        Amazing experience
        I had an amazing time on my sunset photography tour!! I am a casual photographer using an iPhone and Christos taught me so much. I booked a group sunset tour but was the only booking, so I got 1:1 attention. Christos took me to some great viewpoints that I never would have made it to on my own. This was truly a highlight of my trip.

        Incredible experience, extraordinary photos!!!
        My husband and I booked a 1 hour photo shoot with Christos and Konstantina at sunset and we absolutely loved it! They were so friendly and made the whole experience really easy. Their communication was great. Booking in the evening was perfect, not just because of the sunset, but because going up to the monasteries after they’re closed means the crowds are gone and you get to experience the peaceful surroundings. We had photos in 2 locations, and the photos are absolutely stunning, we were blown away! We got a range of wide shots and close ups, different poses etc. Anyone considering booking this should do it immediately, you won’t regret it!

        Beautiful family photoshoot!
        We loved our family photoshoot with Konstantina and Christos. They took us to beautiful views high in the hills of Meteora and captured great photos for us to remember our trip by. They had lots of good ideas and poses, but also worked with us if we wanted something specific. They were flexible on time with us depending on our schedule and the weather. They were so warm and kind to our children as well. Afterwards, we got our digital image library quite quickly, which was great. I highly recommend them!

        Elevated My Skills!
        Highly recommended for beginners and advanced photographers alike! We learned not only composition and exposure techniques, but also phone and camera hacks that vastly improved our pictures. Chris patiently reviewed our pics on the spot and gave great feedback. After two decades of shooting primarily in aperture-priority mode, I’ve finally found the confidence to use manual exposure! Thanks for the valuable lesson!

        Unique experience!, great Christos'!
        had only one night in Meteora and decided to take a night photo tour with them: best decision ever! On my tour I was on solo, hence I had the chance to enjoy Christos' company and experience at their full. Christos is a professional photographer, an excellent and patient teacher and also a pleasant and cheerful person. Despite not optimal weather conditions, he managed to let me enjoy the tour at its best. am an intermediate-level photographer and he taught me Ssome useful tricks and tips regarding landscape and night photography. The tour was completed then by the astonishingly beautiful landscape of Meteoras: an unique place in the whole world. I recommend everyone to visit this wonderful place and every photographer to book a tour with Meteora Photo Tour!

        It was everything I had wished for. I asked for a surprise proposal photoshoot in Meteora during the sunset and they delivered. The communication was great and they were very flexible. The team were real professionals and made our moment truly magical. Thank you for everything!

        There is no better way to photograph Meteora
        We had an excellent 2-day tour from Athens to Meteora with Christos and Konstantina. The communication about the logistics from Meteora were great - reliable and easy to follow. They booked us into comfortable 1st class cabins on the train, and a luxury coach for the return trip. Photographically, Christos was great. For me, as a keen amateur enthusiast, I was looking for someone to show me all the usual postcard locations, but also other hidden locations known only to locals. Furthermore, he was able to take us to locations where the photographic perspectives were interesting, at times when the light was good, and to avoid crowds. We were able to shoot until after sunset, and the following day from before sunrise. Christos was also able to teach some new aspects of photography appropriate to the scenes. I am shooting with 2 Z9 Nikon bodies, but my wife was using an iPhone, and for both of us, Christos showed us techniques relevant to each device. The food and accommodation were also very comfortable for our 2 day stay, at the Monastiri Guesthouse, and dinner at the new Ambrosia restaurant at Kalambaka. Eating and talking with Christos and Konstantina gave us a sense of Greek hospitality and a richer understanding of life and culture in Greece. Just wonderful to get to know some locals, whilst doing something we are passionate about - photography in one of the iconic sites of the world. All in all, this was a perfect way for anyone interested in photography to be able to see and shoot the amazing location which is Meteora.

        Amazing photography tour in Meteora!!
        We did a photo tour with Konstantina recently and it was amazing!! She was funny and patient, with a great explanation of photography tips and knowledge of the area. I was shooting with a camera and my husband had an iPhone and she made sure to teach us both how to use them to the best effect. They were great at communication and helped me prepare and pack for the trip in advance too. We had a great time and would definitely recommend doing a tour - I only wish we had time to do a full day or multi-day tour! Highly, highly recommend!

