    Our tour guide, Ioanna, was a fountain of information during our trip. She gracefully knitted together bits of knowledge we had about Thessaloniki and Greek history into complete pictures. We’ve never learned so much during a tour as we did during this one.

    Would recommend this your for Thessaloniki. Streets are narrow - big busses were struggling all over the city. We had a guide - Dimitri’s and driver- Vassilys - both courteous and professional. Our guide accommodated some special requests with no issues. We have become ship excursion “snobs” - for the same money or a little bit more you get a private tour instead of being with 40-50 of your closest friends. I don’t care how good the guide is - a large group puts a damper on the experience. We enjoyed ours - covered all the important sites and then some. We invited both to lunch not only Dimitri’s was able to join us. Went to a wonderful restaurant that served Greek maze. Would definitely recommend.
