Description

Travel around Santorini and relish all the beauties of the island within a day. An expert English-speaking guide will always be by your side to tell you everything you need to know regarding what you see and taste.

Your tour will commence with a visit to Prehistoric Thera, the place connected with the popular myth of the Lost Atlantis. A guided tour around the archaeological site will unveil parts of the Minoan civilization that was buried under the volcanic ash for hundreds of years following the great volcanic eruption of 1612 BC. Hear your licensed guide narrate stories of the past, including the mythical tale of Atlantis, the fictional island mentioned in Plato's works. Of course, your guided tour won't be over before passing by Akrotiri, the Minoan Age settlement that proves the existence of inhabitants on the island since 3000 BC.

Following your Akrotiri visit, you will be taken to Red beach, the lunar Santorini beach that never fails to impress its visitors. Explore the unique site and listen to your guide explain how it came to look like it does today.

Up next comes a visit to the Prehistoric Museum of Santorini. There, you will get to see the course of Thera in prehistoric times through selected finds dating back to the 18th and 17th centuries BC.

Following your archaeological tour, it's time to indulge in Santorini's flavors. Taste 4 distinctive wines of Santorini made from local varieties grown on the volcanic land, and pair them with a 4-course lunch.

Your next stop will take you to the iconic Blue Dome, to marvel at the striking views out to the settlement of Fira and Firostefani, as well as the endless blue of the Aegean Sea. Moving forward, you will take a refreshing break on the longest black-sand beach on the island before heading to the picturesque village of Pyrgos, and walking among the whitewashed building, cobbled alleys, and flower yards.

Your next stop will be the highest point of Santorini, Prophet Elias, where you can enjoy the breathtaking view of the Aegean and snap Instagram-worthy pictures.

Last but not least, you will get to marvel at the heart-stoping sunset Santorini is known for. And what better way to do so than with a cocktail in hand? Have the time of your life and get the best out of Santorini, all within a day!

This was the first time I handed the job over to an agency, and so did not know what to expect. It was amazing!!! We spent a few days in Santorini and Greeking.me was able to introduce things to our itinerary that we would never have thought of. We stayed to a villa that was more than I could have hoped for in Santorini, with what we are convinced was the best view on the entire island!!

We had a wonderful time with Stefanos, who has an easy charm and a wealth of knowledge about Thira. From Oia to the monastery to the lighthouse and home through the Black Beach - and of course, the winery! Our expectations were exceeded. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Kostas, our tour guide, was very informative. We were a group of 6 people in total, and he made sure that we were able to see everything that was on the itinerary even though we had gone over in time. I would highly recommend this tour. In my opinion, it is beneficial to take this tour in the beginning of your stay because you get a general overview of what there is to do and see on the island.

Must do tour in Santorini. Our guide was Clio, who was extremely knowledgeable. We visited some sites that you have to see in Santorini including a Monastesry and finished with a wine tour of an old winery. I have no hesitation recommending this tour.
