5.00Our guide Adria was very friendly and well informed. We did a walk in the streets around the main square, through markets, sampling local products along the way. It was good to learn more about local specialties and discover places we probably would not have found.
Excellent driver and guide

5.00Our family had an exceptional experience with Demetris as our driver and tour guide in Thessaloniki. From start to finish, he provided a seamless, informative, and enjoyable day exploring Pella and Vergina—two remarkable sites connected to Alexander the Great and his father, Philip II. Demetris picked us up promptly and drove safely and comfortably throughout the entire journey. When I made an error with the pickup address, he handled the situation with patience and professionalism, ensuring everything stayed on schedule. He even brought an extra booster seat for our six-year-old on short notice, which demonstrated his thoughtfulness and commitment to our comfort and safety. His guidance at the archaeological sites and museums was invaluable. He provided helpful tips on navigating exhibits efficiently and pointed out fascinating landmarks along the way, enriching our understanding of Greek history and culture. As a Thessaloniki native whose family has lived there for generations, he shared insightful stories and historical context that added depth to the experience. Demetris also proved to be a wealth of knowledge about local cuisine, drawing on his background as a former restaurateur. He offered excellent recommendations and ensured we enjoyed a delightful snack break by reserving a table and helping us avoid long lines. What stood out most was his kindness toward our daughter. He made her feel included throughout the day, engaging her with warmth and patience that made the experience memorable for our entire family. Demetris consistently looked out for our best interests and went above and beyond to ensure we had an enriching and stress-free tour. We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Thessaloniki and looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring guide.

5.00A lot of stops and really nice tastings in authentic local places. The guide was really nice attentive and informative. For us the starting hour was a bit too early.. wish it was further away from breakfast so we could enjoy more of the food. So avoid breakfast that day..
Great service and very accommodating guides!

5.00We originally booked the Mt. Olympus and Dion trip and went up the mountain but the weather was very bad due to the storm so our Guide (Yllanis) had to cancel the rest of the trip. He was very kind and considerate to offer another free tour in the next days. Because of this we had to change plans and took the food tasting tour with Eleni. We have enjoyed the experience a lot. Both guides were very accommodating and has shared a lot of interesting facts about the history and culture of Thessaloniki. We are very happy with the service, we will definitely book again with this company if given the chance
