Overview

Your journey begins with pickup from Athinios Port for a full-day adventure in Santorini’s iconic caldera.

The first stop is the volcano, where you’ll have 1.5 hours to hike its rugged trails and explore its unique landscape. A 5€ entrance fee is required to access the volcano. Your tour escort will guide you along the paths, sharing fascinating stories about its history and eruptions. Wear sturdy shoes and bring water for this moderate hike, which rewards you with stunning views.

Next, sail to the hot springs at Palea Kameni. The boat anchors 30-50 metres from the springs, requiring a swim to reach the warm, sulfur-rich waters. This activity is recommended for strong swimmers.

Continue to Thirassia to explore its villages, admire views, or enjoy a meal at a taverna.

After returning to Athinios Port, a bus takes you to Oia for 2 hours to explore its picturesque streets and watch Santorini’s famous sunset. Afterwards, the bus returns you to your starting point.