        The Best Photo tour of Meteora
        This place is absolutely amazing! Truly. My wife and I started our 3 week tour of Greece with this two day photo tour of Meteora with our hosts, Chris & Konstantina. They were the best hosts ever. Both very friendly and full of information. Konstantina met us when we arrived and made sure we were settled in our hotel; the very nice Storyteller Hotel. Later they took us out for sunset shots of the amazing Meteora area. Then they took us out to dinner at a local area. As dinner companions they were wonderful, with an extensive knowledge of the area as well as just being awesome company. The following morning Cris met us for a chilly morning sunrise tour of the area. Providing us with hot coffee for the chilly daybreak; having backup warm outerwear for those who forgot to wear a sweatshirt (like me!); and having an amazing knowledge of photographic technique, (regardless of your level of expertise) are some of the things that separate this couple from the rest out there. Chris helped me with my 35mm camera and had some great instruction for my wife’s iPhone camera. Those phones take some amazing pics! If you want a great photographic tour of this spectacular area, book this tour. This couple really know what they’re doing. And since Chris actually grew up in the area, he drove us to places and shot sites that we would NEVER have been able to find on our own - even with GPS! Book this tour and you will absolutely NOT regret it. It is worth every cent.

        Highly Recommended Photo Tour in Meteora
        My wife and I had an incredible experience with Meteora Photo Tour, guided by Christos and Konstantina. They provided exceptional service and knowledge, taking us to curated locations for capturing the stunning Meteora rock pillars with the diverse lighting of sunrise and sunset. After our initial morning shoot, Christos extended his expertise over breakfast to review our shots and teach us techniques to edit our photos. After the sunset shoot, he hosted us at dinner at one of his favorite family restaurants which allowed us to savor local cuisine; it is doubtful that we would have been able to find this type of restaurant with such generous hospitality on our own. The second day's trip was filled with enjoyable conversations, and the photos we made of bridges and landscapes were outstanding. My wife and I were at different skill levels and both learned a great deal which showcases Christos' diverse teaching skills. The dinners at family restaurants and the thoughtful gift of Angela's favorite wine made us feel like leaving friends. Highly recommend this tour; it's simply amazing! Their iPhone camera tips, composition, and editing suggestions were invaluable.

        Gift yourself a family photo session with Christo and Thomas
        We hired Christo and Thomas for a one hour family photo session while we were in Meteora. We were blessed they had availability for a morning session with only two days notice. Both gentlemen were pure joy during the session. On our way out of town, my husband spontaneously shared that he thought they were both charming. They did an excellent job directing us and putting our family at ease. We received our gallery and are blown away by the quality of the images. The positioning of subjects, the composition of the overall scene, the creativity of angles, is twas all incredible. If they were local, we would use them on a regular basis. I highly recommend handing over the responsibility for photography at this gorgeous site to these professionals. You will have the best memories captured with priceless keepsake images. I can't recommend them enough.

        Awesome Meteora Experience
        We booked their 2-day All-inclusive Photography Tour from Athens to Meteora by train. It was a remarkable experience. We were enthralled by the stunning and breathtaking landscapes, the knowledgeable, warm and personable team of Konstantina, Christos and Tom, and the overall experience. This tour provided the perfect platform for us to explore and capture the awe-inspiring beauty of Meteora. Konstantina, Christos and Tom were not only professional but also very warm and friendly. They brought us to spots with the best vantage points for capturing Meteora’s iconic monasteries, magnificent rock formations, and wonderful sunset and sunrise vista. We only used our iphone cameras, but they gave us guided and helpful tips. Christos showed us features of our iphone cameras and recommended photo apps. And they took photos of us as well. The itinerary was relaxed and well-paced, giving us ample time to take photos and immerse ourselves in the beauty and serenity of the surroundings. And the team’s friendly demeanor made the tour feel more like an adventure with new friends rather than a structured tour. They shared historical facts and personal anecdotes. Konstantina was very helpful and responsive, and patient with all our inquiries, from the time we booked until we left. The tour included snacks, meals and drinks; they made recommendations but they let you choose. The restaurants they brought us to were delightful with delectable food. The vehicle used (pick-up and drop-off at the Kalambaka train station and during the tour) was clean, well-maintained and comfortable. The accommodation provided (Monastariki Guesthouse) was clean, spacious and comfortable. It had a balcony that provided a wonderful view of the rock formations. The hotel staff were pleasant and welcoming. Marveling at the tranquility and awesome panorama of Meteora would have been enough for us, but we were glad we took this photo tour. The tour was a good combination of photography, exploration and cultural immersion and it was an unforgettable and enjoyable experience.

