Full description

This highlight tour starts off in an atmospheric area of Thessaloniki, Valaoritou. From here the local guide will bring you to two authentic Greek markets, the Kapani Market and the Modiano Market. After exploring this part of the culture, you will visit the historical Aristotelous Square. A visit to the ancient Roman Agora and the Dikasterion Square can't be forgotten. At the end of a street with many architectural differences also lies the famous Mausoleum, which was built by the remarkable Roman emperor Galerius. After visiting his palace and his arc, you will move on to the pride of Thessaloniki, the White Tower. This tower, which stands directly on the boulevard, will make you really marvel at this city. Cycling on this boulevard will give you a beautiful view over the sea and the surrounding mountains, before you eventually end up in the traditional area of Ladadika. During the day this is the perfect area to wander around and have a delicious Greek lunch, and at night this area comes to life with its many clubs and bars. After three hours of exploring you will be back at the starting point, walking away with unforgettable memories.

We are very grateful Mirjam Maria and Alexia for a wonderful bike tour around Thessaloniki! Although the weather was hot we didn't notice these couple of hours :) The route was very wisely structured, so we usually stopped in shady place to get the new portion of the information on this wonderful city. Some of the places, like local market, we definitely wouldn't find by ourselves and we are so happy, that we had such experienced guides! During this tour you will feel as if you are walking with your friend who knows almost everything concerning this city :) P.S. Greek yougurt with honey and fruits that we had during one of the stops was definitely one of the best dishes that we've tried throughout our vacation voyage! :))

No other way to see the city! Dimos our tour guide was so knowledgeable and intriguing, the tour was over before it started it made it go so quick. Great historic insights into Thessaloniki and the local markets. Very patient with my wife’s cycling skills which made us very comfortable! We will definitely enjoy other tours with Dimos in the future.
