Step Back in Time
When most people think of Santorini, they picture whitewashed houses, blue domes and spectacular sunsets. But the island has another story — one that begins thousands of years ago.
Akrotiri is an extraordinary prehistoric settlement that was buried beneath volcanic material and preserved for centuries. Today, visitors can walk through the remains of an ancient city and discover a completely different side of Santorini.
A Different Side of Santorini
Akrotiri is perfect for travellers who want to experience more than the island’s famous views and beaches.
History, archaeology and the dramatic volcanic landscape come together to create an experience that is both educational and memorable.
The site is also connected with theories about the legendary lost city of Atlantis, although this remains a theory rather than an established historical fact.
