Modiano Market

Modiano is one of the most traditional markets of Thessaloniki. It is located in the heart of the city and it has been part of the Thessalonians’ life for about 80 years.

A great way to learn of the culture and history while enjoying wonderful food.

This was a wonderful way to learn about Thessaloniki food, culture and history. As a first time visitor this tour gave me a much better understanding of the area. The tour guide was exceptional, friendly, professional and provided excellent insight to my visit. All the food was not only delicious but also a piece of the culture of the city. Highly recommend.

Had an amazing tour led by guide Nikos. Immediately felt comfortable touring the city and learned so much about the food, history and culture! Come hungry. Like very hungry. I was so full by the end 🤣 nikos went above and beyond showing me the metro system and the history behind it!

Enjoy unique tastes of Thessaloniki while learning about the history of the region.

A great combination of the flavors and tastes of Thessaloniki while learning about the historical context of the food and region. Our tour guide was friendly, accommodating, and very knowledgeable! Patiently answering our questions and allowing for a deviation or two as we walked and talked. Great experience!
