Today you may take the Optional excursion. Start from the main port of Santorini Athinios port. The bus will pick you up from the nearest pick up point close to your location where one of our guide will guide you in one of our boats. The tour will start at 10:15. Our first destination will be the famous volcano of Santorini! After 20 minutes sailing, we will reach NeaKameni’s jetty. If you are interested to be guided at the volcano, you need to pay required entrance fee. You will stay at the volcanic island for 1.5 hr and in the end you will embark again to our boat for the next stop. Our next stop will be the island of PaleaKameni where the famous hot springs are located on the west side. We will stop there for 30 min at a distance of 30 meters from the shallow waters of Agios Nicholaos’ beach.

Next stop is the island of Thirassia. Thirassia is a miniature of what Santorini used to be several years ago. Today is a virgin island, still untouched by tourism and modern life style. We will stay there for 2 hours, so as to explore this picturesque and traditional village as well as to taste the authentic Santorinian cuisine. In the end of our tour, the disembarkation will be in the magical port of Oia. From there, you can either climb the 200 landings of the port or by using the local donkeys and pay the fee. After reaching the top of the village, you will have the chance to explore the unique alleys, discover its rich market as well as to enjoy the most breathtaking sunset of your life! After the sunset, you will head for the spot that our buses will be waiting you to take you back to your place.
