Akrotiri archaeological site
Akrotiri, Greece
Akrotiri reveals Santorini as a sophisticated Bronze Age settlement rather than simply a spectacular view. Beneath a protective roof, streets and multi-storey buildings show the organisation of the town before the volcanic eruption buried it. Choose a guided visit if you want the architecture and daily life explained in depth, then pair it with the Museum of Prehistoric Thera in Fira. The two visits complement one another, connecting the excavated town with its objects and wall paintings.
