During a long vacation, sooner or later there comes a day when you get tired of lying idle on the beach. That's when you should take a bus tour of Neos Marmaras.
First of all, we advise you to see the historical village of Parthenonas. The active settlement existed until the twentieth century, but with the appearance of Neos-Marmaras the village was dramatically deserted - the inhabitants moved to the city. Since 1968, Parthenonas was considered a completely abandoned place, but after 12 years, history buffs gave the village a new life. They restored the old houses, built roads, and opened an ethnographic museum in the former school and now organize sightseeing tours from Neos Marmaras.
If you are interested in the cost of an excursion in Neos Marmaras, we can tell you that a boat trip along the Toroneos Bay (Kassandra) will cost 40 EUR. You can see the bay of Toroneos beach (Sithonia) and swim on the beach or see the remains of an ancient fortress. Afterwards you can visit the aforementioned Kelifos and enjoy swimming in the waters of the Aegean Sea directly from a tourist boat.
The excursions in Neos Marmaras also go to the famous religious mecca - Mount Athos. Here are preserved ancient icons, collected many ancient books. Recall that the entrance to the territory of the mountain women are forbidden, and men to get there need a special permit. But all interested tourists can go on a boat trip and admire the beauty of the shrine from the sea.
Travelers should know that in most cases the price for the tour does not include entrance fees to the territory of museums - from 2 to 5 EUR, to the monasteries - 10 EUR.
