A trip to Meteora offers the unique experience of nature's grandeur in conjunction with history, architecture, and man's everlasting desire to connect with the Divine. From the early Christian era, Meteora's vertical cliffs were regarded as the perfect place to achieve absolute isolation, discover peace and harmony, and support man's eternal struggle for spiritual elevation. This truly inspiring setting of overwhelming rock formations is much more than an exquisite landscape - it is a pilgrimage to a holy place for Christians worldwide and a preservation ark for the 2000-year-old Christian Orthodox creed.

Day Trip from Corfu to Meteora and Kalambaka

  • Departure from Corfu at 07:30.
  • Arrive at Igoumenitsa port at 09:15 and drive to Kalambaka.
  • Arrive in Kalambaka at 11:45. Free time to rest for 30 minutes.
  • Drive up to the Meteora rocks, with photo stops on the way. First, visit Agios Stefanos Monastery for 30 minutes. It is the most accessible monastery, as instead of steps, there is a small bridge to cross. It is ideal for visitors with low mobility.
  • Our second visit is to the Holy Monastery of Great Meteoro for 1 hour. It is the biggest and oldest of the monasteries in Meteora. To enter the monastery, you need to climb about 160 steps carved into the rock. The monastery was founded in the middle of the 14th century.
  • Later, you will have free time in Kalambaka for lunch.
  • Departure from Kalambaka at 15:30.

Remark: Once per week, the monasteries are closed on different days. In that case, we might visit a different monastery.

Alternative itinerary: Visit one monastery in Meteora and, instead of lunch in Kalambaka, visit and have lunch in Metsovo town on the Pindos mountains near the highway.
