Description

Step into the heart of ancient Macedonia with a full-day journey from Thessaloniki to Vergina and Pella in northern Greece. This immersive experience unveils the birthplace of Alexander the Great and the grandeur of the Macedonian Kingdom, blending archaeological wonders with the region’s scenic beauty.

Your adventure begins at 8:00 am from Aristotelous Square, where you’ll travel in comfort to Pella. Explore the modern museum and archaeological site, marveling at intricate mosaics like the "Abduction of Helen" and "Amazonomachy," and discover artifacts that reveal daily life in ancient Greece.

After soaking in centuries of heritage, enjoy a lunch break at a local restaurant offering authentic Greek flavors. The journey concludes at the New Museum of Aigai, where you’ll encounter even more remarkable artifacts from the ancient capital before returning to Thessaloniki.
