Welcome to the place where monasteries touch the sky! In this Meteora Greece travel guide vlog, we are taking you along for an epic, fast-paced 24-hour adventure to see one of the most breathtaking landscapes on earth.
Perched on top of massive rock pillars rising 400 meters from the valley floor, the Meteora monasteries in Greece are unlike anything we’ve ever seen — and we’ve been traveling Europe for over 30 years.
In this Meteora Greece travel guide, we walk you through everything you need to know to visit the Meteora monasteries — from the best viewpoints and dress code rules to getting there from Thessaloniki and where to find delicious food and treats. We cover everything you need to plan your own visit — whether you’re day-tripping or staying overnight like we did.
