A must in Thessaloniki. - We highly recomend this tour. We had a great day with Michael. He is very knowledgeable of Greek mythology, Greek history but also contemporary Greece. We had a great conversation during driving, he is a super pleasent person to be with. This is a private tour so he picked us up in the morning and returned us when we arrived back in Thessaloniki. Thank you Michael:)

Wonderful trip to Mount Olympus - This was such a lovely day trip from our base in bustling Thessaloniki. Our guide Michael provided an entertaining narrative as we journeyed towards the magnificent Mount Olympus. We visited beautiful waterfalls and spectacular viewpoints with the most wonderful scenery. The air was crisp and clear and the trees and wildflowers spring fresh. Michael organised a coffee and pastries stop in a beautiful little town which was much appreciated. We enjoyed Michael’s tales of The Gods and importance in Greek Culture. A very enjoyable day and highly recommended.

One of the best tours I have ever had! - One of the best tours ever. Michael was beyond accommodating (I over slept and he called me to see if I was okay). The drive was filled with conversation amongst our group and his wealth or knowledge about Greece, the 12 gods, the church, and so much more. Each location was discussed and experience in detail. I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you Michael for an amazing way to experience Thessaloniki.

GREAT TOUR IN THESSALONIKI! - Michael is the best tour guide ever! The tour is designed for small groups, so Michael can also accommodate personal requests, such as when we make stops, when to get food, etc. He made sure everyone was comfortable, explained everything, gave a lot of background on the history of Greece, he really knows his stuff. It was both informative and funny. Next time in Thessaloniki, I'll definitely come back on his tour!

If you do one activity in Thessaloniki- DO THIS HIKE!!! Not to be missed!!! - I highly recommend this tour with Michael who is the liveliest of guides and extremely knowledgeable about everything to do with Greek culture, history, and mythology. You won’t be bored for a minute that’s for sure!! I went on this hike with my daughter and her boyfriend, and it was so fun and memorable! We had such an amazing time that we decided to sign up for two more activities with Michael, which were equally awesome! I guarantee you’ll leave with great memories of the experience and plenty of gorgeous pics. Well worth the price.
