    Tour de George

    We had a lovely day on our tour with George. He was prompt in his pick up from our port and had us back to port before our requested time without sacrificing anything on the tour. We ended up having to adjust our tour day due to our cruise ship changing our port dates, George was very flexible, communicative and willing to help us. George was very knowledgeable about Thessaloniki and the surrounding area, happy to answer our questions, but not overwhelm us with information. We had plenty of time at each stop to have great experiences at our own pace. George has a great personality and made our day a lot of fun. Thanks George!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your day exploring Thessaloniki with George. It’s great to know that his flexibility, local knowledge, and friendly personality made your experience both smooth and memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back on another tour in the future!

    Great experience

    Nice escape, even when we expected more from the waterfalls... The thermal waters were full of people, maybe because it was a weekend, so be aware of the date when you book

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’re happy you enjoyed the experience and appreciate your note about the waterfalls and thermal springs. These locations can be more lively on weekends, which adds to their unique local atmosphere. We’d love to have you join us again for another beautiful escape in nature!

    Relaxing and BEAUTIFUL

    Anastasio was wonderful. He was very attentive to our family. He helped us take some great photos - he even helped us order our first Greek meal. We were able to see a lot and relax in the beautiful Greek countryside during our excursion:

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words! We’re delighted that Anastasios made your family excursion enjoyable, helped capture great photos, and guided you through your first Greek meal. It’s wonderful to hear you could relax and take in the beautiful countryside. Your feedback means a lot to us!

    Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Thessaloniki.

    How much does Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip cost?

    +

    Prices start at $502 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Thessaloniki usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Thessaloniki is not rushed.

    Is Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Thessaloniki, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Thessaloniki can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Thessaloniki and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Edessa & Pozar Thermal Springs Private Day Trip start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Thessaloniki within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Thessaloniki?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Thessaloniki experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gastronomic Food Tour in Thessaloniki with a Chef, Discover Vergina and Pella: Day Trip to Macedonian Kingdom, Thessaloniki : Half-Day Sailing Cruise to Shipwreck Bay !. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Thessaloniki?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Thessaloniki?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
