Thessaloniki to Meteora Private Day Trip with a Local
Overview
Your day begins with a personal pickup from your hotel in Thessaloniki by an English-speaking driver. Enjoy a scenic 2-hour drive through Thessaly to the breathtaking Meteora. Upon arrival in Kalambaka, you’ll head to the top of the cliffs to explore two of the historic Meteora monasteries, perched dramatically on towering rock formations.
