Trip to Meteora from Ioannina (return) - Giannis was an absolute legend! Hands down, the best tour guide we’ve had. He went above and beyond what you’d expect from a tour guide, he drove us from Ioannina to Meteora, where we joined up with a local tour which had an itinerary of 3 monasteries (Grand Meteoron, Agia Barbara, and Varlaam). On the way there, he gave us a comprehensive overview of the local history, pointed out key sites along the route and persevered whilst we practiced our Greek with him. Shortly after the tour, Giannis met us back at the travel office in Kalambaka (the village closest to Meteora), from there he added a few extra pit stops on the way back to Ioannina, including the incredible wax museum in Ioannina and the ticket office where we needed to buy our bus tickets for the next day. Please don’t hesitate to book with them.

Suspended in Air - The tour we took to Meteora was wonderful! It was by far the smartest thing we did on our trip. We were picked up at our hotel and everything was terrific.

A trip of a lifetime. - I travelled to Athens from England with a friend. We then took a coach trip to Ioannina and began our journey to Meteora by being picked up by Ioannis. He delighted us with facts about Meteora and the interesting anecdotes about Greece’s wonderful history. I enjoyed the trip immensely, it was truly a breath taking place and a wonderful experience. Definitely five stars from me and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Thank you so much, Ioannis.
