Highlights
  • Oia - The famous picturesque Oia Village
    Nestled in the heart of Santorini, Oia is a captivating village, recognized for its iconic blue-domed structures perched above the Aegean Sea. Frequently gracing Santorini postcards, Oia is a standout attraction on the island. The village’s scenic allure and quaint streets make it a sought-after stop on numerous tours. As part of our exploration, we’ll traverse a specially chosen route, showcasing major landmarks and breathtaking views, while also ensuring a tranquil experience away from the crowded areas.
  • Megalochori - The quiet and traditional village of Megalochori
    Next on our itinerary is the quaint village of Megalochori, a stark contrast to Oia’s bustling atmosphere. Here, we delve into the island’s traditional side, offering a glimpse of local life in bygone days. Our tour includes a visit to an authentic cave house, allowing us to step back in time and experience the island’s history first-hand. As we meander through the village’s main path, we capture the essence of local life, imagining residents exchanging stories from their balconies after a long day in the fields.
  • Symposion by La Ponta - Symposion Musical Presentation
    As we conclude our tour of the village, we will visit the Cultural Centre for a Symposio Music Presentation. Here, guests will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the traditional music of the island, played on ancient musical instruments like the lyra. This experience offers a deeper understanding of its cultural heritage. Journeying through narrow lanes, past charming homes, and into the heart of Santorini’s musical tradition is a true immersion in Santorini’s past.
  • Akrotiri Archaeological Site - Exploration of Akrotiri Excavations
    Commence the next stage of your exploration with a trip to the historic city of Akrotiri, a Bronze Age habitation remarkably conserved under volcanic ash from a 1620 BC eruption. As you stroll through the incredibly preserved ruins - the remnants of structures, the spectral outlines of streets, and the faint remnants of art - you’ll get an in-depth insight into the lifestyle and culture of the ancient Minoan civilization.

After the historical immersion, take a break at a charming local café, relishing the rich, intense taste of traditional Greek coffee, before diving back into the awaiting adventure.

*Please note, that a supplementary charge applies for a guided tour of the excavation site.

  • Red Beach - View of the Red Beach
    Experience a brief visit to the famous Red Beach, nestled alongside an archeological site. The beach stands out for its unique red cliffs and crystal-clear waters, making it a popular spot for creating unforgettable photographic memories.

This travel plan is fully adjustable and can be tailored to match your preferences and rhythm, ensuring a one-of-a-kind adventure. We are excited to unveil the deep history and astonishing landscapes of Santorini to you.

  • Akrotiri - Lunch at a traditional Tavern
    After a day filled with exploration and discovery, we invite you to unwind at a local traditional tavern in one of the charming villages. Here, you’ll have an array of appetizers and main dishes to choose from, offering a satisfying end to an exciting day.
