“Really good value for money - and so convenient to be collected and dropped off - only thing I can say is, they were a bit disorganised when we disembarked - we had no idea what bus to get on, and ended getting quite lost, we eventually had to get off in Kamara, instead of Vlychada, because the driver didn't tell us we were on the wrong bus! Cost us 35Euros to find our way back - but the trip was wonderful - was great to swim in the Hot Springs - wine was flowing - and the weather was great - onboard staff were lovely too!”

“Excellent day trip, the thermal baths were really enjoyable and the waterfall was so beautiful! The place we stopped for lunch had a few different restaurants to choose from, we ate at the guides recommendation where we got to try some local dishes and it was absolutely delicious. One thing to know is the cost for the thermal baths start at €3 for one, but there are 3 small pools and one larger one that costs €5, so if you want to swim in them all you will end up paying a bit more. I would highly recommend this trip if you are spending a few days in Thessaloniki and…”
