About this activity

Step off your cruise ship and get ready to explore Thessaloniki with a shore excursion built specifically for cruise travelers. This tour covers the city’s main highlights and also takes you to corners of the city many travelers miss.

Ride in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle while your licensed local guide brings the city’s history to life at places like the White Tower, the Arch of Galerius, St. Demetrius Church, and the Eptapyrgio Fortress. You will also enjoy free time in the city center to shop, try local food, or explore at your own pace.

The final stop includes a 30-minute walk.

After your free time at Aristotelous Square, your guide will walk you back to the port, just a few minutes away.
