    We had a great walking tour and thoroughly enjoyed our introduction to the city. We didn’t quite do the last 3 listed places but were left in their vicinity. This was entirely our fault as we had been chatting to Kostas throughout, who excelled in his knowledge and professionalism, so we actually ran over by a good half hour. Fabulous introduction to this city. Would highly recommend.

    We boked our tour the day before we went and it was no problem. Our guide, Fania, was excellent. Knowledgeable, friendly and with very good English. Two hours was enough to get an overview of some of the most important sites in lower Thessaloniki, and gave us enough of an overview to tour the city at our own pace, seeing what interested us most, over the next couple of days. The tour didn't cover upper Thessaloniki (the old town) so make sure you do that too. The tour was also very good value. One thing to be careful of, when we booked, the website gave one location for the meeting point but when the overnight confirmation email came, it gave a different location (the White Tower) which was the correct one. Overall, highly recommended.

    I arrived in Thessaloniki by cruise ship and joined this walking tour, starting right in front of the White Tower, it was a fantastic experience! The guide was friendly and shared so many interesting stories about the city’s history. We walked through ancient ruins, beautiful churches, and busy markets, all within a few hours. I loved learning about Thessaloniki’s mix of cultures and past.

    Taking this walking tour in Thessaloniki with our guide Fenia was amazing! We started by the White Tower and then explored so many interesting places. Fenia was really knowledgeable and made the history of the city easy to understand and fun to listen to. I enjoyed seeing both the ancient sites and the lively local areas. Even though my time in Thessaloniki was short, I felt like I got a real taste of the city.

    After almost arriving at the meeting point I found out that they canceled in the middle of the night 02.30. Unreliable and unprofessional without any message. This way you can't find another alternative tour in Thessaloniki because you have to pre-book everything.
