After meeting up with your guide, the trip starts with a stop at a breathtaking spot in the famous Santorini Caldera where you will be introduced to its history and its unique landscape.

Oia Town

Continue through the beautiful Santorini countryside to the village of Oia. Built-in the northern part of the caldera rim. Oia is the most photographed location in Santorini and a place where many artists have found their inspiration in Oia’s beauty, the traditional architecture, and the amazing sunset.

Enjoy the stunning views of the caldera, where many dwellings are built into niches of the volcanic rock. You will also have a panoramic view of the rest of Santorini and the Aegean Sea.

Imerovigli

You will visit the village of Imerovigli, situated on a higher cliff with an incredible view. In front of the village is an enormous rock called Skaros, which used to be the best spot to look out for pirates.

Firostefani

On the way, we’ll make a short stop in Firostefani to see the famous Blue Dome Church, the subject of so many Santorini’s postcards.

Prophet Ilias

Then, you will make your way to the peak of Prophet Ilias, the highest mountain that stands some 2,000 feet (600 meters) above the sea. Be amazed by the island vistas around you (360 degrees), and then follow your guide inside the ornate Greek Christian monastery perched at the mountain’s summit.

Pyrgos

From here you will proceed to the village of Pyrgos, the old capital, where you will take a guided walk along narrow paths to the ruins of the Venetian castle.

Akrotiri

Explore the myths and legends of Santorini, discovering the Akrotiri Excavations, a prehistoric Bronze Age city, frozen in time by ash that fell during the Minoan volcanic eruption 3600 years ago. Some speculate that this is the origin of the mythical city of Atlantis. Admire the elaborate drainage system, sophisticated multi-storied buildings, magnificent wall painting, and excavated furniture and vessels that show the former settlement’s great prosperity. Visitors are welcome to explore the archaeological site of Akrotiri at their own pace.

Note; A tour to the archaeological site of Akrotiri led by the historical guide will cost an additional 120 euros. Tours are 90 minutes long. Available in English only.

Akrotiri Red Beach

Next, you will head over to admire the Red and Black beaches. Enjoy a few minutes at the famous Red Beach. Located only some steps away from the ancient site of Akrotiri, it is covered with red volcanic sand and offers an amazing view.

Perivolos Black Beach

The Black Beach of Perivolos is the largest beach on Santorini and is covered with a black volcanic pebble. Take in the spectacular views of the Aegean Sea and the nearby islands. Enjoy an optional lunch at a seaside restaurant.

Venetsanos Winery

Our next stop is at a traditional Winery Venetsanos, where you will learn the secrets of winemaking and enjoy the tastes of the famous local wines.

The tour ends at your Hotel or at the cable car terminal, in Fira for Cruise Ship guests.
