    Hello friends , please allow me a small correction of something you said , Meteora means suspended ( in the air - adjective plural ) not floating rocks and it also where the Greek word meteorite comes from . Have fun on your travels ,God bless .

      Ah, thanks for the clarification Greg! The name is very apt, the monasteries do look like they are suspended in the air. Thanks for watching!

    You have been to many beautiful places!! It’s with the heck. Sucks that you couldn’t show us inside. Greta information to know before you get there. What a day. Definitely adding i to our list when we visit. It reminds me of Mount Fanjing in China. I can see why it’s your favorite.
    Cheers to another great video!

      Meteora was mind blowing! Whilst full of tourists when we were there, we hadn't heard of it prior to visiting Greece. The area reminded us a lot of the Tigers nest monastery in Bhutan, albeit a little easier to access!

    Love your videos and just found you online. Curious about your trip to Meteora. How many of the monestaries were you able to hike to from Kalabaka? Is it the Monestary of holy trinity? Is that only accessible by hiking? We are so excited to go.

    • @BucketListTravellers
      @BucketListTravellers  Рік тому +2

      Hi Lauren, so glad to hear you enjoy our videos! We hiked to see all of them over the course of 2 days. The holy Trinity Monastery is the closest to Kalambaka and we visited that one and the St Stephens monastery on our first afternoon from Kalambaka. The next day we walked from Kalambaka through Kastraki to visit the other 4 monasteries. Word of warning, the Great Meteora monastery closes earlier than the other monasteries and we got there with only 30min to spare! Another thing to bear in mind when planning is that certain monasteries will be closed on certain days. It is a really awesome place, have a great time!

    Hello, thank you for sharing the video about the monasteries. I wonder what is the best month to visit Metoera?

    • @BucketListTravellers
      @BucketListTravellers  Місяць тому

      You are most welcome! We would advise against going over the peak summer months (June, July, August) as you will be lost in a sea of fellow tourists under a blistering hot sun. It is best to go in the shoulder periods of May and Sept, where the weather is still comfortably warm and it isn't as busy.

      There certainly are other places with spectacular rock formations, not so many with monasteries on top. Meteora reminded us of the Tigers nest monastery in Bhutan, also a spectacular location.

    All Monasteries are free for the believers all others (especially tourists) must pay 3 euros...and btw they are not pieces of art as well as we don't touch our noses to the icons as sign of respect etc. etc. etc.

    Did they give any reason why there is not filming... I can kinda understand because they ARE religious sites. However, they are clearly tourist destinations as well. they could even upcharge for those that want to film. ha I just wonder what they might be hiding.....I'm a bit cynical perhaps. ~JB
