*Bookings until 25/11

Excursion Itinerary

  • We depart from Chalkida at 6:00 a.m., and after the necessary stop for rest, we arrive at Ambelakia—the historic noble village of Kissavos. Built on the northwestern slopes of Mount Kissavos (Ossa), at the entrance of the Tempi Valley, at an altitude of approximately 400 meters, the road leading there offers stunning views of the Thessalian plain.

    The village flourished in the 18th–19th century thanks to its yarn processing and red dyeing (from the plant rizari), and it was here, in 1778, that the first cooperative in the world was established: the “Common Company” (a cooperative for trade and craft activities).

    You can visit the Folklore & Historical Museum housed in the "Molas Mansion", displaying traditional clothing, tools, and everyday objects from the era. The village is dotted with stone fountains, quaint alleyways, and has just a few dozen permanent residents—though they open their homes and tavernas on weekends for visitors.

    We'll have free time to explore this wonderful village at our own pace.

    Our next destination is the beautiful city of Thessaloniki, where we’ll take a brief panoramic tour of its most important landmarks. The rest of the day will be free for personal exploration—shopping in the city’s many stores, enjoying coffee or food along the lively seaside promenade.

    Hotel check-in and dinner.

  • After breakfast, we will depart for a wonderful cruise around Mount Athos.

    This unique experience begins at the port of Ouranoupoli and includes:

    Sailing approximately 500 meters from the coastline of Mount Athos, viewing the monasteries of the western peninsula by sea.

    A guided narration throughout the cruise.

    You’ll see many of the most important monasteries, including:

    DochiariouXenophontosPanteleimonos (Russian)XeropotamouSimonopetraGregoriouDionysiouSt. Paul

    As well as sketes like Nea Skiti and Agia Anna.

    The cruise also includes time for leisure and entertainment, such as a stop in Ouranoupoli or Ammouliani, with free time for a walk, meal, or even swimming (depending on the cruise itinerary).

    In the late afternoon, we return to the hotel for overnight stay and dinner.


  • After breakfast and check-out, we will head to Edessa to explore the area.
    There, we’ll admire:
    The Waterfall Park, the city’s most famous attraction.
    The impressive Karanos Waterfall (70 meters tall) and the smaller nearby waterfall.
    We'll walk behind the waterfall for a truly unique experience and stroll along paths with views over the plain.
    Next, we’ll visit the Open-Air Water Museum—the only one of its kind in Greece—where we’ll learn about the traditional use of water in textile and craft production.
    We’ll also walk through the traditional district of Edessa, filled with Macedonian-style mansions, ideal for photos.
    You’ll have free time to explore hidden corners of the town, enjoy your coffee, and then we’ll head to the Pozar Thermal Baths—natural spa waters at 37°C, either in indoor pools or outdoor natural pools.
    There will be free time to enjoy the spa, followed by lunch in a local taverna. (We recommend trying: trout, wild boar, trahana soup, cheese pies.)
    In the afternoon, we will return to Chalkida, with rest stops along the way.
