We start off our tour with a panoramic view of the city along with a visit of the original medieval city walls.

During a full-day tour of Thessaloniki, a stop at Moni Vlatadon (Vlatadon Monastery) is one of the most memorable moments. Tucked into the quiet Upper Town, the 14th-century Byzantine monastery sits on a hillside just inside the old city walls and is believed to mark the exact spot where Saint Paul preached to the Thessalonians in 51 AD. A simple stone inside the small church is traditionally said to be where the apostle stood. You arrive after a short drive from the city centre, and the reward is immediate: sweeping panoramic views over the rooftops, the Thermaic Gulf, and – on clear days – all the way to Mount Olympus. The main church, dedicated to the Transfiguration, is beautifully decorated with well-preserved frescoes, and the whole place feels calm and lived-in because it is still an active monastery belonging to the Ecumenical Patriarchate. Modest dress is required (shoulders and knees covered).

Embrace the most important Byzantine church of the city where the remains of Saint Dimitrios are and see a vivid part of Thessaloniki's history. Every Tuesday the crypt is closed and cannot be visited. We only visit the church.

A stop at the Roman Forum (also known as the Ancient Agora) is a fascinating step back into the city’s Roman era. Right in the heart of the modern centre, at the junction of Olympou and Filippou streets, this large open-air archaeological site was once the bustling commercial, political and social hub of Roman Thessaloniki, with its main buildings constructed in the 2nd century AD

The most famous highway in ancient Macedonia was the Via Egnatia. Have a look at the remains that were found during the excavations of the subway train and dive into history.

A unique building of its kind, the sole circular Christian church in the world, with stunning mosaics and special history of a building which turned from a roman temple, to a christian church, to a mosque and back to a church.(On Tuesdays the museum remains closed so we get to see the building only from outside)

Marvel at the remains of the famous Galerius Arch through which passed Via Egnatia, the ancient 'highway' that connected Rome with Costantinople.

Learn about the dark story of the city's landmark, the White Tower and get a stuning view from its top.

Facing always the east, as when he started his campaign marvel at the unique statue of Alexander the Great riding his proud horse Vuchephalas.
