Santorini Wine Tour

Explore the myths and legends of Santorini on a 4-hours Wine Tasting Tour and History of the Akrotiri Excavations, one of the most important prehistoric settlements of the Aegean. On this tour, you will also taste delicious wines at 3 traditional wineries.

Location

Uncover the myths of Santorini on 5-hours guided tour of the Akrotiri excavations, a prehistoric Bronze Age city. During the Minoan volcanic eruption some 3,600 years ago the city was frozen in time by ash that fell. Some speculate that this is the origin of Atlantis, a mythical city lost in time.
Admire the elaborate drainage system, the sophistical multi-storied building, their magnificent wall paintings, excavated furniture and vessels that show the former settlement’s great prosperity. Discover evidence of wine making that has been estimated to date back to the 3rd Millennium BC, making Santorini one of the oldest wine-making regions in the world.
Continue your wine discovery by strolling through the island’s basked wineries and learn about Santorini’s unique viticulture traditions. Taste a selection of 12 different wine styles from across Santorini and Greece, such as Assyrtiko, Nykteri, and the sublimely sweet Vinsanto wine.
