Central Macedonia Holidays

A captivating landscape dotted with Neolithic settlements and ancient ruins, impressive waterfalls and craggy mountains, verdant villages and thick forests of pines, poplars and firs, Central Macedonia is a gem in the Mediterranean.

Thessaloniki, a cultural hotspot in Greece second only to Athens, is defined by impressive monuments that date back centuries. Steeped in its glorious past, the city evokes fantastical tales of ancient battles and Greek Gods. Stylish and chic, the streets attract a young crowd and buzz with vivacious energy.

A trip to Vergina, once the first capital of the Kingdom of Macedonia, is a fascinating immersion into an ancient Hellenistic metropolis. Similarly, the ascent up the Olympus Gorge, emerging from the lush vegetation of the Pierian Plain to walk past the ruins of sacred buildings, will awaken you to Greece’s wonderful history.

An idyll of picturesque gulfs and sheltered bays, you can soak up the sun and relax in tranquillityon the three-pronged peninsula of Chalkidiki. Home to traditional villages as well as modern resorts, warm, welcoming people and a rich cultural heritage, you can experience authentic Greece. On one of the mountainous crests that surrounds the area, the peninsula of Athos, there is a scattering of monasteries. Set in stunning scenery, they form the oldest monastic republic still in existence.

An area of unrivalled natural beauty that is defined by its spectacular history and vibrant culture, Macedonia will charm you and make you want to return year upon year.
