Welcome to Thessaloniki, also known as Saloniki, Salonica or Selanik as the name has changed several times over the city’s 2300-year history.
During this shore excursion, you will see many ancient, medieval and modern sites from that long history. You will walk, talk, eat, shop and just generally enjoy the same things the city’s inhabitants do.
You can visit the most popular tourist sites from Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman Turkish and modern times, and explore the less well-known but equally important Jewish and Donmeh history here.
There are also some beautiful museums displaying the city’s varied history and culture.
Just by moving through the city at your own pace, you will sense something timeless and profound — the difference between the West and the East. This is an “Oriental” city in the old sense — it was the bridge between Europe and Asia, between Christianity and Islam.
Sites may include the Eptapyrgio fortress, old Turkish quarter, Trigonio tower, Konak, Agios Dimitrios, Rotonda, Arch of Galerius, Agia Sophia, White Tower, Plateia Aristotelos, Jewish museum, and others.
