Program Description
Discover a completely different side of Thassos on an exciting jeep safari through the island's mountainous interior. This off-road adventure takes you beyond the popular coastal resorts, revealing breathtaking landscapes, traditional villages and some of the island's best-kept secrets.
After hotel pick-up, you'll travel by 4x4 jeep along scenic mountain tracks and forest roads, reaching places inaccessible to ordinary vehicles. One of the first stops is the Marble Quarry, where the island's famous white marble has been extracted since ancient times and is still renowned for its exceptional quality.
A highlight of the excursion is Ipsarion, the highest peak on Thassos, rising 1,204 metres above sea level. From the summit, you'll enjoy spectacular panoramic views across the mountains, forests and coastline, offering a completely different perspective of the island.
The adventure continues to Kastro, a historic mountain village often referred to as the island's "ghost village". Its traditional stone houses, narrow streets and peaceful atmosphere provide a fascinating glimpse into the island's past. There will also be time for a short break to enjoy the tranquil surroundings.
You'll then visit the Kastro Waterfalls and Lake Maries, two beautiful natural attractions surrounded by lush greenery. These peaceful locations showcase the untouched beauty of Thassos and offer the perfect opportunity to relax in nature.
After the safari, you'll return to your hotel.

Reviews
Very cool and interesting!
An unforgettable adventure! Excellent organization and maximum excitement. This trip is 100% recommendable. Everything was planned down to the last detail, which is a huge plus. In just one day, we managed to see the most important and beautiful corners of Thassos and learned a great deal about them from our guide, who was simply amazing. Furthermore, the jeep ride itself was incredibly emotional and an adventure in itself. If you`re looking for a combination of efficient sightseeing and a dose of adrenaline, I highly recommend it! While on the tour, be sure to visit Kostas in the charming village of Kastro to sample the famous local drink! It`s the perfect complement to this brilliant day. A journey worth its weight in gold!
