Santorini, like most of the Cycladic Island, has a rich history. Santorini is plenty of archaeological sites which proves the first man presence on the island back to the Neolithic Period. Santorini history had the same evolution that in the other islands of the Cyclades. An important civilization seems to have existed near Akrotiri, at the south of the island, next to the famous Red beach, dating back to 3600 BC. It was proved that Akrotiri was a Minoan city, like those found in Crete.

Folegandros is the southest of western Cyclades. Lies in Aegean Sea, next to Milos and Sikinos. Its history gets lost along the centuries and Folegandros followed during different eras the fate of the rest cycladic islands. It's name was given after Folegandros, Minos son. Ancients used to call it "Sidira" (irony) due to its hard ground. Walking from Karavostasi, the harbour, to Hora, Folegandros unfolds its charm. Hora, the capital of the island, is a small jewel of Aegean Sea, tied up with beautiful churches, wide paved paths, white houses and friendly people.

Antiparos is a beautiful, bright island full of colorful patches, right in the middle of the Aegean Sea. A place with a great history! Monuments and symbols reveal a unique culture. The creators of the Cycladic civilization lived here. In the middle of the island, upon a hill, you will find one of the greatest and oldest cave of the world. Well preserved, it offers its visitors many surprises. The island of Antiparos is becoming well known between 17th and 19th century, when foreign travelers visit it and then publish their impressions and sketches of the cave and the rest archaeological sites.
