Great, fun day at beautiful sites - It was a lovely tour. We did the guided tour of the tomb, which was very informational, and overall a wonderful experience. The winery is small, but the wine is delicious. Wine tasting was not included but it's only 6 EURO a person, so not a big deal. The waterfall was amazing. Beautiful views. Eat before you go there is no food provided.

An excellent day in the Greek countryside - Four of us took a private day trip from Thessaloniki to Edessa, Naoussa, and Vergina on a sunny June day. Our guide, John, was great. He was very knowledgeable, funny, and made sure we saw everything without making us ever feel rushed.

An excellent day out - A highly recommended trip. Our driver Ioannis was very knowledgeable & even gave us simultaneous translation to English when the official talk was in Greek.

Absolutely Top Experience - Both our driver and guide, Ioannis, made the experience truly special with their professionalism and deep knowledge of the region’s history and culture. The royal tombs of Vergina were awe-inspiring, and Ioannis’ insights brought the ancient history to life. The wine tasting at Kir-Yianni Winery was a highlight – the wines were exceptional, and the setting was stunning. To top it off, the Edessa waterfalls were breathtaking and the perfect way to end the day. A well-organized, enriching, and luxurious experience. Highly recommend this tour – five stars!
