Detailed itinerary
1
Come with us to visit the island of Santorini, explore the breathtaking landscapes of Santorini. Transfer from your
hotel, or a stop located next to it, to the port. The excursion boat starts its journey from Piso Livadi port at 8:00 and
reaches Athinios port at around 10:30. Upon arrival one of our buses will wait for you, departure for a tour that gives
you the opportunity to admire the traditional architecture of Oia and the picturesque view of Fira. You will stay for
about 1½hr to Oia where the Nautical museum, which is housed in an old mansion, is worth a visit. The boats built in
Santorini were the first that travelled in the Aegean 7.000 years ago, so the nautical art in the island is ancient.

Following the excursion, you will visit the capital of the island, Fira, for 2½ hr. Fira is built in a unique way in the entire
world on the top of the cliffs. There you can visit the Spiritual Center at the Venetian Gyzi Palace, in the center of the
Catholic Quarter, where cultural events such as painting exhibitions and theatrical performances take place. There is
also a permanent exhibition with old maps and documents relating to Santorini and the rest of the Cyclades.
Interesting will be the visit to the Archaeological Museum, which contains many findings representative of the island's
long history, mainly vases and figurines of Cycladic civilization. Then you have some free time to walk around and take
beautiful pictures. At 16:45 departure back to Paros and at 19:20 you will arrive at Piso Livadi. Transfer to your hotel
or a stop located next to it.
