Santorini caldera tour
| At first, our boat stops on the little dock of the famous Volcano,
where we will walk towards the top of the island. While walking, our
experienced guide talks about the intense volcanic activity of the last
3000 years! The crater still seems active, as hot fumes are released in many points! |
|
|
Next, we are heading to the Hot Springs, where
we will make a 50-minute stop for swimming in the suplhur springs of
the volcano. Another major proof of the strong volcanic activity still
today, Hot Springs have beneficial effects against rheumatisms, arthritis and other diseases.
|
| The island of Thirasia is our final destination, where we will stay 2 hours for swimming and lunch. Thirasia is a small, very picturesque island, ideal choice for nice walks, swimming and lunch in the little port of Korfos or in the traditional village Manolas.
On the way back, the boat stops just for a few minutes in the port of Armeni in Oia.
If you wish, you can leave the group here and visit the village of Oia ,
famous for its breathtaking sunset. The red stones of lava along with
caves, numerous churches and multi-coloured houses are the ultimate
challenge for every single photographer... In the night you can return
to your hotel by the public transportation or by taxi. |
