Must Do Tour!
There's a lot of history here, and walking around with someone knowledgeable helps peel back the layers and put it in context. Our guide Nikos was passionate about the history and equally proud of his hometown, so we got a great picture of both the past and the present. Phenomenal way to see the town!

Excellent tour of Thessolaniki.
Starting at the White Tower, we walked 12000 steps through the city learning its history and seeing marvelous sights. Our tour guide Nikos Chatzziioannou was fantastic. Very knowledgeable. Also very sensitive to the needs of the small group we were with. Just a great way to start our visit of this magnificent city.

Great morning learning loads about Salónica
Nikos was very kind and knowledgeable. We had a fun morning exploring the city and learnt quite a bit of history. Although he ran away 30 minutes before we were supposed to finish the tour and the itinerary on the description is not that accurate.
