Santorini Private Tour Options
Delve deep into the local culture and history of Santorini on a private tour with an expert English-speaking guide. When making your reservation, you'll have the choice of two tour options: both include transport by minibus and last between 3.5 and 4 hours:
Pyrgos, Firostefani, Imerovigli & Oia
This is the ideal tour for visitors wanting to immerse themselves in the history of Santorini while exploring the picturesque town of Pyrgos.
Discover the Monastery of the Prophet Elias, located on the highest point of the isle of Santorini, where you'll have the opportunity to take photos of the incredible panoramic views from this vantage point. You can also choose to visit a local winery and indulge in a tasting of the island's traditional wine, said to have been a gift from the Greek god of wine, Dionysus.
You'll be taken to visit the beautiful villages of Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia. You'll be captivated by the sight of the iconic whitewashed houses clustered on the hillsides, their bright blue roofs reflecting the intense colour of the sea they overlook. There will be free time here to enjoy a coffee or do some shopping while taking in the views.
At the end of your tour, you'll be dropped back off at your hotel or at the Fira cable car station, as you prefer.
Pyrgos, Megalochori, Akrotiri & Caldera
As well as exploring Pyrgos, the Monastery of the Prophet Elias and the traditional Santorini winery as on the above tour, you'll be taken to Megalochori and Akrotiri where you'll visit an archaeological site with ruins dating back to 1650 BC.
Stroll through the labyrinthine streets and absorb their more than 4000 years of history, making a stop to photograph the unforgettable caldera from Akrotiri, marvelling at the view of the volcanoes in the distance. You'll then be taken back to your hotel or Fira.
Hotel pick up
The guide will pick you up from your hotel (provided it is centrally located) or from the Fira cable car station. Please bear in mind that if you begin your tour from your hotel, the pick up time will be included within your tour time.
