    INFORMATION
    What to See and Do in Chalkida

    The Euripus Tides

    Stand on the old bridge above the Euripus Strait and watch the famous “waters of Chalkida” phenomenon, where the current reverses direction every six hours—one of the city’s most fascinating natural sights.

    Walk to the Lighthouse

    After Papathanasiou Beach, follow the coastal path toward Kaki Kefali. The walk runs alongside the sea and ends at a small park near the lighthouse, offering benches, kiosks, and panoramic views over the Evian Gulf.

    Karababa Castle

    This Venetian castle, dating back to 1204, still preserves large sections of its walls. From the top, enjoy breathtaking views over the Euripus Strait and the city of Chalkida.

    For Ouzo & Meze

    Fresh fish, shellfish, tsipouro, ouzo, and sea breeze await you in Nea Artaki to the north and Nea Lampsakos to the south. There are also excellent local spots within the city, known mainly to locals, serving top-quality seafood and ouzo.

    By the Seafront

    A stroll along Chalkida’s central seaside promenade is a must. Along the way, you’ll encounter elegant neoclassical buildings, museums, and uninterrupted views of the sea that define the city’s unique character.

      Athens 4 days Group Tour from Germany

      Thank you very much for the group to Athens! They had a great time. They were very enthusiastic about the trip & guide Jason. he swimming/beach stop after Corinth was a big plus. They enjoyed the nature as addition to the city and culture. Always good to add that when visiting Corinth.

      The location of the hotel was very good, so a bus transfer in the evening was not always necessary. They could have easily come back via the metro to the hotel. That would have saved us real money.

      Thanks again and looking forward to all the coming groups!

      Αthens, Santorini and Corfu
      My Kids and I loved the trip except for our lost baggage from the Aegean airlines upon arrival at Athens at the start of the trip.Loved all the sightseeing. Tour guides and Pick up services were awesome!! Tour guides were very knowledgeable in their area and history of the city and my kids and I loved that. They answered all our questions. Pick up services were always on time.I just wish I had a little more time in Corfu to do the boat tour as I had planned. Wasn’t able to accomplish that. Loved the wine tasting, Oia and Fira in Santorini. Thank You so much for helping me plan this trip. Great memories made on this trip!!Savita
