HALF DAY

The Thessaloniki Panorama tour lasts approximately 3 hours and it is a relaxed private tour that allows you to make the most out of your visit in the city. It combines the modern and ancient parts of the city and is truly worth to take.

09h00: Departure from your hotel by private bus
-         Visit the UpperCity and its Citadelle (Heptapyrgion)
On the north of Thessaloniki lies the Upper or Old Town, the only part of the city that survived the big fire of 1917.
The Upper Town will make you feel as if time stood still; you’ll immediately be stricken by its unique style,
so different from that of the rest of Thessaloniki that will travel you back to the city’s Byzantine past.
Because of its location, it is where the city’s main fortress and other defensive structures (Eptapirgion, Trigonio Tower)
were built during the Byzantine and Ottoman period. A large part of the Byzantine Walls that surrounded Thessaloniki
has been well preserved, adding to the beauty of the city’s Acropolis.
 
-         Heading  to the LowerCity including St. St Demetrius Basilica,  St Sofia, Galerius Arc, Rotonda and the White Tower
 
12h30: End of the tour
