First, we visit Prophet Elias Monastery where the view is breathtaking. The picturesque village of Pyrgos is close by for you to capture some magnificent photos. After the bus tour of Santorini we will proceed to the port, where you’ll embark for a boat trip to the volcano. With a 1.5 hour stop there is enough time to walk to the crater and observe the smoke with traces of sulfur that is emitted from a number of spots. Elsewhere you’ll find that the ground and stones are too hot to touch. Leaving the volcano behind, the boat now sails to the Hot Springs, where you can swim in the green sulfur waters. From there the boat will sail to the nearby island of Thirassia. During the trip you shall be able to see the two separate islands which make up the volcano.
