Connection from Thessaloniki to Asprovalta/Stavros

The Question:

Hi Stavros,
is there any bus (or train) connection from Thessaloniki to Asprovalta/Stavros. Do you know how much would it cost to rent a car for three days in Thessaloniki?

Thanks for answering, Leo.


The Answer:

Hi Leo!

There is quite frequent KTEL bus connection from Thessaloniki to Asprovalta and Stavros every 1 - 1,5 hour. The first one is at 5.30 in the morning and the last one at 21.30. You can call on 0030 2310 522164 to find out more.
With the train I am afraid there is not a route that connects Thessaloniki with either Asprovalta or Stavros.
As far as the car rental is concerned, I cannot name a price as it really depends on the type of the car, the dates and the pick up/drop off location. You can insert here all the requested information and check it up by yourself.

Hope I helped you and that you' ll enjoy the region there!

Stavros in Thessaloniki Attractions

The Question:

We are going to Stavros which is east of Thessaloniki in September. Can anyone give any information on tavernas and the town of Stavros as we don't know what to expect.
Thanks

The Answer:

Hello!
The small town of Stavros is a beautiful tourist resort completely equipped with all modern facilities. It has grown quite popular to visitors from all over the world and has plenty to offer in terms of summer holidays.
All of the beaches in the area are marked with the blue flag, which means that they are officialy recognised by the state, as being beaches with clear water and properly equipped with sunbeds, ombrellas and showers. Besides that, the majority of beaches in the area offer sea sport facilities. One of the most attractive sites in the area is the 60 hectars plane forest by the beach where you can pic-nic, walk around etc. The town is also filled with plenty of beach bars under palm trees, tavernas and restaurants with different types of cuisine but the majority of them have specialty in fish and seafood. Since I haven't visited it myself, I can not recommed any specific ones but asking the locals as soon as you arrive, would be a fine idea!
Hope this has enlightened you!

Asprovalta Stavros Sites

The Question:

Hello, I would like to know more about place Stavros (near Asprovalta) since I\'m planning to go there in a few days.What are the places that I would supposed to visit there? And by that I mean on historical places! :)))
Thank You!!!

The Answer:

Hello to you too!
So Asprovalta mainly offers beautiful beaches but if you have a car then it is an excellent opportunity to explore some of the interesting historical sites of the area. There is a Tower from the Byzantine times in the nearby village of Vrasna that is preserved in an excellent condition. Moreover, you can also visit there the monastery of Saint George which was initially built in 1297. An excellent excursion is the beautiful lake Volvi which is under the protection of the state due to the rare species of flora and fauna. Lastly, you should not omit to visit the arcaheological site of Amfipolis. Amfipolis was a very significant city since the Ancient Times. It is from there that Alexander the Great started his journey to conquer the East, and even during Roman times Marc Antony used it is a base for his attacks in the Aegean Sea. Nowadays, you can admire the ruins of the ancient city and also visit the Arcaheologiacal Museum which is situated in the city entrance.
Hope I have helped!

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!
