All about the Philippi Tour.

Ancient Theatre of Philippi

UNESCO World Heritage Site

Powerful kings of the ancient Greek world, Roman generals and thousands of soldiers, the most important Apostle of early Christian times and the first European Christian. Find the traces they left behind with a single visit to the unique archeological site of Philippi!

Holy Monastery of Ecosifoinisis

The Holy Monastery of Panagia Eikosifoinissa is the second most important monastery in Macedonia where even today many believers flock to the Monastery to worship the grace of Panagia Eikosifoinissa and to kiss its handmade image.

 

Alistrati Cave is one of the largest and most impressive caves in Greece, and, according to many, in Europe.

Alistrati Cave is extremely old. Trapped organisms 2,000,000 years old have been found inside it, while ongoing research is being done to find paleontological findings that will testify to the existence of archangels, who are estimated to have lived in it.

The cave has a central role in the context of Ancient Greek Mythology, as when Pluto, god of Hades, stole Persephone, daughter of the goddess Demeter, led her through the Gates of Hell that was in this cave.
