Highlights

Become part of an interactive journey through the 2,300 years of Thessaloniki’s history, in an expert-led walking tour!


✓ Small group
✓ Led by a licensed tour guide, archaeologist MA & PhD candidate in experiential tourism
✓ Uncovers the diverse cultural influences that shaped Thessaloniki’s unique identity


Roads full of monuments. Monuments full of stories about emperors, gods and mortals, wars and disasters, victories and feasts. A city of many faces - sometimes with a friendly smile, sometimes with an introvert frown, and some other times with an awkward pose as she stands in front of her historical significance and glorious 23-century past.


In this walking tour, we discover every period of the city’s history - from Roman times to present day - through a kaleidoscope of monuments and landmarks that mark the ever-present timeline of a multicultural metropolis.


  • The itinerary may be adjusted, as opening hours can alter and certain monuments might be closed on specific days.
