Santorini, Greece

 

Many people think of Santorini as a honeymoon destination filled with starry-eyed newlyweds and wedding proposals around every corner.  However, Santorini is actually an amazing destination for a family vacation and is filled with fun activities to do with your kids.  There is no need for electronics to keep your kids entertained and never once did my kids say they were bored.  Being in Santorini is like walking into a postcard and this concept is not lost on kids.

DAY 1

Today is all about exploring Oia. 

BYZANTINE CASTLE RUINS

Spend the rest of your morning getting lost in the maze of streets of Oia.  Peek into little shops and small art studios.  Have breakfast in a tiny café and enjoy some delicious Greek coffee!  There are hundreds of steps in Oia, so be prepared to get a good workout.
