Best excursion you can get. Lovely guid Rita can tell you everything about Thessaloniki and about Meteora. She tried everything to give you value for your money. Excellent driver too called Tomás. The views at Meteora are breathtaking.

The German texts are very Albanian. It would be enough if the history of the city and its sights were told.
