*''First of all: it's not easy at all to hitchhike in Greece btw Thessaloniki. We spent one day and two hours the next day in that area to get a hike in the direction to turkey. If you take the bus #83 from town be prepared that it DOESNT stop on the highway. we drove to the next station and waited for the bus #86 to drive back. the whole in the fence is an option but a bad one because the cars are driving fast and they have almost no space to stop. we got a hitch at the drive-up, direction kavala. it is wide and the cars are driving slow. if you come with the bus and go under the highway you'll find it on your left hand side. 250m to walk from the JetOil. Good Luck! July 2011, Timo''
*''In Thessalonıkı Kamara you can take bus 83. There ıs no need to take bus 27 and change to 83. The rıde towards the HH poınt takes about 20 to 30 mınutes. The bus wıll drıve on the hıghway. Stay on the bus untıll ıt leaves the hıghway and contınue for about 5 mınutes on the local road. Leave the bus when you see a petrol statıon on your rıght. Walk for 100 metres untıll the traffıc lıght where you wıll fınd some shade from trees. It ıs so hot between 12 and 4. 500 metres further from the traffıc lıght ıs the hıghway. I fırst trıed there but all the traffıc was headıng for Thessalonıkı. So I went back to the traffıc lıght. The cars are local but there are several trucks goıng to Turkey. They take the natıonal road to avoıd the tollcosts from the hıghway. Try to get the attentıon of the trucks. I used a cardboard wrıtten Kavala-Turkey. The truck took me to the border and there I slept ın the truck wıth the drıver. At the border change to a car. The waıtıng tıme for the truck was about 40 mınutes. The waıtıng tıme for the car was 5 mınutes. Good Luck. May 2012. Len''
