Waterfalls, sea views, and the slow life just 90 minutes from the city.
We leave Thessaloniki at 9:30 AM, heading southeast toward the lush mountains of Halkidiki. Our first stop is something most tourists never see: the hidden waterfalls of Varvara. After a short forest walk, we’ll reach an impressive 10-meter waterfall that forms a crystal-clear natural pool – perfect for a refreshing swim. We’ll spend about 30–40 minutes here to swim, relax, and soak up the sun in the heart of nature.
Next, we continue to the coastal village of Olympiada, a quiet gem with spectacular views over the Aegean Sea. At a scenic spot above the coast, we’ll take a snack break – included in your trip with local goodies, fresh fruit, and salad.
Then it's time to head down to the beach, where you’ll have free time to swim, chill, or sip a cocktail at one of the local beach bars. Sunbeds, shade, music, and the sea – no pressure, just pure summer freedom.
And if you’re still hungry for more? We can end the day at a seaside taverna with a relaxed, authentic Greek meal (optional, not included in price).
