Description

Experience pure enjoyment in nature with our Hiking and Scramble Tour of the Great Saint Rock. Our top priority is your safety as you explore the stunning Meteora region.

With a small group of only 3 people per mountain guide, this tour offers a personalized and exclusive experience for all. Anyone with a good fitness level can join us for this moderate to challenging hike that takes you through breathtaking landscapes and offers panoramic views from the rock of Great Saint to the surrounding area.

And as the sun begins to descend, getting ready to touch the mountain ridges we’ll bring you to a magical spot to enjoy the most captivating sunset views. Sitting on the edges of cliffs you will feel the evening cool breeze blowing through giant cliffs rising above the valley. Allow your senses to explore moment by moment the dimming of the light as the sun sinks behind the mountains. It will be the perfect Meteora adventure at the UNESCO World Heritage site, an awe-inspiring tour to be remembered forever!
