Day 1: Athens - Santorini, Greece
Ferry to Santorini Island
Make your own way to the Piraeus Port from Athens for your morning ferry ride to Santorini Island. Upon arrival in Santorini, you will see why almost every postcard picture of Greece is of this island. It’s only in Santorini where you can find white-washed blue-domed churches, world-famous sunsets, spectacular views of a caldera, delicious wine, and of course the beaches! It’s an island filled with the treasures of Greece!
Take a transfer to your accommodation and get settled in.
Days 2 - 6: Santorini, Greece
Enjoy 5 free days in Santorini. Explore historical ruins and visit the numerous vineyards. Head to Akrotiri, a 3,500-year-old town preserved by volcanic ash and spend the day in Oia, famous for its white houses, blue-domed churches and windmills.
Discover the natural beauty of Red Beach, famous for its vivid red volcanic cliff framing the blue Mediterranean Sea and if you’re looking for some exercise why not hike from Fira to Oia, following the caldera’s edge with sweeping views over the island and the volcano. Another great hike is up to Ancient Thera, which is built on a steep ridge.
For a great night out, besides hitting the clubs, make sure to take in the spectacular sunsets. The classic spot is by the ruins of St Nicholas Castle, so can get very crowded. Another spot nearby is called Lookout Oia Panoramic View. Enjoy some jazz in the oldest bar Fira, which also happens to be one of the coolest.
Other nighttime activities include watching a movie in the open air. The cinema is set amongst palm trees and lush green foliage, about a Take a 15-minute walk from Kamari Beach.
Day 7: Santorini - Athens, Greece
Enjoy your last morning on this beautiful island and take an afternoon ferry back to Piraeus Port near Athens where your exciting trip will come to an end. Please make your own way to the hotel of your choice in Athens.
