The blue & white houses on the volcanic cliffs of Santorini's village of Oia are perhaps the most iconic scene in the Greek Isles. Below the cliffs are multi-colored beaches, warm water, and the relaxing atmosphere of the Aegean Sea. A cable car takes you from the old port to the town of Fira, where you can try your hand at cooking in an authentic Greek kitchen with the guidance of local chefs. Avid explorers might choose to visit the prehistoric Akrotiri Archaeological Site where an advanced & cultured society was buried by one of the most devastating volcanic eruptions in history. On the bright side, wine connoisseurs will delight in the locally grown varieties including the popular Agiorgitiko and Xinomavro varieties & the unique pine-infused Retsina.
