Guided Tour of Dion, Mount Olympus & Litochoro Village

Begin your tour with your expert tour leader, an archaeologist and lover of history, as you make your way to the ancient city of Dion, famous for its archaeological sites, natural beauty, and proximity to Mount Olympus.
Explore the excavation site itself, passing statues, marvelous mosaics, and amazing artifacts that all stand in their original sites.
Walk the same paths as the ancient Greeks, learning more about their every day life, and take some time to visit the theater that's still so well-preserved that the acoustics are nearly perfect and the theater is still used by modern actors and festivals.
Stop at the museum that exhibits a number of statues and relics from the ancient city, including the Hydravlis, a wind instrument, and a mosaic that details the Villa of Dionysus in vibrant images.
Now it's time to explore the slopes and gorges that surround the imposing Mount Olympus, seat of the Greek deities for centuries.
Trek through the gorge of the Enipeas River along a magical path that winds through verdant riverbanks across wooden bridges over the sparkling waters, and seated just above the charming village of Litochoro.
Mount Olympus was chosen as a divine area for the 12 Olympian Gods that are rumored to have built their palaces in the nearby canyons and hills.
End the day in Litochoro itself, dining at a local restaurant to refresh yourself at the foot of this iconic mountain before returning to Thessaloniki.
