★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fantastic experience. Wonderful place to pay homage to Saint Loukas. Large monastery so allow at least 2 hours to walk through and see every detail. Inviting outside square to enjoy a coffee and reflect on your visit.
Make sure to visit the gift stores and support the local traders who use the profits to support the monastery.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A nice stop on the way to Athens. The view is stunning and the monastery's atmosphere is soothing.
The Transfiguration chapel is a very peaceful spot.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Roughly 40 minutes drive from Delphi.
Worth a visit for the lovely mosaics and murals and the amazing views. But a number of areas that seemed like they normally would be open were closed off. Admission appeared to be free unless you wanted to visit the museum building, we paid to be nice (only 4 euros each) but skipped it since we were short on time. There’s a small snack and museum shop on site.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing exemple of Byzantine culture and religion. Now we can see not only perfect wall frescoes and mosaic from X cent., but also olives maschine, monastic garden, cells, cemetery. The place of cult of St Luka of Steira from IX/X cent.
