11 Thermal Baths in Greece Worth Booking

1.Lake Vouliagmeni Thermal Spa And Temple Of Poseidon Private Full Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 578 reviews · 6 to 7 hours (approx.) · from $171Our pick

Leave Athens by private air-conditioned car or minivan for Lake Vouliagmeni’s mineral-rich waters, a coastal Greek meal, and the Temple of Poseidon. Drivers such as George, Theo, Melina, Jason, and Dimitris add local history, food tips, and flexible timing. Bring towels, dry clothes, and €39 for entry fees.

“Our guide George was really amazing. A local Athenian his whole life, he knows all about the country, economics, locations to see and food to eat. He remembered each of our names and I could not recommend him more! I would use him everywhere we go if I could :) The lake was beautiful and very peaceful. You can order drinks and food next to the water. But the water was very cold this time of year so might not be worth the $20 per person price. Definitely bring a towel cause they rent them for $40 a piece! Cape Sounion was beautiful but need to make the time to…”

2.Pozar Thermal Baths and Edessa Day Trip from Thessaloniki

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 216 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $59Best value

Travel from central Thessaloniki to Pozar’s mineral-rich hot springs, then continue to Edessa’s dramatic waterfalls. English-speaking guides such as Eva, Eleni, Lazarus, and Yannis lead the day, with free time for bathing, walking, photos, and a traditional lunch.

“This is a great day trip. Very well run. The theme is water with the warm light-blue springs of Pozar to the spectacular Pella waterfall. The spring baths are soothing, but the management is illogical, so expect that. There are numerous views of the waterfall. Hiking paths surround it. We even saw a rainbow. Our guide Eleni was very knowledgeable and accommodating to all our needs. She's a star. She was ably assisted by Giorgios. Highly recommend this tour!”

The fish made for a wild experience and brought plenty of giggles. Lunch was also delicious! Note that you must pay the entrance fees for the lake in addition to the tour price.”

“We had an amazing day with Pan! We were only 4 on the tour and I found it intimate and wonderful.

One stop was the thermal Spa in Loutrakis and he provided towels and helped us with entrance and waited for us to continue. The tour itself didn’t incline entrance fees or lunch but that was ok…but we had an option which was nice. Some tours you have to… It was a long day but we thoroughly enjoyed it as it is a…”
