VolosThe seaside town of vibrant life and tsipouro
Volos, a vibrant coastal city that captivates visitors with its unique blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, seaside tranquility, and youthful energy.
As you explore the waterfront promenade of Volos, you will be greeted by the sight of colorful fishing boats, bustling cafes, and lively tavernas that line the harbor, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere. At lunchtime, the “tsipouradika” (small tavernas) fill up with people who enjoy life and the traditional mezedes accompanied by tsipouro, the local drink.
Then, stroll through the scenic neighborhoods, where neoclassical buildings, charming squares, and tree-lined streets showcase the city’s architectural diversity and historical legacy.
Apart from the cosmopolitan charm of a modern town, Volos has much more to offer: venture into its lush surroundings, where the verdant landscapes of Mount Pelion beckon with their natural beauty, scenic trails, and traditional villages. Visit the mountain villages of Makrinitsa, Portaria, and Milies, where the stone houses, cobblestone streets, and panoramic views create a picturesque setting for exploration and relaxation. Hike through the forests, taste local specialties, and experience the warm hospitality of the Pelion region, known for its natural wonders and cultural heritage.
