An alternative to Athens?..........
Thessaloniki is a large, modern, waterfront city which is the second largest in Greece.
The vibe here is definitely on the more cosmopolitan side with major shopping street, lively alleys, a huge university with 150,000 students and a huge choice of restaurants and cafes.
Thessaloniki is not just about the modern day however, with the city having a very turbulent past mainly due to its location.
There are therefore, plenty of historic sites to visit such as the Byzantine City Walls, the remains of a roman market and the famous and symbolic White Tower.
Because of the history and the cosmopolitan atmosphere of the city today, the mix of cultures means that Thessaloniki is known as the gourmet capital of Greece with lots of fusion cooking.
Of course, if you want a day at the beach then Halkidiki is not too far away and the city makes a fantastic twin centre with the peninsulas.

Happy People
The team have booked three very different holidays for me, two for a couple and one for a group of nine. They listened to our requirements and used their expert knowledge of Greece to provide us with several options from which to choose. I found them to be very professional, nothing is too much trouble and they strive to find a good deal. I would not hesitate to recommend them. The company has booked me a few different holidays ranging from 2 weeks away in the sun to City Breaks. They have a great knowledge and understanding of your needs and requirements when booking a holiday. They always try to accommodate your budget and work extremely hard to get you what you're asking for. They have an extremely good knowledge of the Greek Islands and never fail when recommending specific places. I would always recommend the team as they are helpful and professional at all times. |
Fantastic service. I explained what kind of holiday I was looking for and my budget and they came up with different options to choose from. Nothing was too much trouble and the communication was first class. I would definitely recommend and would not hesitate in using this 5 star service again.
