This day trip was amazing. I enjoyed every moment and it is a must for anyone travelling to Thessaloniki. Our guide Lazaros was superb. He was friendly , professional and taught us so much and made the trip very interesting and enjoyable . We discovered places you would never have found without without expert knowledge. Extremely good value for money. Schedule was well planned and we stopped at a beautiful cafe for lunch.

The trip was good overall. The ancient finds and excavations in Dion are very interesting and worth seeing. Likewise Olympus. The guidess was friendly and gave some interesting information about history and culture. Unfortunately it was sometimes difficult to understand them because of the pronunciation. Admission on site is not included, but at €8 pp it is not expensive either. You were not allowed to eat anything on the bus. But there were free bottles of water.

Maria was our tour guide and was very good at giving introductions to the area and explaining what we would be doing that day. The City of Dion was very interesting with ruins slowly being excavated. Lots of informational signs throughout the tour. We were able to see the structures at our own pace. The next part of the tour we went to a museum that showed the archeological finds. Incredible how they were preserved! The hike to Mt. Olympus was beautiful. We walked through a quaint city and through a path to get to a gorge. The water was not flowing much, but it was a good walk through the town and Mt. Olympus. We had a good lunch in the town and did a little shopping. A very nice day overall.
