Boat Tours and Bus Tours in Santorini
Part of the island chain the Cyclades, Santorini island is most famous for its still active volcano that last erupted in 1956 causing widespread devastation to the island beautiful architecture that had dated back to the 18th century. These days the volcano is not showing any signs of erupting and the island has repaired and become even more beautiful than it was before.
Santorini is quite a small island with a total area of only ninety six square kilometers with most of the main tourist destinations and Santorini luxury hotels located in the villages dotted around island atop massive sheer cliffs with drops exceeding two hundred meters in most cases. In order to get a full appreciation of what the island of Santorini has to offer there are a number of boat tours which take place throughout the tourist season.
Santorini luxury hotels have information about the tours and can arrange bookings for visitors while they are staying there. In most cases the tours focus around visiting the still active volcano and allow such activities as swimming in the hot springs of Palea Kameni beach and visiting small nearby islands like Thirassia. Most of the tours last between three and eight hours and many include a stop off for a local Greek meal and allow people the opportunity to be dropped off on another part of the island to make their way back to their Santorini luxury hotels overland.
There is also a sunset boat tour that includes a carefully prepared local Greek dinner on board the boat which last about three hours and allows the guests to enjoy the fabulous Santorini sunset from the deck of the boat after sailing through the heart of the submerged volcano. Prices for these tours range between 20 and 50 euro.
Apart from boat tours, the travel agencies in Santorini offer organized tours with coaches and mini bus with experienced tour guides to the most significant sites of Santorini, as well as tours to traditional settlements, wineries, old churches, museums and archaeological sites. Ancient Thira and the Akrotiri excavations site are two popular sites in Santorini that you must not miss.
