METEORA
Meteora is a one-of-a-kind monastic state that has emerged amidst a mighty rocky landscape. It is one of the most extraordinary sights in Greece with its special aura and majestic atmosphere. Many hermits have chosen Meteora as their home, to spend the remaining years of their lives close to God, renouncing earthly possessions and devoting themselves to prayer and spiritual life. The cliff-top monasteries are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On this tour you will visit 2 of the 6 active monasteries: Great Meteora (Holy Transfiguration) or Barlaam (All Saints) and Rusana (St. Barbara) or St. Stephen.
