Tour Overview

At the appointed time, our staff will pick you up from your hotel to begin an unforgettable tour of Santorini´s highlights.

After that, we will embark on a guided tour of Akrotiri, the "Prehistoric Pompei" or "Lost Atlantis." We will delve into the fascinating history buried and preserved by volcanic ash during one of the largest eruptions in human history (17th century BC), and uncover the mysteries of this ancient Minoan Bronze Age settlement.

We will be transferred to the iconic village of Oia, renowned as the most photographed place in Greece. Immerse yourself in its legendary charm and enjoy leisure time to experience the world-famous sunset. Wander through its enchanting streets, adorned with white cave houses, and witness the magical hues as the sun dips below the horizon.

Later we will indulge in free time on our own to enjoy lunch and relaxation at one of the Cyclades' longest black sandy beaches, Perissa beach, a popular spot on Santorini. Immerse yourself in the soothing ambiance of this renowned beach, soaking up the sun and savoring a delightful meal by the sea.

Afterwards, we will head to a local winery to experience the distinct flavors of Santorini's wines through wine tasting. Learn about the island's rich winemaking history and sample unique varieties, immersing yourself in the essence of one of Europe's oldest vineyards.

We will conclude our journey with a scenic drive to Profitis Ilias Mountain, Santorini's highest peak at 567 meters. Pause to admire the striking panoramic view that unfolds before you, showcasing the entire island in all its splendor.

Greca Tip: Indulge in the allure of Santorini's authentic villages, archaeological wonders, and breathtaking sunsets, and take as many photos as you can, creating memories to last a lifetime.
