TOUR DESCRIPTION

Discover the marvels that make up one of the most charming Greek islands on this private full-day Santorini sightseeing tour.

Your tour begins with a visit to the island’s half-submerged caldera—a picture-perfect setting. Strike a pose against the backdrop of the deep-blue Aegean Sea and take some memorable photos as your guide tells you about Santorini’s volcanic history.

Continue to the iconic village of Oia—renowned for its whitewashed houses and idyllic sunset. Take a stroll around the streets and enjoy some free time to explore the village.

For an insight into Santorini’s sacred culture, venture up to the island’s highest point, where the Prophet Elias Monastery is perched, at nearly 2,000 feet (565 m) above sea level.

Hear monks chant and admire the far-reaching vistas that span the entire region before sampling dessert wine and extra virgin olive oil made onsite.

Next, venture around the island’s countryside and enjoy local stops away from the tourist crowds -hand-picked by your private guide.

Have the opportunity to visit a traditional winery, where you can learn about the production of the local Assyrtiko wine and even stop at a local recommended restaurant to enjoy an optional meal of plates that Santorini is famous for.

Round off your day on the Aegean waters with a visit to Kamari or Perissa, the longest black-sand beaches on the island covered with black volcanic sand, before returning to your Hotel or Cruise ship.
