Allou fun park is the best theme park in Greece. This entertainment complex is located about 10 km from the city centre, so it can be easily approached by bus from Omonia Square if you stay in the downtown area.

It has many attractions, including a Ferris wheel 40 meters high, which offers an excellent panorama of Athens.

Magic Park is a classic amusement park in Thessaloniki with almost 36 attractions and excellent infrastructure and is one of the best theme parks in Greece.

The park covers an area of 65,000 sq. m. Numerous carousels and attractions, including roller coasters, a flash tower, a Ferris wheel, slot machine halls, a bungee jump, racing cars, a “ghost train”, a “panic room”, and water attractions, are designed for any age.
