Once you land at Thessaloniki Airport you have a number of transportation options. The easiest way to travel to the city centre is by taxi or bus.

As Greece’s second largest city, Thessaloniki balances modern life with ancient history. A lively place with a busy cosmopolitan centre and nightlife scene, the city’s incredibly rich past is everywhere, with landmarks and ruins dating from Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman eras. Visit the Arch of Galerius, an imposing monument dating back to the 4th century, followed by souvlaki at a local taverna on the city’s vibrant waterfront. Whether it’s history, authentic cuisine or remarkable sea views you’re after, Thessaloniki is the perfect place to experience it all.
