Super amazing places. Lots of history at these monasteries and it's a wonder at how they were able to build them so high up. There's is an admission fee at each monastery. Also there are some light dress codes so please look up. There is parking around each area but be forewarned there are tons of people that visit this and many shuttle buses so you will more than likely have to park a distance and walk. There are also many stairs at a couple of them to get up to so it may be difficult for some. There is a total of 6 monasteries that you can visit. It does get very busy and even arriving earlier it still seemed very full. Would be interesting to go with a tour guide so you can hear more of the details of the place as there is not a lot in English. Such an amazing place and I would highly recommend visiting here if you can.

Amazing. Meteora is world famous for its six Eastern Orthodox monasteries that are perched atop gigantic rock pillars in the mountains. The monasteries are world heritage listed; and are absolutely amazing…. certainly a “must see”. All have been around for some hundreds of years; and it is incredible to imagine that they were built so long ago. First, we visited the Holy Monastery of the Great Meteoron. It is so calm and peaceful although it can be quite crowded at times - so pick your arrival times carefully. There is a very strict dress code to enter (we came prepared) and some of the monasteries are REALLY hard work to get to. Lots of steps; Lots of rests; Lots of sweat … but we made it.

Visited the monastery during a pilgrimage tour of Greece this summer. Before going, we were told by our guide that all the women had to wear skirts and the men long pants. Once we were in the complex, we were in awe at the location being on the top of the mountain. We also learned that before a stone staircase was built, the monks used a pulley system to bring supplies and themselves up to the building. The museum inside showcased the daily lives of the monks and the inner prayer chambers were spectacular. A great experience for everyone.

The monastery i enjoyed the most. It has a very large number of steps and ramps going down and then back up. The art work was very impressive. The views were spectacular.

Visiting the Nunnery of St. Stephen was one of the highlights of my trip to Meteora. Among all the monasteries perched atop the towering rock formations, this one is by far the most accessible. It’s perfect for anyone with mobility concerns — there’s a small bridge leading directly to the entrance, and even wheelchair users can access the site comfortably, which is a rarity for such historic and mountainous locations. The entrance fee is very reasonable at just 5 euros per person, and children up to 12 get in for free. Just a small note for women: you’ll need to wear a skirt or dress to enter. If you forget, no worries — they provide scarves at the entrance that you can wrap around your waist. Inside, the monastery is peaceful and beautifully maintained. The views over the valley are breathtaking, and the interior of the chapel is richly decorated with icons and religious artwork that reflect centuries of devotion. The atmosphere is serene, and the nuns who reside there maintain a quiet dignity and warmth that enhances the experience. One important thing to remember is that the monastery is closed on Mondays, so plan accordingly. All in all, the Nunnery of St. Stephen is a must-see — whether you’re drawn by the spiritual history, the stunning location, or the thoughtful accessibility. Highly recommended!

An absolutely amazing dining experience with the most beautiful backdrop! My wife, eight-year-old daughter, friend, and I booked a 19.00 reservation on an August evening and it was perfect! From the moment we walked inside this spacious beautifully-decorated restaurant, Monika made us feel like family. She remembered and accommodated our friend's gluten allergy. She made our daughter feel so special by talking to her and giving her little gifts. She was the best server we had while spending a month in Greece! The food is fresh, local, and so good. We ordered the feta that gets fired right in front of your eyes. The mushroom soup is the BEST I've ever had. (We ordered a second serving!) The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The stuffed peppers and tomatoes were unique. Once we were done, dessert was brought on the house to our table! So kind!

Absolutely fantastic experience! The food is outstanding—everything is made with fresh ingredients, and the regional feta cheese adds an authentic touch. The lamb chops were a highlight: tender, juicy, and grilled to perfection, giving them a delicious smoky flavor. The setting is just as impressive. The space is charming, with a small fountain that adds a relaxing, picturesque element to the atmosphere. The background music complements the ambiance beautifully. Service was top-notch. The staff were incredibly friendly and efficient. They not only spoke excellent English but also helped me with a few Greek pronunciations, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

We took a stop here after visiting the Meteoras. It is conveniently located in the nearby and it has lots of parking spots. The quality of the food was excellent. Every dish was incredibly tasty. I found here one of the best pork skewers(souvlaki) I’ve ever had. Mousaka was also great.

Fantastic view of the mountains with great food that has fresh ingredients, delicious and served hot! There's a few stray cats roaming around but they don't annoy you, as usual. You have an option to sit outside with a view or inside. The prices are fair, portion sizes are large, and lots of food and drinks item on the menu, including breakfast.

One of the best meals I had in Greece! Definitely YOU HAVE TO TRY THE TRILOGY. Seriously, SO SO GOOD! Worth every penny and more 🤤 They also offer semolina for dessert complementary. Para los hispanohablantes, tenéis qué probar el entrante llamado Trilogy! Increíble! Lo mejor que he probado en Grecia! The staff is so so kind! 100% recommended if you are in Kalambaka
