If you do not like walking and do not dare to take the donkey, you can take a cable car towards Fira (4 €) from the port. It is much easier and more economical, and in four minutes you will be in the center of the town.
As they say, and not to end up with the historic tradition of donkeys, some of the revenue from the cable car is for the owners of the donkeys. What we strongly recommend is to go on foot all the way down to the port from Fira (580 steps), because the sights along the way are quite spectacular.
The cable car at the port of Fira is located at the end of the port, it is very easy to locate because the port is very small. The cable car is located in the uppermost part in the city, close to the seafront whose views overlooking the caldera. Anyway, there are signs indicating where both the descent of 580 steps and the location of the cable bar are.
Cable car is opened from 07:00 until 22:00 (21:00 in winter)
