Sublime Christmas Tour in Halkidiki

Christmas is a time of joy, happiness, family, and lots of presents, but in Greece, you might experience some different traditions throughout the holiday season since the Greeks celebrate Christmas slightly differently from other Christians. On Christmas eve, tradition dictates that children begin caroling or ‘Kalanta’ from the early morning going door to door spreading wishes and receiving treats, in the old days, money was scarce back then. If their Kalanta wishes were not received with a treat, a curse would be bestowed upon the …stingy household. Experience this magic in Halkidiki with this professionally organized trip with our local guide. Perfect for those who are visiting the city for the first time and want to get the most out of the Christmas spirit!
