What to expect
Your tour begins in the charming northern village of Oia — a world-famous destination known for its cave houses, blue-domed churches, and breathtaking views over the caldera. Capture postcard-worthy photos and stroll through narrow marble-paved alleys.
Firostefani
Next, stop in Firostefani to admire the iconic Blue Dome Church — one of Santorini’s most photographed sites — with stunning views over the volcano and the sea.
Choose between two beautifully preserved villages: - PYRGOS, a former medieval capital, located at the base of Mount Profitis Ilias, offering panoramic views and remnants of Venetian influence. Head up to the highest point of the island (600 meters/2,000 feet above sea level) to visit the Monastery of Profitis Ilias. Soak in unmatched panoramic views of Santorini and the neighboring islands. - MEGALOCHORI, a peaceful and authentic village, known for its neoclassical mansions, hidden courtyards, and pirate-era architecture. Stroll through quiet alleys, admire traditional homes, and soak in the charm of old Santorini — far from the crowds.
Step back in time with a visit to the prehistoric city of Akrotiri — often referred to as the “Pompeii of the Aegean.” This well-preserved ancient settlement reveals the sophistication of Minoan civilization.
Red Beach
(Optional Photo Stop) Admire the dramatic crimson cliffs and surreal volcanic landscape of the Red Beach. A quick stop here offers unique photo opportunities.
Black Beach (Perivolos or Kamari) Unwind by the sea at one of Santorini’s expansive black sand beaches. Take a break for a refreshing swim or enjoy lunch at a local beachfront taverna, famous for fresh seafood.
Local Winery (Optional) Enhance your experience with a visit to a local winery. Enjoy a guided wine tasting and learn about Santorini’s unique volcanic terroir from the experts. Your driver can recommend a winery based on your preferences.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
