Step Back in Time
Our trip begins from Papafragas or the 'volcanic swimming pool' where we will wonder for a while at this picturesque location, where you can look down into the clear turquoise waters.Milos played a crucial part in the pre-history of the Cyclades and specifically Phylakopi that is our next stop. We will introduce you this prehistoric position which remained an active settlement until 1000 BC. A short drive from Phylakopi takes us to the famous Sarakiniko , the unique 'Lunar Landscape'. The beautiful spot is one of the island's many geological wonders and perhaps one of the most photographed places in Cyclades! We will take a wall down the inlet so you can experience this one of a kind beach and take some photos.From there we will travel the road along the northern coast towards the picturesque Plaka and its cobbled streets and alleys. In the capital of Milos you will have the time to admire its traditional architecture and its stunning view of the sea from the veranda of Panagia Korfiatissa.The next stop is at the outskirts of Trypiti, where the Catacombs lay, a sacred place for Early Christianity, a Necropolis, and a resting place of estimated 2500 souls. Close to the Catacombs is the marble Roman Amphitheater, recently restored, which you can admire from a higher level that stands above it. There are still seven entire seat rows with a lovely view of the bay. Not far from this location, the site of the discovery of Venus de Milo in 1820 (now residing in the Louvre museum in Paris).
