It is one of the most important monuments of Middle Byzantine architecture and art.and has been listed on UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, along with the monasteries of Nea Moni and Daphnion. If the church of the Virgin Mary impresses you with its external appearance, the Katholicon of the monastery surprises you with the multicoloured marble revetments, while the ceilings are illuminated by the mosaics with the golden background (11th century AD).
Meteora
After a celicious breakfast at Arachova or Delphi, start your drive to reach Meteora. Pass by mountains and valleys and reach this unique place. Enjoy a walk and visit up to 3 Monasteries at Meteora, the UNESCO world heritage listed monasteries. Breathtakingly surreal and serenely spiritual, the Metéora monasteries spring forth from a dreamy landscape of rocky megaliths in the plains of the Thessaly Valley. The first hermits came to this far-removed corner of Greece at least as early as the 11th century to withdraw from the world and contemplate divinity. Meteora means "middle of the sky", and with their exalted heights and almost mystical inaccessibility, the Metéora monasteries seem to soar towards heaven and reflect the human striving for holiness. After the fascinating tour of the monasteries, you can enjoy a delightful lunch with Greek traditional dishes in Kastraki village.
Thermopylae
On your way back to Athens, stop at Thermopylae, where one of most epic battles of all times took place. 300 Spartans faced the Persian army and stopped them for 2 days.

I was traveling with my son and we did the 2 day private tour to Delphi and Meteora with Anthony. It was fantastic! I highly recommend this tour company. They are friendly, easy to communicate with and prompt with answering questions. The accommodation was amazing in Arachova and our driver was informative, kind and accommodating! If you are looking for a tour book Crispy Local you won’t be disappointed!

George was our driver and our guide - but neither title does him justice! He was simply fantastic and became a fast friend to our five children and my husband and I. ( I suspect we’ll be exchanging Christmas cards from now on!). He’s knowledgeable, a safe driver and knew how to take things at our pace — and also when to gently encourage our entourage along. We highly recommend George and the entire team at Crispy Local for any touring throughout Greece!

What can I say about this trip! It was the highlight in Greece for our guests ! Unbelievable landscape and great hospitality! We loved Delphi and Arachova with i their narrow alleys and stone build houses. Also the Archaelogical site is one of the best in Greece. Furthermore Meteora with its pillars and unique monasteries is one of the iconic places to visit in Greece! Crispy local and its drivers and tour guides helped us to have the best time in Greece.We totally recommend Crispy Local
