Thessaly is a miniature of Greece, right in the “heart” of our country. It is distinguished for its beautiful islands, mountains, remarkable religious and cultural monuments, modern urban centers located within a close distance of traditional mountain villages with unique colours and delicious local cuisine. It is an area that combines modern infrastructure, traditional villages and spectacular flora and landscapes. A land with history, culture, landscapes and flavours that can not be discovered on a single visit!

Thessaly has all those comparative advantages and the unique areas such as Olympus, B. Sporades, Pelion, Meteora, Plastiras Lake, Larissa beach, which can set it apart and establish it as a worldwide benchmark.

In our region there are activities for all kinds of tourism such as religious, hiking, medical, conference, agrotourism, mountaineering, all kinds of sports, etc. It is worth mentioning that we are the first region in the country with organised sporting events.

The hospitality of the Thessalians and the endless possibilities of our region, enable it to meet the needs of each guest, throughout the year/during all seasons.
