Oia Sunset and Traditional Villages Full Day Tour

1. Akrotiri Archaeological Site
   1h · Admission ticket not included
   Following a pick-up from your hotel, transfer by air-conditioned coach to the archaeological site of Akrotiri (**please note that every Tuesday the archaeological site of Akrotiri will be closed**). Explore an ancient city that was frozen in time after a volcanic eruption 3,600 years ago. Step inside with your guide and learn about the Minoan city before the devastating event occurred.
   
   Gaze in awe at the ruins of multi-storied buildings that date back to the 16th century and admire the intricately designed drainage system that hints at a talented civilization far more advanced than its time suggests. Stroll along the main street, lined with old stores and warehouses from the ancient city. Learn about the traditional ceramic artefacts, such as pithoi (earthenware jugs).
2. Emporio
   1h
   Our next stop will be at Emporio Village where you can explore one of the oldest and most authentic traditional villages of Santorini, built like a small labyrinth and visit its medieval fortress (15th century).
3. Perissa Black Sand Beach
   1h
   After that continue towards Perissa Beach and enjoy free time to have lunch and relax at one of the longest black sandy beaches in the Cyclades and the most popular beach of Santorini.
4. Monastery of Profitis Ilias
   30m
   Profitis Ilias Mountain will be our next stop where you will finish your tour with a short stop at the highest peak of Santorini (567 meters) to admire the striking panoramic view of the entire island.
5. Venetsanos Winery
   1h · Admission ticket included
   Wine tasting at Winery.
6. Sunset in Oia
   2h
   Meet your guide again in the early evening for the transfer to Oia, a quintessential Greek village that’s known for its sugar cube houses and blue-domed churches. Join the legions who flock to Oia to watch the sunset, and stroll down streets nestled into the side of the cliffs overlooking the spectacular caldera.
   
   Follow your guide to the ruins of a Venetian castle, known as the Kastro of Oia, and gaze down from the village and caldera to the sea. Return to the coach for the transfer back to your hotel.
