In the city center tour, they are shown mainly places and they are told stories that they cannot be found in guidebooks or discovered easily. We speak also about how the city started, about some of its main monuments, about the contemporary life in the city and many other stories that they hide behind buildings and walls. We walk very slowly, we make many stops, and we realize that Thessaloniki is not what it is showing but what it is hiding.
In the end, many recommendations are given about food and hidden gems.
