Thessaloniki is Greece’s hip port metropolis in the north. Surrounded by soaring mountains and considered the culinary capital of the country, Thessaloniki offers everything a biker’s heart could possibly desire for a short break away from everyday life.
On this three-day tour, you get to experience the very best of two completely different worlds: Thessaloniki’s mountainous world with its extensive forested areas offers a fantastic variety of trails sure to make bikers of every and any ability happy. From easy flow trails to technical downhills, you can find it all here!
After so much exertion on the bike tours, you certainly deserve a culinary reward! Thessaloniki is way ahead of the game when it comes to its tasty treats and delicious delights. Nowhere else will you find such a gastronomic variety! The perfect city for the ultimate culinary experience.
Individual travel dates are also available on request for groups of 4-6 people.
In the evening, we enjoy dinner all together in a traditional restaurant, where you can experience the incredible cuisine for the first time.
Challenging terrain and extra-long trails await us on our bike tour today. On our bike back to the city centre, we stop at some hidden culinary hotspots to taste various local delicacies.
Once back at the hotel, there is time to relax before the guide brings us to a restaurant particularly popular with the locals, and afterwards for those who would like, to a wonderful bar. But remember, there are still two days of biking ahead!
There have been so many trails built here in the last few years that you could safely say it’s Greece’s first trail centre. Even if you prefer a more technical ride, you’ll get your money’s worth: enjoy the small jumps, curves, and drop-offs!
After the bike tour, we stop at a mini-brewery to enjoy the locally brewed beer together with delicious meze, Greek tapas. Afterwards, rest and relax at the hotel before enjoying the vibrant nightlife of Thessaloniki with a visit to a restaurant and a trip to some hip bars.
The tour leads us first through the historic city centre to the suburban forest area of Seih Sou. From here, there are various routes to get to the top, from where we can enjoy breath-taking views of the Aegean Sea and if the weather is good, all the way to Mount Olympus. We finish off our diverse bike days along great trails that eventually lead us to the harbour.
Let’s celebrate the experience with a beer and exceptional tapas. Afterwards, we’ll take care of our bikes. We bring you to Thessaloniki Airport, according to your flight time. Please note that your return flight should depart from Thessaloniki at 5 pm at the earliest. Of course, you can also extend your urban break by one or more nights.
