You will have the chance to stroll down its narrow stone-paved paths and enjoy some coffee somewhere overlooking the vast blue of the Aegean Sea.

Leavin Oia behind us, we will move on to the Monastery of Profitis Ilias, where you will get a glimpse of the spiritual side of the island. the monastery was built by two monks in 1711 and features an exterior stone wall that makes it resemble a fortress.

Great!! - Ignatious was our guide! He was awesome! We should have known better than to book for 2:00!! Our ship got in at 1, we thought an hour was sufficient to meet him…. No way. It took a long time to wait on the ship to be called to our tender boat. Then after getting off, you take a cable car way up to the city. By the time we met our guide it was 3.25!! Any other company would say sorry, you missed it! But he was great!! Showed us tons of things, the top of Santorini and the blue domes!! He even made us a reservation for a fabulous dinner!! Loved our day there!!! 👏🏼👏🏼

We had a two week visit to Athens and several of the Cyclades islands. - Fantasy Travel made our visit to Greece stress free. They took care of everything for us - transfers, hotels, boat tours, walking tours, flights, and ferries. We didn’t have to worry about anything - we were able to just relax, and enjoy the beauty and charm of Greece and all the lovely hospitality of her people.
