Meteora were named after St. Athanasios the Meteority, proprietor of the Big Meteorou Church. Since 1988, the monasteries of Meteora have a position on the UNESCO’s global heritage monuments catalogue. Built on the top of the rocks, in a high that reaches the 400 meters, Meteora are considered to be one of the greatest creations of nature, and one of the most important monuments of the Orthodoxy.
Today, only 7 of the historical monasteries are being used, 6 from which are open to the public, which are:
• The Anapausa Monastery
• The Rusanu Monastery
• The “Big Meteoro” Monastery
• The Varlaam Monastery
• The Agia Triada Monastery
• The Agios Stefanos Monastery

Absolutely awesome trip! Experience of the lifetime and we will go back there. Perfect weather and even rain didn’t make it worse but better as it was needed after visiting monasteries.
Whole trip was possible thanks to professional and very nice driver Dimitris.
Dimitris knew where to go. Knew how to get there and waited for us in perfect car and all Covid needed equipment.
He made this trip superb in every detail.
Great driving skills not only during dry but especially during waterfall from heaven on the way back!
Meteora Monastery it’s most beautiful place I’ve ever been to and will be back for more..view from there it’s too awesome to capture by any camera.
Made my holidays worth every penny!

My husband and I had an excellent trip to Meteora with Prime Taxi!
Our driver Dimitri was professional, friendly and had great local knowledge. He made sure our journey was as comfortable as possible and provided us with hand wipes, water, wine and fruit! He really went above and beyond.
The drive to Meteora and back was long, but Dimitri made sure it was fun and showed us many beautiful landscapes along the way.
Please note that this tour only includes a car & driver, not a tour guide. If you want a tour of the monasteries, you’ll have to organise these separately.
I would 100% recommend the private tours with Prime Taxi.
