Once home to one of the largest Sephardic communities in the world, Thessaloniki’s Jewish presence influenced its culture, economy, and spirit.

Unlike standard group tours, this tailor-made experience is fully adaptable to your interests. Whether you want to focus on historic synagogues, learn about the Holocaust’s impact on the city, or visit former Jewish neighbourhoods, I will craft a unique itinerary just for you. Whatever your focus, this tour will provide deep insights into the city's Jewish past and present.

This ensures that you have the flexibility to see the city's highlights comfortably without the fatigue of long walks, especially if you’re visiting locations that are further apart. I will ensure that your tour is adapted to your pace and preferences.
