Vergina Royal Tombs Day Trip
Discover the ancient Macedonian capital of Aigai and Philip II's tombs.
Overview & Important Information
Vergina (ancient Aigai) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site of immense historical and archaeological importance. On this private day trip, you will travel from Thessaloniki to see the spectacular underground museum housing the royal tombs of the ancient Macedonian kings, including Philip II, the father of Alexander the Great.
The museum of the Royal Tombs is built inside a modern protective tumulus. Here you will see the actual unlooted tombs, the golden larnax containing the remains of Philip II, and breathtaking gold oak wreaths. Following the museum visit, your driver can take you to the nearby town of Veroia for a stroll and a traditional lunch before returning to Thessaloniki or Halkidiki.

The underground museum of the Royal Tombs in Vergina is a historical marvel. I love taking guests here because the actual tombs of Philip II are inside the climate-controlled hill museum itself. The golden wreaths and artifacts are incredible. We often stop in Veroia afterward for a stroll and local pastries!
