Itinerary
➤ Oia: Begin your sightseeing adventure in the north of the island, at the scenic village of Oia: one of Santorini’s most visually striking locations, the village has long inspired artists with its beauty, and sits overlooking the island’s caldera.
➤ Firostefani: Make a short stop in Firostefani to see the famous Blue Dome Church, the subject of so many Santorini postcards.
➤ Akrotiri Archaeological Site: Santorini is also home to its own ancient ruins: the site of Akrotiri, an ancient Minoan village that was buried by the island’s colossal volcanic eruption. Don't miss the chance to see the incredible, well-preserved remnants of the settlement for yourself. (optional visit)
➤ Black Beach: Head south to admire the Black beach. Enjoy an optional lunch at a seaside restaurant, such as fresh seafood with a Greek salad, on the beach.
➤ Profitis Ilias: Next, we take you to Profitis Ilias, which is the highest hill in Santorini. From its top - at about 1900 feet (567 m) - your sight can be lost in the panoramic view of the Aegean Sea. There, you get to visit a Greek Orthodox chapel, listen to the sounds of Byzantine music and get a taste of their hand-made products.
➤ Monastery of Profitis Ilias (highest point): Head to Profitis Ilias, which is the highest hill in Santorini. From its top (567 m) enjoy the panoramic view of the Aegean Sea. There, you will get to visit a Greek Orthodox chapel, listen to the sounds of Byzantine music and get a taste of their hand-made products. (optional visit)
➤ Local Winery: Lastly, wind your tour down with an indulgent stop at a local winery. Santorini has produced its own wine since ancient times, and sampling its varietals is the perfect way to get a taste of the island’s history. (optional visit)
