What you can expect

Embark on a journey to the pinnacle of Santorini, where the Monastery of Prophet Elias awaits, followed by a voyage into the ancient world at the Akrotiri archaeological site. Delight your palate with the flavours of local wines at a charming winery, and conclude your day with the mesmerising sunset spectacle in Oia.

Your adventure commences with a pick-up, venturing southward to the awe-inspiring Monastery of Prophet Elias. Perched at an elevation of 1,853 feet (565 m), this sacred edifice offers not only profound insights into Christianity but also panoramic vistas of the island's entirety and the glistening waters below.

Continue your odyssey to the Akrotiri archaeological site, a testament to the Minoan civilisation, buried beneath the ashes of the Theran eruption in 1627 BC. Immerse yourself in the remnants of this lost civilisation, from intricate frescoes to exquisite pottery and architectural marvels.

Pause for a moment of indulgence at a local winery, where a tantalising array of Santorini wines awaits your discerning palate. Engage in a brief tutorial, unraveling the distinctive characteristics that render Santorini wines truly exceptional.

Proceed to Fira, Santorini's capital, where whitewashed buildings perch atop caldera cliffs, offering unparalleled vistas. Absorb the splendour before journeying onwards to the idyllic village of Oia. As the sun begins its descent, behold a scene that has stirred the souls of artists for generations. Witness the luminous orb cast vibrant hues of ochre and crimson across the Aegean Sea, enveloping the picturesque town of Santorini in a tapestry of colourful brilliance and shadowy allure.
