Archaeological Bus Tour to Akrotiri Excavation and Red Beach

Start with the breath-taking view at the Prophet Elias Monastery and visit the picturesque monastery.

Then you will have free time at the Red Beach to simply enjoy the colorful formations of the mountain and/or visit Akrotiri Bay for coffee or lunch with Greek traditional mezedes and ouzo (not included in the price). Perivolos, with its black sandy beach comes next. There you will have enough time to enjoy swimming, explore the area and taste fresh cooked fishes at the local taverns. Last stop, one of the most popular wineries of Santorini, for a wine tasting experience (not included in the price).
