What To Expect

Profitis Ilias

The tour begins with the visit of the highest spot of the island (567 meters) located between Pyrgos and Kamari. The Mountain's name, Profitis Ilias (Prophet Elijah), is coming from the Monastery with the same name on its peak. From this vantage point, you will enjoy a striking view of the entire island, from the patchwork agricultural plains to the hilltop village of Oia. The Monastery was built in 1712 and it always had a very important role for the life of Santorini during the centuries especially as an active intellectual and patriotic influence.

Pyrgos

Next stop the picturesque village of Pyrgos, built on the top of a hill, used to be until the early 1800 the capital of the island. The village is composed by traditional houses built around the Venetian Castle and small streets following the shape of the hill. The village has many churches, around 33and it is the perfect example to admire a typical example of Cycladic Architecture: climbing from the square up to the castle of Pyrgos the stone houses crowd more densely together and the labyrinth of narrow vaulted lanes becomes more tortuous. You will hane enough time to walk around the village.

    Santorini is very crowded, as expected. The half day tour enabled us to see more than we expected in limited time, and get away from the crowds some. Our guide, Vasilis, "Billy", was wonderful. We can't say enough about how great he was. He would have given us more time at each place, but accommodated our need to get back to our ship on time. We were able to walk around Oia, and make stops in Meroviglia, Pyrgos, and Firastefani before returning to Fira and our ship. We feel very fortunate to have chosen Golden Key and have Billy as our guide, as we didn't know what to expect when making the reservation. Our only regret is we were running low on euros, and weren't able to leave as large a tip as we would have liked. We definitely recommend Golden Key, and especially Billy.

  • Great tour
