  • Oia’s Main Street - One of our stops will be the renowned Oia village. Its stunning blue domes and white buildings beckon to be discovered. As we walk through the village’s narrow streets, we’ll learn about the captain houses, Sunset Avenue, and visit the famous Oia watchtower that commands a panoramic view of the Caldera.
  • Picturesque Blue Dome Santorini - In the village of Oia, the famous blue domes that attract millions of visitors each year are impossible to miss. Guaranteed great photo opportunities await. Our tour leader will guide you to all the best spots to enjoy the scene.
  • Akrotiri Archaeological Site - One of the greatest archaeological discoveries awaits you. This marvelous village, which existed more than 5000 years ago, had an advanced civilization. Three-story buildings, drainage systems, and pottery are some of the things you will see firsthand. It’s a fantastic place to step back in time and learn how people lived in the past.
  • Red Beach - Take a brief stop at the nearby famous Red Beach. The contrasting colors of the sea’s blue and the ground’s red create a stunning view, making this beach unique.
  • Perissa Black Sand Beach - At the stunning Black Beach in the idyllic location of Santorini, visitors are presented with a multitude of possibilities. They can choose to embark on an adventure, exploring the unique volcanic sand and the surrounding area, or they might decide to simply relax. The beach offers the perfect spot to soak up the sun, start a novel, or just enjoy the serene view. For those who are more active, swimming in the crystal-clear Aegean Sea is another fantastic option. In addition to these activities, there’s also an opportunity to indulge in an optional lunch.
  • Three Bells of Fira - From there, we will proceed to the distinctive and renowned viewpoint of Fira’s Three Bells. This spot is a must-see for any visitor to Santorini. It provides an unparalleled perspective of the island’s beauty, with panoramic views of the caldera and the surrounding architecture, including the famous three bells of Fira.
  • Megalochori - In addition to our main itinerary, we will also be paying a visit to Megalochori. Despite what its name, which translates to ‘the big village’, might suggest, Megalochori is, in fact, the smallest settlement in the area. This quaint, traditional village provides a unique opportunity for visitors to glimpse into the rich history of the island and experience the tranquility of its past, a stark contrast to the bustling crowds that flock to the island’s more popular tourist destinations. It is a serene retreat that gives you a break from the constant activity and allows you to immerse yourself in a different side of the island’s culture and history.
  • Pyrgos Kallistis - Located in the heart of Santorini, the village of Pyrgos, when interpreted from Greek, translates to the “watchtower of the island.” This name is deeply rooted in its history and geographical position. From its strategic location, the village provides unique and unparalleled views of the entire island, stretching from the sparkling Aegean Sea to the picturesque vineyards and traditional whitewashed houses that dot the landscape. The village’s layout is intricately designed like a labyrinth. This complex design was not just for aesthetics, but it was a defensive strategy to deter and confuse pirate invasions in the past, which were common occurrences in the Aegean Sea
  • Estate Argyros - Estate Argyros is a stunning winery that carries the rich heritage of an old family. Despite its traditional roots, it is not shy about embracing modernity, as seen in its state-of-the-art wine tasting area. This area is designed to provide an enhanced experience, where guests can immerse themselves in the world of wine. Wine tasting sessions are available for those who wish to explore the winery’s extensive range. These sessions, albeit at an additional cost, offer an opportunity to learn about and enjoy the winery’s finest selections in a serene and sophisticated setting.
  • Lost Atlantis Experience - The Lost Atlantis experience is a unique journey that immerses you in the mythology and history of the fabled city of Atlantis. As we explore the interactive museum, we’ll delve into the theories and legends surrounding Atlantis’s existence and its supposed connection to Santorini. The state-of-the-art 9D technology will transport you back in time, providing a captivating narrative that brings the story of Atlantis to life. From the interactive displays to the engaging video presentations, the Lost Atlantis experience truly is an unforgettable journey into the past, offering a different perspective on the island’s rich history and culture. The entrance is available for an additional fee.
  • Artemis Karamolegos Winery - To conclude our tour, we will visit a local winery where we will have the chance to taste some of the island’s most exquisite wines. We’ll learn about the unique viticulture that makes Santorini’s wines so special, rounding off our day with a toast to the breathtaking beauty of this unique island.
  • Symposion by La Ponta - As part of our enriching journey, we will also experience the Symposion by La Ponta in the cultural centre of Megalochori. This unique cultural experience offers a deep dive into Greek mythology and music history, introducing visitors to the Tsabouna, a traditional Greek bagpipe, and other ancient instruments. The center offers live performances and storytelling sessions, immersing the audience in the enchanting world of ancient Greek music and tales. This captivating cultural immersion is a must-visit for those interested in the rich history and vibrant culture of Greece.
