Emorio kastelli
One of the most beautiful castelia of Santorini is Emporio, also known as Nimborios. This village is located 12 km from Fira. According to the 2011 census, the community of Emporio has 3.085 permanent inhabitants. The best preserved castle of Santorini is located here, with houses built one next to the other, in such a way that their walls simultaneously create the wall of the castle. The interior of this fortified settlement is full of curves. Inside the castle is the church of Palia Panagia or Panagia Mesani with the impressive steeple, the old woodcarving temple and the pebbled floor. Among other attractions, Emporio boasts the old Goulas Castle and some churches, such as Saint Nicholas Marmaritis.

Useful info
During this difficult time for humanity, due to the pandemic of the new coronavirus, our company take measures to protect the lives of all visitors right away. All our vehicles are sanitized (interiors and door handles) before and after each tour. Hotel pickup and drop-off by an experienced tour guide is included. As far as it concerns the cruise- ship travelers, the meeting point will be at the central entrance of the cable car. Our driver-guide will be at the meeting point 30 minutes before our arranged meeting. Our private excursions start the moment you meet the tour guide and not the time of the arranged meeting because sometimes the cruise- ships may delay.
