Itinerario
La scoperta della città preistorica di Akrotiri ti stupirà! Una delle città più avanzate del mondo antico fu distrutta e persa sotto uno spesso strato di cenere vulcanica per millenni a causa dell'eruzione vulcanica del 1613 a.C. Quell'eruzione vulcanica ha cambiato il mondo antico e in qualche modo ha ispirato un mito molto noto... Atlantide! Insieme a una guida turistica abilitata all'archeologia, camminerai per gli stretti vicoli della città preistorica dove ti renderai conto dell'importanza di quell'antica cultura ancora oggi! Ma soprattutto imparerai a conoscere l'inizio del Mito dedicato alla città perduta di Atlantide!

Ioannis was extremely knowledgeable and interesting! I highly recommend booking with him and not just walkthrough on your own. I loved everything I learned, and can't wait to return in the future when they start digging other sites, or Ioannis proves his thesis. Helpful hint, book an afternoon tour, which Ioannis said is a better time due to less crowds. Because the site is covered, it is not too hot inside, thank goodness! A bonus, there are very cute doggies to pet.
We thoroughly enjoyed having Ioannis guide us through the Archaeological site. He was knowledgable and passionate and did a wonderful job of giving both an overview for context and explaining the details. We were lucky to have the site mainly to ourselves in the early afternoon, and because it is completely covered, sun wasn't an issue. He mentioned that it tends to be much busier in the mornings. Because he is one of the archeologists who has worked on the site, he was able to give an insider perspective and to explain why the site hasn't been fully excavated. It was nice to be able to support a working archeologist through booking this tour!
Our guide Giannis was knowledgeable and engaging. He easily captured the attention of our 3 boys (6, 9 and 12), explained in relatable terms, was patient and answered their many questions.
When we first got to the gate we looked for our guide, but he didn't have a sign or any identifying information to let us know it was him. Our entry to the site was not included in the costly price of the short informational we received. While the archeologist was knowledgeable, my friend and I were rushed through the sight, barely having time to question anything, no time to look at anything but what he rushed us through. We originally had a time for 12:30, but our guide changed it to 2:30, while the site closed at 3:30. We had absolutely no time to look around at a reasonable pace. We were rushed out due to closing, leaving us no time to look at the gift shop, either. Very disappointing, very expensive for what we received.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. I would like to clarify a few points for future guests. As clearly stated in the tour description on Viator, entrance tickets to the archaeological site are not included in the tour price. This information is provided before booking, and none of my previous guests have expressed confusion regarding this policy. Regarding the tour timing, the starting time was adjusted in advance and communicated accordingly. The tour was conducted within the available visiting hours of the archaeological site. My goal is always to provide guests with a comprehensive archaeological interpretation of Akrotiri, highlighting its most significant features while allowing time for questions and discussion. I am pleased that you found the archaeological information valuable and recognized my expertise as an archaeologist. However, I regret that you felt rushed during your visit. I strive to offer every guest an engaging and memorable experience, as reflected in the many positive reviews I have received from previous visitors. I appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as I continue to improve the experience for future guests. Kind regards, Your guide Giannis
Giannis is extremely knowledgeable and gave us a well informed, energetically entertaining tour through Akrotiri’s archaeological insights. Highly recommend!
We had a great tour with Mircina! She was very knowledgeable and took great care in highlighting key details. Don’t hesitate to book and ask for her!
Our guided tour of Akrotiri was a huge highlight of our trip, and I cannot praise Ioannis enough. He was such an amazing guide, it was so cool to have someone leading us who actually worked on the dig. He was so informative, and his presentation was fascinating. We cannot thank him enough and I would recommend him to everyone considering it?
Awesome tour, 5 stars! Would recommend Giannis
This was one of the most fascinating tours we did on our trip to Greece. I highly recommend Giannis as he is so knowledgeable and we learned so much about the history of Akrotiri and Santorini. You should follow this visit with a trip to the Museum of Prehistoric Thira to see the frescoes and objects they recovered from the site.
This was the best money we spent in all of Santorini. Ioannis was a magnificent tour guide who with all his archeological experience, including having worked at the site, was an amazing story teller and he brought the site to life. Would highly recommend!
