Private
This is a private experience at one of the most important sites of Santorini. You will explore the famous excavations of Akrotiri with an expert guide. Learn more about the Minoan city that lay buried for centuries after the volcanic eruption and experience the highlights of the Minoan civilization at your own pace!
During our Santorini Private Tour at the archaeological sites of Akrotiri, you will be able to stroll around the semi-crumbled, multi-storied buildings guided by an archaeology-expert guide, and view the frescoes, pottery and other relics as you hear how life would have been here hundreds of years ago. Of particular interest is the ingenious drainage system that testifies to the sophistication of the engineers of the time.
Your children will be amazed by all the stories about Akrotiri’s links to Plato’s Atlantis, an ancient city that was said to have disappeared after the Greek gods were angered!
After Akrotiri, you will visit a local pottery workshop where the kids will learn how to make their own pots in the tradition of the Minoans!
