My name is Dimitrios and I'm a Licensed, Qualified Tour Guide, who's been involved in Tourism since 2013. I was born and raised in Meteora-Kalambaka, where my family has lived continuously since the 18th century. I'm a passionate scholar and lover of history and art, plus a deep connoisseur of Meteora. I love to share my knowledge of Greek culture and introduce visitors to my homeland, discussing our geological phenomenon as well as the construction and art of our monasteries. I organize special historical, religious, cultural and hiking guided tours for small or large groups in these monasteries, offering special routes dedicated to introducing monastic life, the frescoes and architecture of the 14th -16th centuries in order to present the history, religion and traditions of Greece to visitors. I graduated from the National Tourist Guides College in Thessaloniki (two & a half years of professional formation with course subjects: history, art history and archaeology). In addition, I studied for another two & a half years at the college of Religious Tourism & Pilgrimage Tours, devoting myself to go more in depth in the religious art of the Middle Ages. From 1993, I started studying Byzantine painting and I maintain a traditional icon painting and restoration workshop in Meteora. Therefore, I have been passionately involved in the study of medieval art. Tours can also be tailored considering a variety of factors. From group size (I offer from private tours to school groups) to age (whether it be for high school students, college students, elderly people, etc. ) and interests (to focus more on the historical, archaeological, or else). All my tours can be customized according to your requests. Embrace the beauty of Meteora discovering the culture of the monastic life and the medieval period with me as your guide. You will partake in an experience that goes beyond the ordinary. Enjoy every aspect of your stay in Greece! Licensed and Qualified Tourist Guide Graduated from the National College of Tourist Guides in Thessaloniki, Greece. (Formation with course subjects: history, archaeology, art history, anthropology, geology). Graduated from College of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage Tours Graduated from School of Fine Arts, specialized in Woodcarving Studies of medieval - byzantine painting Active icon painter and restorer of antique paintings I can not drive you in my car during the tour but I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Yesterday we had two wonderful tours in Meteroa, Greece by Dimitrios Moulas. From the beginning in the morning to several beautiful Monasteries to the evening tour of several more monastries including a fascinating Orthodox ancient church and a stunning point to watch the sunset atop the mountains, the experience was A1 throughout. More wonderful and educational was Dimitrios's unbelieveable understanding and knowledge of the history of Metora, the Orthodox Church, Greek culture and most intersting, the history of Greece throughout history. Truly the best tour of our 4 week trip throughout Greece and Albania. You won't be disappointed when you choose Dimitrios as your guide. His What'sApp number is +30 697 706 8376. He was very easy to talk with and set up exactly the tour we wanted!

I highly recommend this tour with Dimitrios! He was an excellent guide and brought the monasteries to life. A private tour affords the opportunity to find small places to speak away from the large tour groups, and Dimitrios was a champion at navigating around them. Also, the scenic pullouts were amazing, and I think we were at each one for photos! Thank you Dimitrios for an exceptional experience!

I recently booked a tour of Meteora for my dad with Dimitrios Moulas, and it was fantastic! His deep knowledge of the history and culture, combined with a warm personality, made the experience truly unforgettable. I highly recommend D. Moulas for anyone looking to explore this breathtaking area!

I'll come to pick you up in a Private Citroen Space Tourer or a Mercedes Benz Sprinter of 8 pax capacity with a driver, right at the arranged meeting point. If you have your own car with you, I'd be happy to join you in your vehicle for a different price that of course doesn't require transportation fees, so in this case simply send me a message for a customized tour.
