Santorini Day Trip With Wine Museum And Sunset In Oia

About this experience

Your Experience This tour gives you a unique opportunity to unearth many of Santorini’s fascinating mysteries. Kick off your tour with a guided visit to the archeological sites at the historic town of Akrotiri. The next stop is the famous volcanic beach of Santorini, known commonly as Red Beach. Dure to rockfalls in the area, you will not be able to walk all the way down to the beach. However, you will have ample time to photograph the beautiful crimson lava cliffs. Your guide will then lead you to Emporio, one of the oldest villages in Santorini that continues to cling to its traditions. Walk around the 15th-century fortress and marvel at the wonderful Cycladic architecture. Take a short lunch break at a popular black sand beach on the island known as Perissa Beach. Once you are fully recharged, sit back and relax as the vehicle winds its way up the Profitis Ilias Mountain. Here, you will be able to get an unobstructed view of the surrounding calderas and islands from the highest point in the region. There is also an orthodox monastery at the peak that is worth a visit. Dig into the fascinating history of the Koutsoyannopoulos Wine Museum, which is located inside a natural cave labyrinth.
