Your experience starts at 8 AM, when you will be picked up from the meeting point in Thessaloniki. You will make your way to the famous Pozar Thermal Spring, passing through some of Greece’s most eye-catching destinations. Once you reach the Spring, you can submerge yourself into the healing waters, with Mount Voras serving as a breathtaking backdrop. The spring water is naturally heated to a very comfortable 37℃, which makes it perfect for relaxing. It is also believed that the water can help treat and abate numerous skin conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, kidney disease, and respiratory diseases.

After an invigorating bath at the famous pools, you will go to a nearby village. Here you can enjoy a traditional Greek lunch. You will have a chance to visit the local market and explore the various goods and items on display.

Next up on the itinerary is a visit to the legendary city of Edessa, which is renowned for being the first capital of the kingdom of Macedon. You will have some free time to see the stunning waterfalls and enjoy the beautiful scenery, before you make your way back to Thessaloniki.
