Island Tour from Batsi to Andros Town
Activity Description
We recommend this tour for those who are short of time and want to get a great taste of Andros.
A magnificent half-day tour, starting from Batsi Town and crossing the inland, from the western to the northern part and then to the East. See the highlights of this wonderful island, from stunning natural landscapes and important sights to picturesque villages. Learn about the history, the culture, and the local tradition.
The tour passes through the traditional villages of Katakoilos, the mountainous and verdant Arni, Vourkoti. Our first stop is Apoikia, the famous seamen’s village, where Sariza spring is located. The bus tour continues through the settlements of Ipsilou and Strabourgies to reach the most well-known refreshing stop on the island- Menites Springs!
The next stop is the Capital Town Chora. The heart of the town is a charm! Since cars are not allowed, follow your guide to the picturesque old city of Andros, Chora, which maintains its original medieval road layout, while the architecture is an excellent example of a combination of Byzantine, Venetian and neoclassical styles. Enough free time to visit the Museums and have lunch.
On our way back from this half-day sightseeing tour we pay a visit to the Olive Oil Museum, a little treasure on the island of Andros! It is the best-preserved animal-powered old olive mill on the island. The mill was restored and transformed into a museum. The visit is guided by its passionate owner, who will guide and initiate you to the old traditional techniques of olive oil production. An experience to remember!
The Andros Half-Day Sightseeing Tour gives you the opportunity to get the most out of your visit to Andros and familiarize yourself with the area. The driver guide will help you make unique and priceless memories to bring back home!
