The newest attraction of Thessaloniki Greece revealed: its metro.

The city of Thessaloniki in Northern Greece is welcoming its newest addition, its 3 bn metro system! 🌍🏙️✨

This modern mode of transportation helps reduce congestion and minimize environmental impact. 🌱

During two decades of construction no less than 300.000 (!) archaeological artefacts were excavated, including Roman roads, mosaics, and ancient burial sites.

This has made it a very costly affair. On the bright side, the historical and archaeological layers beneath the city are on display at several metro stations.

Tour operator Natural Greece is prioritizing sustainable transportation, both in Thessaloniki and other destinations in Greece:

  • Active Transportation: We promote walking during city tours whenever feasible, allowing guests to experience the destination in a more sustainable and engaging way. Within Thessaloniki city our travelers and their passionate guides tend to walk. Walking tours allow guests to immerse themselves in Thessaloniki’s rich cultural and gastronomic heritage. From the city’s famous landmarks to vibrant markets, private concerts in the park and interactive cooking classes, participants get a deeper connection to the city’s soul. 🥗🎨
  • Public Transport: Use of public transportation whenever this is a viable option. The new Thessaloniki metro with its 13 “public art stations” is going to be an exciting add-on in 2025 and beyond! 🌿
