Hop on an amazing bus tour around the island and jump at the opportunity to explore the most characteristic attractions and places of Santorini in one day! You will meander around its picturesque settlements where you’ll come across the typical cave houses, traditional whitewashed buildings, blue-domed churches, Venetian castles, and quaint alleys.

You will have the chance to walk through the well-preserved Akrotiri Excavations and marvel at the archaeological findings up close, before visiting the traditional village of Emporio and wandering around its paths. Of course, you’ll also spend time at the must-see volcanic beaches of the island. You can swim and relax at the iconic Black Sand Beach of Perissa and then have lunch at a traditional tavern in the coastal village, where you can savor local specialties. Next, a stop at Profitis Ilias Mountain, the highest peak of Santorini, will generously offer you stunning views of the whole island.

The experience wouldn’t be complete without a wine tasting in one of the numerous wineries on the island. Santorini is popular for its renowned wine varieties, which owe their quality to the rich volcanic soil, so it is an activity that shouldn’t be missed! The tour will finish with the best sunset view in the picturesque village of Oia!

Notes
  • Tour starts at 10:30 am from Fira, and finishes after sunset.
Excavations of Akrotiri

The prehistoric settlement in Akrotiri is an archaeological site of great importance as it is considered a significant discovery. The fact that the site managed to stay well-preserved after the several volcanic eruptions that occurred on the island is itself extraordinary and it makes the place totally worth exploring up close.

Emporio Village

Emporio is the largest settlement of Santorini, a peaceful traditional village that boasts edifices of Cycladic architecture, old churches, wonderful windmills, and one of the five fortified castles on the island. Walk around its narrow alleys that resemble a labyrinth and admire cave houses, tiny balconies, adorable yards, and domes. (40 minutes)

Perissa Beach

Perissa is a cosmopolitan beach resort that constitutes a part of the lengthy Black Sand Beach. Here you’ll have plenty of time to relax by the sea and enjoy this extraordinary beach. You can swim in refreshing crystal clear waters and have a go at a variety of watersports. The seaside Perissa village has an abundance of shops, cafes, beach bars, and traditional restaurants where you can taste the local cuisine. ( 2.5 hours)

Profitis Ilias Mountain

Being the highest point of the island, Profitis Ilias Mountain offers sublime panoramic views in every direction. Gaze at vast vineyards and plains, the coastline of Santorini as well as the spectacular volcano in the Aegean Sea and the nearby islands. From this spot, you can take fantastic photos of the entire island and relish it from a totally different point of view. (20 minutes)

Santorini Winery

A visit to one of Santorini’s wineries is a must. It includes wine tasting in a private area. Learn about the process and history of winemaking in Santorini. Get to try three of the best local varieties and indulge in a fine wine-tasting experience in spectacular surroundings.

Oia ‒ Sunset

The gem of the island is the picturesque Oia village which is known for its incomparable sunset and admirable architecture. Pastel-colored houses, blue-domed churches, wondrous cafes, and restaurants are built on the staggering caldera cliffs and create an idyllic setting. The world-famous sunset, which can be witnessed from the debris of the Venetian castle, highlights the romantic atmosphere.

Overrated sunset

Excellent tour, but logistically in need of some tweaking especially when 4 cruise ships are in town and the cable car queue is about 90 minutes long. Pick up point not clearly designated, but helpful locals are a bonus. Excellent driver and tour guide, wonderful lunch in the beach taverna etc. Sunset is OK but not up to the hype, and EVERYONE is there.

Extensive and very informative tour covering practically all of the island. Local tour guide was very knowledgeable in local history, culture and geography. A great way to see the island beyond the caldera.
