Great trip, a very long day but well worth it. Our guide Eva was fantastic! We couldn’t taste the honey due to the recent flooding but did an on the bus Tsipouro tasting instead! (one of traditional Greek alcoholic drinks) The monasteries are incredible and definitely worth a visit and the region itself is so unique and absolutely incredible. There were 9 of us on the tour, everyone was wonderful and great company. We also got free water and snacks.
