Demetrius was amazing and very knowledgeable. As we drove from Monastery to Monastery, you learned about the history of the town and the importance of the location. While at the Monasteries, you get plenty of time to roam around and see incredible artifacts. what an experience!

Great tour! We went as a family with three kids ages 7-13. Kids did not complain once during the four-hour tour! The bus was clean, the driver was friendly and safe, and the tour guide Christos was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We visited two monasteries and a nunnery, with plenty of stops to take pictures along the way.

Great trip. I highly recommend doing the tour. You can get a local bus but it only goes a little up the mountain and you still have to walk to all the Monasteries. I'm glad I decided on the tour to save my energy to get the steps up to the Monasteries. information given on the bus was great and the guide and driver were super friendly. You also get a free bottle of cold water which was very much appreciated
