Thermopylae Museum, Thermopylae, Greece We will visit the "Thermopylae Museum", which is next to the monument of King Leonidas, in the historic Thermopylae, dedicated to the 480 BC battle that changed the course of Greek history, as 300 Spartans fought against Persian Empire. The Center presents history as an interactive narrative and discourse: In its three exhibition halls, multimedia applications offer visitors a virtual trip to the time and battlefields of the Persian Wars as described by the ancient historian Herodotus, while the very battle of Thermopylae comes alive at a digital 3D movie.
Meteora, Greece Our driver will pick you up at 08.00 am from your hotel or from Piraeus port. After you meet, you will start this incredible journey following the road towards Thermopylae.
Afterwards we will visit Meteora, having our first stop at the Great Meteoro (or similar) which is the largest and the oldest of all. It was called the monastery that was "suspended in the air" (meteoro), due to the formation of the gigantic rock on top of which it was built.
Our second visit is to the great monastery of St. Stephan. The Monastery of St. Stephan, (or similar) which is a small church built in the 16th century and decorated in 1545. This monastery rests on the plain rather than on a cliff. It was damaged by the Nazis during World War II who believed it was harboring insurgents and was abandoned. Then, nuns took it over and reconstructed it.
Furthermore, you will admire a small treasure of Byzantine and Christian items, at the museum inside the monastery. This wonderful tour will be completed at the picturesque villages of Kalambaka, a small traditional town that is built at the foot of the majestic grey rocks of God, at the shadow of the great Meteora Monasteries, where you will have a traditional Greek lunch.

Our private tour to Meteora was great. We got picked up at our AirBnB at 8am and took about 4 hours to get to our destination. The drive was easy and the van was spacious and comfortable. Our driver/guide, Kyle (Kyriakos), did an excellent job. He informed us that it was his first time taking guests to Meteora but he showed confidence in his driving and the knowledge he shared. He was attentive to our needs, offered suggestions for photo ops and gave restaurant recommendation where we all enjoyed a delectable lunch. Kyle also never rushed us and he gave us enough time to visit the monasteries and enjoy the spectacular panorama. And of course, Meteora is a must see. It’s a true example of a saying “pictures don’t do it justice”.

Five stars is not a high enough rating for our experience with Private Tours Greece! The company provided an exceptional experience for an overnight excursion to Meteora for a truffle hunt and monastery tours. Dimitra communicated promptly and was patience with all my questions. Our driver, Spyros, was not only our driver, but our concierge, information resource officer and comedian.
I enthusiastically recommend Private Tours Greece to anyone looking for a trip provider. We TRULY received more than our money’s worth!
