Overview

This tour offers a perfect introduction to Skiathos Town, focusing on Plakes, the old part of town that few holidaymakers visit. The walk begins at Papadiamantis House, home of the renowned Greek author Alexandros Papadiamantis (1851-1911). It continues through traditional neighborhoods where time feels slow, offering a chance to explore local churches. Your guide will share insights into the island's daily life and history.

The walk proceeds to the Skiathitian House, a restored townhouse now serving as a museum, displaying antiques and traditional costumes that reflect the island's rich history. After the tour, enjoy a taste of local liqueur made by the museum’s owner.
