Entry Tickets & Audio Tour of Akrotiri

About this experience

Entry tickets and audio tour of Akrotiri give access to one of the best-preserved prehistoric settlements in the Aegean. The site, located in the south of Santorini, was buried by a volcanic eruption around 1627 BC and excavated from the 1960s onwards by archaeologist Spyridon Marinatos. The protective roof structure allows visitors to walk through multi-storey buildings, paved streets, and drainage systems that date to the late Bronze Age. The included audio guide covers the history of the Minoan-influenced settlement, the excavation process, and the significance of finds such as frescoes, storage vessels, and furniture casts. Tickets cover site entry and use of the audio device for the duration of the visit.
