- How many monasteries can I see in one day? Before we answer this question we have to specify that everything should be taken into account. It depends on how fit you are, the transportation and time available, weather conditions, etc. Most people are able to visit between 2 to 4 monasteries per day. The few visitors who visit all 6 of them within one day are missing out on a magical, more slow-paced adventure. We recommend at least 2 days' stay in Meteora.
- What is the Entrance fee for the monasteries? In each monastery, there is an entrance fee of 3 euros per person. Kids up to 12 years old don’t pay entrance fees in the monasteries.
- Is there a dress code to enter a monastery? Appropriate clothing for everyone is required to enter the monasteries. Sleeveless clothing and shorts over the knee for men are prohibited and you‘ll be denied access if dressed that way. For ladies skirts and shawls are available to borrow or buy at the entrance of monasteries in case they don’t have such clothing to cover themselves.
- Should I take the car to drive to monasteries or is better to use other means? There are many reasons not to want to drive while exploring Meteora like if you’re not confident driving on the opposite side of the road, your spouse is a terrible copilot and you just want to have fun instead of arguing; or if you want to enjoy the scenic road and not to feel stress about the narrow and curvy roads. Lack of parking space outside the monasteries is an especially frequent phenomenon during the pick period in the summer. So joining one of our tours might save you a lot of headaches and unwanted distractions.
- We suggest that you have your admission tickets pre-purchased as there is a chance not to find availability, please note that we can buy the tickets for you in advance -under a small service fee.
