Delve deeper into antiquity on this private historical tour . Our itinerary takes us through idyllic landscapes in a fully equipped private minibus. Experience the prehistoric city of Akrotiri, stand next to the ruins of ancient Thera from the Greek and Roman era, and marvel at the fantastic exhibits at the Archaeological Museum of Fira and the Museum of Prehistoric Thera.
Ancient Thera is the name of an ancient perfectly round volcano island now known as Santorini. It was named after the mythical ruler of the island, Thera, and is known to have been inhabited by Greek Minoans as early as the 15th century BC when the volcano erupted resulting in a significant change to the shape of the island and killing many of the Minoan inhabitants.
Akrotiri was a Cycladic Bronze Age settlement on the volcanic Greek island of Santorini .
The settlement was destroyed in the Theran eruption sometime in the 16th century BC and buried in volcanic ash, which preserved the remains of fine frescoes and many objects and artworks. Akrotiri has been excavated since 1967 after earlier excavations on Santorini.
The Archaeological Museum of Thera is a museum in Fira, Santorini, Greece. It was built in 1960 to replace an older one which had collapsed by the 1956 Amorgos earthquake.
Its collection houses artifacts that begin from Proto-Cycladic marble figurines of the 3rd millennium BC, and continue on to the Classical period.
Explore the first museum in the world dedicated to the myth of Lost Atlantis.
Atlantis is the most famous mythological city in the world. Many places in the world have claimed the origin of the city but Santorini and the huge explosion of its volcano in the past is the most possible explanation of the myth.
As your cruise ship arrives, please note that due to the island's unique geography, the ship will anchor in the middle of Santorini. Upon arrival, you will be tendered to the Old Port of Fira. From there, to reach our meeting point you'll need to take the cable cars.
To make the most of your time and avoid long queues at the Old Port, we highly recommend obtaining tender tickets from your cruise ship a day before or early in the morning on the day of arrival. The earlier you disembark, the faster you can start exploring the wonders of Santorini with us.
Once you exit the cable cars, our friendly team will be waiting for you, holding a sign with your name. They will accompany you to our designated meeting point, where your Santorini adventure will begin.
To ensure a seamless experience, we suggest setting a meeting time two hours after the first tender starts from the cruise ship
