  • A Day in the Evros Delta

Full description

Start with the boat tour while the birds are most active in the cooler morning hours, then use the drive back toward the city to stop at Traianoupolis — the Roman ruins and thermal springs sit almost directly on the route between the delta and Alexandroupolis.

This is a half-day-plus-extra rather than a rushed morning trip — budget the whole day if you want time at both stops without feeling hurried, and check the hydrotherapy centre's current status before planning around the baths specifically.
