Along with a licensed guide, you discover the secrets of this town, which was initially inhabited during the Late Neolithic time in the 4th millennium BC. While at its peak of development in the Minoan Bronze Age, it was destroyed by the Great Theran Eruption (17th century BC) and buried under tons of volcanic ash, the layers of which preserved the famous frescoes (wall paintings) of Akrotiri, artworks and objects of everyday life.
