• 5Fun and Educational

  We enjoyed our tour from start to finish. Our guide was knowledgable and personable. We learned about the history of ancient Greek musical instruments, with the focus being on the lyre. The fun part of the tour is that because these are replicas of the original instruments we were allowed to try our hand at playing them. If you have any musical interest, this is the tour for you.

• 5Have you ever played a 2000-year-old instrument?

  This is the little gem that will be your best vacation memory. A truly unique place curated by a charismatic and knowledgeable guide- I will remember this place for its brilliant mix of history, culture, entertainment, and the museum staff’s genuine love of sharing ancient music. Go!

• 5A transformative musical experience in the heart of Thessaloniki

  Our experience at the Seikilo museum was incredible. Their mission of instruments needing to be "played, not displayed" rings true with the amazing professional lyre player beautifully demonstrating the reconstructed instruments. Whether you are a musician or not, hearing the ancient songs -- especially the epitaph from which the museum is named -- is a poignant experience that we will never forget. Thank you for having us, and keep up the great work!

• 5Top experience, Ancient Greek music! Perfect for amateurs and professionals alike.

  I was lucky enough to gain a spot on the incredible tour these luthiers offer of the eir passion project! Reimagining the use of the ancient lyre (and kithara), the mainstay of Ancient Greek music. We often attempt to recreate images of what Ancient Greece looked like. This is the closest I’ve ever felt to what Ancient Greece actually sounded like. Absolutely delightful!! Now I see lyres everywhere in sculpture and painting, and I can hear the music!!! One of my fave experiences in Thessaloniki!

• 5Superb dive into the musical past - interesting, informative and interactive.

  I was the only person in the group, but the whole tour was superb from beginning to end. It combined two of my chief interests - music and Greek history/culture. And I learned a lot - also great to try out some of the instruments ….although the noise produced wasn’t always so mellifluous, unlike that made by the wonderful guide/musician. So glad to have done that - and recommend other visitors to do the same.

About Thessaloniki

Thessaloniki, Greece's second city, is a Byzantine and Ottoman port on the Aegean, with a waterfront tower, Roman monuments and excellent street food.

Thessaloniki was founded in 315 BC and became one of the main cities of the Roman and Byzantine worlds. The White Tower stands on the waterfront promenade, a rounded Ottoman-era tower that is now the city's emblem, and the Rotunda and the Arch of Galerius recall the Roman ruler who made the city his base. The early Christian and Byzantine churches, among them Agios Dimitrios, are listed by UNESCO.

Top-ranked sights in Thessaloniki: White Tower (Lefkos Pyrgos), Aristotelous Square, Church and Crypt of Ayios Dimitrios.
