As you come ashore to the port of Athinios you will be captivated by the hues of deep blue in the sea and by the vista of the graphic island of Santorini ahead. Enjoy a scenic ascent via the colorful rocky sides of the caldera, affording a spectacular panorama of the island.
Drive to Oia, passing by many traditional villages, the crowning glory of peace and tranquility. Built on the northern part of the caldera rim, it is here where many artists have been inspired due to its magnificent location. Walk through the village along cobblestoned streets marveling at the wonderful panoramic views and admiring the traditional architecture. Enjoy some free time on your own, and browse in tiny shops selling ceramics, paintings, and jewelry.
The tour ends at Fira, the picturesque capital of Santorini perched on the volcano's caldera. Here you will have the option to either stay in town for further exploration or climb Fira’s narrow lanes to the cable car station and descend to the pier where water shuttles will take you back to the ship.
