What to expect

All the best bits of Thassos feature on this full day tour. Your guide will recount stories and myths as you traverse the countryside and coastline to the clifftop Archangel Michael monastery, Panagia, and Aliki – for its picture-postcard beach. It's a great way to see the island and the scenery is second to none.

Kick off at Archangel Michael, a 12th century working monastery perched on a cliff edge. Explore the icon-bedecked chapel and soak up the views over the Aegean – on a clear day you can see to Mount Athos, the holy mountain in mainland Greece. Next is Aliki, a beautiful promontory lined by beaches, where you'll have time for some strolling and sunning. We'll also pit stop in Faros for a chance to grab some lunch.

Then it's off to Panagia where you'll visit the blue-domed church as well as see the miniature canals carrying water from the mountains. We'll round off in breezy Thassos town and walk through the ancient marketplace, the centre of trade and politics of its time.

Ipsarion Adventure

Climb into a comfy 4x4 with A/C and head off the beaten track into the rugged interior of Thassos. This is where the island sheds its beachside polish and reveals something wilder, rocky trails, dense forests, and pockets of rustic tradition. As the road climbs, you'll pass remote hamlets and mountain slopes with views that stretch far across the island. Local guide, Tina, say, "Your first stop is Kastro, a sleepy hilltop village that feels like it's been forgotten by time. Wander narrow stone lanes, visit the old church, and take in the raw, authentic charm of this hidden gem. Next, head to Panagouda Monastery, quietly nestled in the hills. It's home to Monk Epifanios, who's lived here alone for over 30 years. The setting is tranquil, stripped-back, and deeply rooted in the island's spiritual rhythm.Then it's up to Ipsarion, Thassos' highest peak at 1204 meters. The summit offers wide, open views across the island, the sea, and even the mainland on a clear day. On the way back down, stop for a simple snack among the trees. Finish the day with a visit to Maries Village, where you can stroll through quiet streets and relax in the main square, maybe catching the soft light of sunset before heading back.
