The tour guide George was very good. He is one of the highlights. With rich knowledge of Orthodox Christian history, he also went above and beyond to explain many interesting details. The hotel at Mateora was below standard. The claim of being 4 star was a lie. The room is fairly basic. There was only one glass for two of us and there was no plastic or paper cups for use. The location was away from the town. The sites were good but the long bus rides were dragging. The first day launch place was good but the second was so bad.
