What You’ll Experience

1

Firostefani

The village of Firostefani is located in the northern part of Santorini, between the famous towns of Fira and Imerovigli. Officially, this location is perceived as a separate village. However, the truth is different. It extends the village capital, Santorini's infamous Fira. Since Firostefani is located at the highest point of Fira, the name of this settlement can be translated as the Crown of Fira. In Greek, Stefani means crown. Therefore, it is the Crown of Nature.
15 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
2

Imerovigli

Visit Imerovigli, the highest town in Santorini, with white houses and blue-domed churches. Since Imerovigli is a preserved traditional settlement, the architectural style of the building remains unchanged, mainly in Cycladic and primarily local Fira style. Today, Imerovigli is one of the most developed tourist destinations in Santorini, with first-class hotels, restaurants, and other shops visited by tens of thousands worldwide.

3

Oia

Oia village is one of the most popular and visited places in Santorini. Oia is a small town and former community in the South of the Aegean Sea, on the Islands of Thera and Thirasia, in the Cyclades, Greece. It covers the entire island of Thirasia and the northwestern part of Santorini, which it shares with the municipal unit of Santorini. Oia is known for its breathtaking sunsets, but its sunrise is also magical. There are two types of dwellings: cave houses dug out of the volcanic rock on the Caldera rocks and captain houses. Lovely Oia is the perfect place to relax in Santorini, with its pastel-colored houses, windmills, and churches with domes descending the hillside. This is one of the most popular holiday destinations on the island, but if you are staying elsewhere, it is worth a visit during a day trip.
1 hourAdmission Ticket Free
4

Castelli of Pyrgos

Visit the castle of Pyrgos and feel like a local. In the traditional village of Pyrgos, the highest settlement in Santorini, you can admire the atmospheric Castle of Pyrgos. Built around 1580, this is probably the last of the island's five fortified settlements. Its location, chosen for strategic reasons, offers unique views of vast plains and the sparkling Aegean Sea.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
5

Estate Argyros

The beautiful and modern Argyros winery estate is located on the outskirts of Episkopi-Gonia, about 5.5 km southeast of Fira. Argyros' spacious tasting room with ocean views is in the heart of their grape estate. Taste the four different glasses of wine at the second-biggest winery in Santorini.
45 minutesAdmission Ticket Included
6

Kamari Beach

This is one of the most popular beaches on the island. The cosmopolitan beach is located in the southeast of Santorini and is bordered by stunning cliffs that provide a dramatic backdrop. It's a lengthy beach covered in black volcanic shingle rather than sand. Kamari Beach is separated from Perissa by a large rock called Mesa Vouno at one end. The beach is fantastic also. The only downside is the pebbles, which might not be the most comfortable to walk on on a hot summer day, but a good pair of beach shoes can provide an instant fix. It can be challenging to get in and out of the water in some parts, but once you are in, the water is gorgeous. There is a much better beach at the far end of Kamari near the big rock. Getting into the sea there is much easier, although the shallow waters quickly become deep. The beach there is also finer - more like sand - but still not great for making sandcastles. It is also a quieter end of Kamari and better for families.
