Description

Combine two of Macedonia‘s most rewarding attractions in a single day trip from Thessaloniki — the spectacular Edessa waterfalls and wine tasting at carefully selected wineries in the Edessa and Naoussa area.

Your guided tour begins at the remarkable archaeological site of Ancient Pella, the former capital of Macedonia and birthplace of Alexander the Great. Wander through 2,500 square meters of symposium parlors and rooms adorned with exquisitely preserved 4th-century B.C. mosaic floors depicting the lion hunt and Dionysos riding a panther.

Next, visit the enchanting city of Edessa, famously known as the “City of Water.” Take in the awe-inspiring “Karano” waterfall, meander along frothy rivers crossed by over 47 bridges, and relax in charming little parks. You’ll have free time to enjoy a local lunch before continuing to the wine tasting.
