Day 01

IA(Oia)

Oia is the most photographed location in Santorini and a place where many artists have found their inspiration in Oia’s beauty, the traditional architecture, and the amazing sunset.

Enjoy the stunning views of the caldera, where many dwellings are built into niches of the volcanic rock. You will also have a panoramic view of the rest of Santorini and the Aegean Sea.

Imerovigli

On the way, we’ll make a short stop in Imerovigli to see the famous Blue Dome Church, the subject of so many Santorini’s postcards.

Megalochori Traditional village

This is another beautiful village on the island that is worth seeing. Your guide will take you through the narrow streets, so you can see how the locals live.

Prophet Elias Monastery

Then, you will make your way to the peak of Prophet Elias, the highest mountain that stands some 2,000 feet (600 meters) above the sea. Be amazed by the island vistas around you (360 degrees), and then follow your guide inside the ornate Greek Christian monastery perched at the mountain’s summit.

Venetsanos Winery

Our next stop is at a traditional Winery Venetsanos where you will learn the secrets of winemaking and enjoy the tastes of the famous local wines with the famous view of cladera.

Perissa Black Beach

Next, you will head over to admire the Black beach. The Black Beach of Perivolos is the largest beach on Santorini and is covered with a black volcanic pebble. Take in the spectacular views of the Aegean Sea and the nearby islands.