        3 Day Private Customized Tour - Simply the Best
        I don’t know where to begin. I’d give this 10 stars if I could. I reached out to this company because I wanted to arrange a multi-day custom tour. Konstantina worked with me to come up with an all inclusive plan. She booked the train tickets, hotel accommodations, and had dinner with us each night with thoughtful snacks and gestures along the way. She and her husband Christos bend over backwards to ensure an utmost fantastic experience. My mother has mobility issues and they worked extra hard to keep her comfortable. Christos and I were able to venture to a few hard to reach places while Konstantina and my mother viewed some different viewpoints. The knowledge they have of the area made the photo tour informative from a history standpoint. The photography knowledge Christos has helped me and my mother learn our cameras, get comfortable, and photograph some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. We did a sunrise/daytime photo tour of Meteora, a sunset tour, went into various Monestaries, and also drove to many small villages as well as the Zagori area with waterfalls and bridges. The generosity Konstantina and Christos displayed truly warmed my heart and made this an unforgettable experience. Skip the large groups on buses and see the magic with these guys. They are from the area and will patiently work with you to help you get the best pictures. We used our iPhones in addition to our cameras. I learned so many tips and tricks with the iPhone! Don’t think you need an actual camera to participate. They will take you to traditional restaurants with the most delicious food and show you the family values and warmth of the Greek culture.

        Tina & Chris are amazing. Even so the photography insights they share about Meteora are phenomenal. Award winning locations, great guides, stunning overall. We went to some out of the way locations that were just spectacular. BTW..they have incredible food in Kalampaka & Meteora.

      This was one of the highlights of our 3 week vacation in Greece, so glad we did it! We booked a full day photography tour with Konstantina and Christos, from mid-morning until after sunset. We took many photos on our iPhones (attached to review) and DSLR. Christos gave me tips and pointers on my DSLR, and I'm feeling comfortable shooting in manual again. Konstantina is wonderful and her English is great, we learned about the history of Meteora (Konstantina and Christos grew up in the area). It felt like we were good friends with locals for the day!

      We only went inside one monastery, but that was totally fine by us as it gave more time for taking great photos outdoors- would just recommend visitors set aside a half day or full day to explore the monasteries on their own time.

      Highly recommend!!

      We had an amazing day photographing every monastery from different vantage points, many which we would not have found on our own. The included personal tour guide through one of the monasteries was a bonus. We loved the whole day, and will remember it as one of our best days of our trip. Thank you!

      Everything was flawless from the booking to the initial meeting at the railway station, to the sight seeing and perfect photo opportunity for the different times of the day.

      Chris is an excellent photographer and guide, and his wife Kostantina is very knowledgable about the history of the sites/monasteries. They are a wonderful couple, easy to get along with and comfortable to be around.

      The Meteora sites were so amazing that we decided to stay overnight to see the sunset. Chris and Kostantina were happy to help with finding accommodations and suggesting a place for dinner.

      This was one of the highlight of our trip and we would highly recommend Meteora Photo Tour company for your photo & Meteora and area experience.

      We had a great day with Christos and Konstantina learning about Meteora's famous monasteries, enjoying the beautiful scenery, and taking photos! My wife and I only had one full day to spend in the area, so as an avid photography hobbyist I wanted some help to find some of the most photogenic spots. I'm also always interested in improving my skills by learning from more experienced photographers. Chris and Konstantina put together a great day for my wife and me that fully delivered on all of those objectives. Our day started with a sunrise photo shoot from a location looking over the city and surrounding mountains. After a short break, we reconnected to spend a few hours touring and taking photos of the monasteries, with a detour to a great restaurant for lunch (some of the best food we had in Greece). We wrapped up the day with some sunset and night photography of the monasteries and the city lights down in the valley (as well as a spectacularly violent thunderstorm at nightfall!)

      Overall, a fantastic experience with some very gracious people whose company we thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommended if you are a photographer visiting Meteora with limited time, or if you want some great photos of you and your family as souvenirs of your trip.

      I found Chris via instagram and we immediately connected through WhatsApp. I was surprised by the price and services offered and was hesitant before the tour. But he picked me up at the hotel, he was on time and very polite. He has a nice minivan which has plenty of space and its clean and neat.

      Chris knows EVERYTHING about the area. I had a list of photo places i wanted to visit and he took me to all those places AND few more hidden spots. I am so blown away with the photos we got. He taught me about the angles and proper camera settings we should be shooting at. Extremely helpful with limited time in hand.

      In addition to amazing tour, I received dozens of high quality pictures of myself.

      HIGHLY recommend him if you are in the area. He is the best in Meteora!

      There is nothing in Greece more beautiful and captivating than the pinnacles of Meteora, where monasteries sit impossibly on the tops of tall, finger-like peaks. With limited time to scout the locations for my passion of timelapse photography, I was fortunate to engage Christos and Konstantina. My wife and the photographer's wife got along so well we enjoyed both a traditional lunch and dinner with them and hugged each other at the end of the long day's tour. Everyone should be so fortunate as to have this couple as a guide to this most spectacular site.I highly recommend this for any photo enthusiast, and particularly those who are interested in better viewpoints, and in timelapse photography.
