Santorini Greece & the Fira to Oia hike


As my travel blog is about tips on where to visit & saving money doing so.....i read this hike is listed at $140.00 PP in small groups. My fellow travelers, you can do this on your own for 2 Euros ( bus fare on the return to your starting point ) All i ask is to wear proper footwear ( you will see why with my photos) bring water, sunscreen & a hat

 

The cobblestone part of the route


Some of the sights you will see on your journey

We are basically walking in a U Shape .....up & down between the 2 towns

Some challenging parts of the hike 




From above you can see the white washed structures as we make our way

Near the end
