Prepare to pick your jaw up from the floor when you first spot the towering 400-metre-high sandstone pillars jutting out from the earth. The UNESCO-protected Meteora are set against the impressive backdrop of the Pindus Mountain Range – making your pics on this trip a photographer's dream. You'll visit two of the six remaining active monasteries, which look like they're simply floating, perched on the great hunks of rock. After you've learnt about the monks and their 800-year history here, you'll head to Kalambaka, in the foothills of the mountains. Enjoy some free time to wander around the town and grab some lunch before heading back to your accommodation.
