Your journey begins based on your selection: with pickup from Athinios Port, or without pickup from the Old Port of Fira.
The first stop is the volcano, where you’ll have 1.5 hours to hike its rugged trails and explore its unique landscape. A 5€ entrance fee is required to access the volcano. Your tour escort will guide you along the paths, sharing fascinating stories about its history and eruptions. Wear sturdy shoes and bring water for this moderate hike, which rewards you with stunning panoramic views at the summit.

A 5€ entrance fee is required to access the volcano. Wear comfortable shoes, bring a sun hat, and carry water to stay hydrated during the hike.

Here, you’ll have 30 minutes to experience the rejuvenating thermal waters, celebrated for their rich volcanic minerals and therapeutic properties.

5.00We enjoyed this excursion that took us to hike the volcano, swim in the hot springs, and visiting Thirassia. We visited in early October so it wasn’t too hot for the hike. The water was a little cold when we jumped in, but we got used to it quickly. The hot springs weren’t that hot but it was still a cool experience. We had gyros for lunch on Thirassia before heading back.
Not bad, wont do again

3.00Overall, it was only okay. Not great, not horrable. It all started with checking in. Our tender dropped us off very early, so I went to check in. The lady behind the desk resonated a "i really dont wanna be here" energy as well as being short and quite rude to me telling me to come back at 9:45am to check in. Upon checking in later, we were told to wait in a line that really turned into a giant pile of people that the staff did nothing to control. We boarded the boat and all of our boat staff was fantastic. They helped my wife get on and get off with my 1 year old who sometimes was sleeping. They were polite when we talked to them. The locations were pretty. But we has some issues as well. Up first was the Volcano. It was very pretty but was mostly a walking trail with very loose lava stone gravel. Felt like there wasn't much there for the 5 euro entrance fee. Secondly was the hot springs swim. This is where we had the biggest issue. We were not told that the swim would be from the boat, so my wife and I did not wear our suits onto the boat because we thought there would be somewhere to change like all of the other hot springs we have been to and not wanting to hike up a volcano in a swim suit. Also with the swim, we only had 30 minutes to swim, and this included the get in and get out process. Normally this would be fine but once I got in, we had to swim about 50 meters to the spring. By the time I was able to get in and swim over, they blew the horn saying it was time to come back. It would have been nice having 45 mins or an hour there. Lastly was the town of Theresa. We loved this area. The reatraunt we ate at was reasonable and the food was good. We took our 1 year old along the coast and let her play in the water. On our way back we took the long way back past Oia and Fira, not unpleasant, but made our ride back to the island approximately an hour and 20 mins. It was unexpected. Overall, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't somthing I would do again.
Great all around...

5.00Fantastic trip - definitely book but read the following tips! Lovely overall trip. Lots of lovely time on the sea and on the boat. Really fantastic value for money. 1) Wear a dark swimsuit 2) Bring a towel and wear sports clothes over the top that dry quickly 3) Wear water shoes - there are rocks under the water at the hot springs, watch out as it shallows! 4) Bring a water bottle 5) The trip is still worth while even if you don't want to swim - I am a nervous swimmer but they provide a float and once you're in, it was fine. A ladder was provided - you don't have to jump 6) Bring a snorkel goggle for the free time to explore the underwater world in your free time We took the public bus and cable car (land slide on the path), it is €10 euros per person, cash and card, but much like everywhere else, cash is preferred Overall a lovely day and worth while going!
