Activity itinerary

Santorini Old Harbor

15m

Meet your guide and begin the ascent into the heart of Santorini.

Pyrgos

45m

Begin in Santorini’s oldest settlement, perched on a hilltop and encircled by vineyards. Walk through twisting alleys built for protection during pirate raids and explore the remains of the 16th-century Venetian castle. The village’s cave houses and historic churches create a timeless atmosphere, while panoramic views offer a perfect introduction to the island.

Megalochori - Traditional Village

30m

This peaceful Cycladic gem features white-washed facades, elegant bell towers, and narrow stone pathways. Explore traditional cave homes and quiet courtyards where daily life unfolds slowly. The central square is ideal for a short stop to enjoy the charm and authenticity of a village untouched by mass tourism.

Emporio

1h

Once Santorini’s main commercial centre, Emporio is a fortified medieval maze. Wander past stone houses built tightly together to protect residents from pirates and step inside the well-preserved 15th-century castle. Its winding alleys, towers, and hidden corners reveal centuries of local history and architectural ingenuity.

Akrotiri Archaeological Site

1h

Explore one of the Aegean’s most important prehistoric settlements, buried under volcanic ash for nearly 4,000 years. The excavations reveal multistorey buildings, colourful frescoes, paved streets, and advanced drainage systems that bring the ancient Minoan civilisation vividly to life. A must-see for history lovers.

Santorini Old Harbor

30m

After a day filled with authentic flavours and island traditions, return comfortably to the cruise port.
