Personalized city tours with local hosts.
Alex was amazing! We scheduled with him scant hours before our tour - after our booked tour guide did not show up in the a.m on our last day in the city! We booked the culinary tour which he offered to customize and we asked for historical highlights on our journey. Alex overdelivered to our delight. His picks of culinary stops were delicious & appeared authentic. His breadth of knowledge was amazing. His delivery was on point - he didn't drone on and on, he provided pertinent bullet pointed information, he covered the important items, and he was just fabulous. Also, Alex provided dining/drinking recommendations for the rest of our time in Thessaloniki. We went to the rooftop bar, the restaurant for dinner, as well as his dessert spot and had a lovely time! Alex is THE tour guide to book in Thessaloniki - and the other locales he covers!
Alex was a wonderful host. I booked a private tour with him; and he easily adapted his visit to my interests. I was really interested in history so we focused on the monuments, but Alex also has much to share about local culture, food, and wine as well. If I had more time, I would certainly do one of the culinary tours he offers. Alex is warm, friendly and a wonderful guide for any adventure in Thessaloniki!
The tour was very fun but at the same time we learned a lot about the city. Alexandros was very polite, knowledgable and fun to speak to. He showed us all the best spots and as we asked to see the markets, he tailored the tour so we could do that. At the markets we tried some food and the best olives from this area. We would recommend the tour to everyone.
A great introduction to the food of this lovely city. Alex is a well read and experienced guide with a warm approach and good sense of what we were looking for.
