Feel like you’ve travelled several decades back in time with the Thirassia day trip from Santorini, Count the 180 steps towards the pictorial village of Manolas where rugged mountainous scenery veils over traditional white houses on one side and the vast blue sea spreads out on the other. Identify how Thirassia was separated thousands of years ago from the main island of Santorini by the volcano and all the elements that shape the local communities with stories from your fun guide. Admire the black-pebble beach of Korfos enveloped in wind-beaten hill slopes. Join one of the most fascinating tours in Santorini among natural images and the small-town flow. Come across the abandoned cave houses in Akrilia and the featured blue dome church looming over the settlement like a sparkling jewel. Savour a hearty meal and some full-flavoured wine back at Thirassia’s port of Riva facing the Aegean.
