Itinerário

1. The tour begins with a journey to Oia, where you can take in the scenic views of nearby islands and the Aegean Sea. Oia is the most visited village in Santorini and the second largest after Fira, the island’s capital town. Oia lies in the northern part of the caldera, situated above an impressive cliff overlooking the volcano and the island of Thirassia. Oia has become globally famous for its authentic Cycladic beauty, whitewashed houses, labyrinth-like alleys, and amazing hotels, even though the number one thing Oia is renowned for is its magical sunset. Hundreds of people gather every evening to watch the sun setting above the Aegean Sea and capture the most beautiful sunset in Greece. Once you reach the top of the hill where Oia is located, you can marvel at the view of the caldera before exploring the narrow streets with whitewashed buildings. The village of Oia is certainly the most picturesque village in Santorini. Some may even claim it is the prettiest one in Greece!

4. Next, you can visit the old capital of Santorini, Pyrgos, and walk along the narrow streets until you reach the Venetian castle. Hilltop Pyrgos Kallistis sits in the Mount Profitis Ilias foothills and offers a 360-degree view of the mainland, the volcano, and the sea. Pyrgos comprises the highest-located settlement of Santorini surrounded by vineyards producing renowned Assyrtiko white wines. Its steep, medieval alleys are home to wine bars and tavernas, galleries, and boutiques. Many consider it the hidden gem of Santorini since it has managed to distance itself from radical tourism development.

7. The Bronze Age settlement of Akrotiri was one of the most important Minoan urban centers and ports in the Aegean Sea when it was covered by volcanic ash in the 17th century BC. Although the earliest evidence of habitation dates to the Late Neolithic times (around 6,000 years ago), it was not until the Late Bronze Age (circa 4,000 years ago) that Akrotiri developed into one of the main urban centers and ports in the Aegean Sea. The town of Santorini was covered in ash following a volcanic eruption on the island, preservation of the settlement is exceptional, making this one of the most significant archaeological sites in Greece.

Here you will have free time to enjoy the breathtaking view of the caldera and the volcano while having a refreshment, coffee, a beer, or lunch till the time comes to walk to the cable car for your departure!

About Santorini

Santorini é um crescente de falésias vulcânicas no Egeu, com aldeias caiadas e cúpulas azuis sobre uma caldeira inundada e famosos pores do sol.

A ilha é a borda de um antigo vulcão cuja erupção deixou uma vasta caldeira preenchida pelo mar. No seu bordo, Fira, a capital, e as aldeias de falésia de Imerovigli e Firostefani agarram-se às encostas, enquanto Oia, na ponta norte, é célebre pelos seus pores do sol sobre moinhos de vento e casas caiadas.
