We were warmly welcomed by Rita. At the beginning she showed us a few shops where the locals shop. We were allowed to try everything there. She brought us some Greek specialties and homemade cakes, which was really nice. Then we walked through small streets where not much was going on, since mainly the Greeks go shopping there. We were never forced to buy anything, even if we tried something. The Greeks are very hospitable and we enjoyed our time very much. Always my pleasure. We can only recommend it.

Great tour! She was a lovely guide and answered all of our questions with great enthusiasm and knowledge. highly recommend a tour like this to get to know the city.. especially the tour guides! our lovely tour guide was an archeology student, so she had great facts about the city and Greece - while also showing us delicious food!

Maria took us all over the downtown area and shared the history of Greece and Thessaloniki, as well as all the best food! She was wonderful and so was everything that we tried!
