A guided tour to Akrotiri is a unique opportunity to learn about the most important archaeological site in Santorini. Akrotiri is sometimes called Greek Pompeii. This remarkably well-preserved ancient Minoan city was buried by a volcanic eruption 3,600 years ago. It was discovered in 1967 near the modern village of Akrotiri. Archaeologists discovered at the site pottery, furniture, advanced drainage systems, and three-story buildings. Many believe the disaster and the site itself were the inspiration behind Plato’s story of Atlantis.  During the guided visit you will walk through the ruins of the city and learn about its history and destruction. The guide will also explain habits and lives of the past civilisations underlined with displayed material on hand. Note, only official licensed tour guides are allowed to guide inside archaeological sites in Greece.

Excellent guide. Knowledgeable. 10/10 recommend. Kostas was friendly, engaging, and provided great historical context as we toured the ruins.

The views and seeing them on the back of a horse was amazing. Sharing this experience with my family. Riding on the cliffs and thru town was so fun the it was something the whole family enjoyed!

Kostas is fantastic. We did the Akrotiri tour and as a former archeology student, he obviously loves the place and is happy to share all the information with you. If we went there by ourselves, we'd probably spend 20 minutes there without knowing much about what we're looking at. With Kostas, it was an altogether different experience - he put things into context for us, told us what we were seeing and why it was special. He also had some visualisations ready on his iPad. Along the way, he told us a lot about the history of Santorini and was also ready to share his thoughts about what life is like there. Gi with Kostas!
