But it is the bright white houses of the villages of Santorini.<span id=\"more-807\"><\/span><\/p><p>As the Harmony G moves closer to docking it starts to become obvious this going to be a special place. The cliffs of the caldera dominate the view, with very little vegetation on this side and the variety of colours of geology from the many eruptions of the past.<\/p><p>Arriving at the dock it\u2019s very quiet at the moment with no other boats in as yet. We\u2019re given a choice, \u00a0ride a donkey or walk up the cliff path or take the cable car for \u20ac6 per person each way. Clearly we took the cable car. From here you get the amazing first views of the caldera.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3bc4271 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"3bc4271\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;masonry&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:15,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;overlay_description&quot;:&quot;caption&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:2,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/holiday.chrisapps.com\/europe2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/2017-06-11-08-38-50.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"3bc4271\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Santorini dock\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjU2OCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2hvbGlkYXkuY2hyaXNhcHBzLmNvbVwvZXVyb3BlMjAxN1wvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMjZcLzAxXC8yMDE3LTA2LTExLTA4LTM4LTUwLndlYnAiLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiIzYmM0MjcxIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/holiday.chrisapps.com\/europe2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/2017-06-11-08-38-50.webp\" data-width=\"1080\" data-height=\"608\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSantorini dock\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/holiday.chrisapps.com\/europe2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/2017-06-11-08-46-33.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"3bc4271\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Looking down into the caldera with our boat in the background\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjU2OSwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2hvbGlkYXkuY2hyaXNhcHBzLmNvbVwvZXVyb3BlMjAxN1wvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMjZcLzAxXC8yMDE3LTA2LTExLTA4LTQ2LTMzLndlYnAiLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiIzYmM0MjcxIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/holiday.chrisapps.com\/europe2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/2017-06-11-08-46-33.webp\" data-width=\"1080\" data-height=\"608\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLooking down into the caldera with our boat in the background\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-40173c03 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"40173c03\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once at the top you are going to need sunglasses, the building are so white it\u2019s difficult to look at anything without sunnies.

This where the blue dome houses are that you see in all the tour guides and travel shows. Although making for great photos it\u2019s a little disappointing as there is only 3 or 4 of these domes. Dea decided to stay at the drop off point with one of the other ladies while I went off and walk to the very northern tip of the island.

We\u2019ve got about 2 hours to ourselves. This is where I knew Dea was going to struggle. Stella was concerned as well, she showed us an easier route back to the cable car. It was still uphill all the way if not as steep as the original. After many stops including lunch and coffee and cake we made it back to the cable car with plenty of time left. Spent about half hour at the cafe before catching the cable car down to meet our tender at 4.<\/p><p>Back on the boat and a seafood dinner tonight. Early to bed.<\/p><p>I\u2019m beginning to think we might coming home after the Greek tour as Dea\u2019s back is getting worse and she is in a great deal of pain.
