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!

Akrotiri

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.
