Akrotiri: Guided Horseback Riding Day Trip to a Beach
1.Akrotiri: Guided Horseback Riding Day Trip to a Beach
Ride a well-trained horse from Akrotiri through vineyards, local trails, lava rock, and on to Vlychada Beach. English and Greek-speaking guides such as Thanasis, Giota, and Minas provide basic instruction, lead nervous riders when needed, and take beach photos. The advertised ride lasts one hour, with longer options or extended outings sometimes available.

“It was an extraordinary experience! Giota took very good care of us before and upon arrival and arranged a smooth transfer from our hotel. She also explained thoroughly some basic horse riding skills to get us prepared for the ride. Then, two professional guides led us through the ride attentively, making us feel very safe. We stopped by the beach for a while for some photos. The whole experience is really great, and I would definitely recommend adding this activity to your itinerary in Santorini!”
