I want to share my impressions after a trip to Greece. I always perceived this country exclusively for a beach summer holiday, but this time the week-long vacation fell in mid-October, and the agency offered, on a special offer, to fly to Thessaloniki for a week on a sightseeing tour. The price was very reasonable, so we decided to take a chance. We took a tour of Eureka (Ancient Greece), which included accommodation in Thessaloniki and a flight from Kyiv, and excursions were already determined on the spot. On the website of the tour operator, we read in advance about those places where you can go. As a result, we planned our vacation in advance. We went on a two-day trip to Athens-Meteora, to Kastoria and to Olympus. The excursion to Olympus also included a stop at the museum, where the tomb of Alexander the Great's father is located. Here already my husband was delighted! He is a history lover, so the trip impressed him very much. I was delighted with the trip to the monasteries in Meteora and Athens. Beauty and more! And, of course, we were lucky with the weather. I concluded that October is the best for excursions! Sunny, but not hot and not tiring to ride. The fur coat was a planned purchase, so one day was allocated for this. What can I say - the city of Kastoria is beautiful, the choice of furs is extensive. But I initially determined both the budget and the model for myself, so I immediately expressed my wishes to the accompanying Anna, well, she already recommended specific factories. On the second, I found what I wanted. The rest of the time I still had to ride with a group (there were 9 people in the sprint). But that's okay. I take these things lightly. Our hotel was almost in the center of Thessaloniki - Macedonia Palace. I liked everything, there are no special complaints. Back on the plane, I heard that other tourists were settled away from the center and from the sea. Therefore, I was glad that the manager of the agency strongly recommended this particular hotel, and I obeyed her. Well, I will also say that everywhere we were met, escorted - accompanied by tour operator guides. In principle, everything was fine. The only thing is that we were taken to the airport early enough. Well, you can close your eyes to this, after all, a group transfer. Maybe, of course, I am a harmless tourist, but I can say that the whole trip went perfectly, and we did not find fault with the little things. So have a great holiday everyone!
