  • Theologos Village a> (taste roast kid with spit, visit ancient capital Thassos, buy handmade Greek sandals in shoe shop, walk-and-gawk at traditional houses).
  • village Panagia (you will see traditional houses, study architecture, you will visit church, buy Greek products directly from the residents, visit creamery).
