Just wondering if your tour covers seeing the sunset over the Meteora monasteries? If not, is there another tour that can be added that night to go and see it? What time do we get to Meteora? Also is the island cruising on a public ferry or a private boat? Can you advise the name of the hotels you use so I can check them out?

The tour you've selected is a group tour, and on the first day, you'll arrive at Meteora in the evening, so unfortunately, it won't be possible to catch the sunset. If seeing the sunset around the Meteora rocks is a priority for you, it truly is magical, I would recommend a private tour of the mainland or maybe a different group itinerary that may include time to experience the sunset at Meteora. As for the island cruising, it is not private. It's on a large ferry with other passengers. However, if you're interested, we can arrange a private cruise tailored to your preferences.

What is best Hotel for pick up

We can pick you up from any hotel in Athens. A nice centrally located 4* hotel is Athens Cypria and Astor.

Are you going to pick me from airport to hotel. If not let me know which hotel I need to stay 14th night.

Yes, we can arrange private transfer from Athens airport with cost of 80 euro. We suggest 2 nice hotel at the center of Athens for bus pickup on 15h to start the tour: a/ 4-star 'Cypria Hotel' cost 95 euro including breakfast b/ 3-star 'Arethusa hotel' cost 50 euro including breakfast

Does this tour include hotels?

The hotel is included in the package. The total cost is 1400 euro (700 euro x 2 pax). You can book by clicking 'Book now' to pay for your preferred hotels.

We had an interesting and good tour. The group was ok, not large but not a really small one as well. We enjoyed all sites. The only issue, was the heat at the sites, but the guide made his best to be there as early as possible. In Meteora, the rocks had a lot of people, making it hard to wait in the line only to take a photo. We were lucky as our driver new a less crowded rock, where we managed to take beautiful photos!Show more
