    Tour Details
    • EskapasOperatorWritten May 2025

      Unfortunately we are organizing small group trips (Max 14 people) and we don't organize private tours. Such self-guided tour will cause a problem about the rental car which has to be left before leaving any country. Such trip consists of 5-7 different Balkan countries and their procedure for rental car is different. Also there is no regular public transportation. The only way is to join to any tour that follows such itinerary.

      Our itinerary is 7-day trip and starts in Athens and concludes in Sophia Bulgaria.

      We have also an extension to Dubrovnik or Bucharest. It will ad 2-3 days on this journey.

    Monica

    Asked on November 11th, 2024

    Can your tour provider arrange to get us from Thessaloniki to Athens?

    Flights / Transfers
    • EskapasOperatorWritten November 2024

      We can provide a program from Meteora to Athens inc. an overnight in Athens. There will be an additional cost of 200€ per person. In case you don't want the accommodation in Athens on Day 7 then we can subtract 80€ per person. Total cost will be 1425€ per person.
