Thira Trip Overview
Α trip back in time
Pyrgos is a medieval ornament and dominates a hill overlooking Santorini from side to side, from Santorini to Oia. It is a casteli still preserving the traits of the Venetian Empire, sowed with churches and ruins, breathing a strong sense of power and prosperity.
Vothonas
Narrow paths and steps that deserve to be walked and ascended run through the spine of the village. A picturesque traditional settlement that differs though from other villages of Santorini. For instance, it has no view, neither the prestige of the Fira or Oia. It has, though, a distinct character, fully attached to the natural surrounding and the beds of rock of the Thira land.
Wine Museum
It is the sole underground Wine Museum in Greece, being 8 metres below ground. It is shaped like a labyrinth and stretches for 300 metres, presenting the history of wine and the daily life of the Santorini’s vine dresser since 1660.
