Buses from Thessaloniki to Chalkidiki

The Question:

Hi Stavros,
I'll arrive on 16th sturday august at Salonicco airport. I need to know if there's a bus for Sarti "Halkidiki", and how far is the bus station to the airport.Could you please give me the bus timetable and prices?
Thaks a lot for your help
Marco Italy

The Answer:

Hi Marco!
All buses from Thessaloniki to Chalkidiki start from the main bus station KTEL in Thessaloniki town. To reach this station you just have to pick up the bus from the airport no 78, which will take you in approximately 45 minutes there. Due to the fact that the bus schedules constantly change it is better to call them to fnd out regarding timetables and prices at 0030 2310 500111.
I hope I have helped!

Staying in Thessaloniki and travelling to Igoumenitsa

The Question:

Hello Hello!
We 3 girls travelling in greece and we will arrive in thessaloniki the 15th of august..we are looking for a nice relaxing place to stay near the beach - hopefully not too crowdy. We have a car and we can move around do you have any suggestions?
Sorry another question..I need to go back in Italy and I was think to take the bus/train to Igoumeniza and then the ferry to bari..do you think it\'s feasable? I have time and it\'s mine no flight trip
:)thanks, Giovanna

The Answer:

Hello to you too!
Thessaloniki is a beautiful city situated by the seaside where plenty of hotels are available to stay in. If you do not wish to stay in the city, then the area of Chalkidiki would be a fine idea with numerous beaches to choose from. To check for hotels consult the greek website www.fantasticgreece.com.
Regarding your second question, if you take the bus from Thessaloniki to Igoumenitsa it is approximately 5,5 hours and it is better than taking the train which stops too many times and will make your trip longer.
Hope I have helped!

Hi!

If you are referring to Stavros in Chalkidiki, then there are plenty of tourist attractions that you can visit there. Besides archaeological sites, there are also beautiful small villages on the first and the second peninsula of Chalkidiki. The third one is where the holy place of Agios Oros is located, which is a region that belongs to the monks og Agio Oros and only men can visit.

Stavros Chalkidiki Lodging

The Question:

I would like to ask whwer i could find an apartman in Stavros near the beach, aproximative 50meters from the apartman?

The Answer:

That is a tricky question!
There are numerous regions under this name in Greece. For example there is Stavros near the island of Ithaca, Stavros in Chalkidiki near Thessaloniki and Stavros in Larissa.
If you are referring to Stavros in Chalkidiki, then there are not many lodgings listed through the internet for this specific region of Greece and the information you give to me is very limited. Nevertheless, you could check out the website http://www.fantasticgreece.com/ to see if there are any hotels or apartments available in this area. If you can't find anything on that area, then Thessaloniki and many smaller villages in Chalkidiki are also very beautiful and offer many kinds of accommodation!
