Head to the cable car station, where you'll meet with a fun guide, and wait for a convenient pickup and transfer to your first point of interest, the island summit of Profitis Ilias. This colossal mountain's highest point reaches near 1,861 feet above sea level and offers sweeping views from the monastery that sits at the top of the summit. After spending 15 minutes capturing postcard worthy panoramic views of the island's skyline and lush landscapes with your camera, your tour will take you to spend 45 minutes of free time on the iconic black sands of Kamari Beach, Santorini's longest pebbled beach that offers great views of Poseidon's arch and other mountainscapes. Spend time wading in the crystalline waters of the Aegean Sea, catch some rays or stop to shop or hang out at a nearby beach bar for a cup of Greek coffee.

Next, make your way to the famous village of Oia, where your guide will give you a brief orientation of Santorini's northernmost village before you enjoy free time. Take in the breathtaking views of the skyline and Venetian castle and admire the pumice stone built cave homes as you learn about Greek traditions, Santorini wine production, and the origins of the island's formation during your sightseeing tour. Wrap up that last leg of your tour with a 15 minute stop at the Church of Firostefani, the famed blue domed church with whitewashed walls. Here, you'll get a chance to capture Insta-worthy shots of the stunning views of five islands while learning about the history of the island and its agricultural practices before returning to your port.

From taking an easy pathway to explore an ancient coastal village by foot to catching panoramic views from a mountain top, this tour is a culture connoisseur's dream. Book this exciting excursion today and get ready to enjoy a relaxing time in Santorini!

Wonderful day spent in Santorini
November 10, 2022
This excursion lived up to it’s reviews! We had no trouble getting up to our meeting point and the views from the funicular were breathtaking! Our guide moved us along so we saw all the sites and left time for us to do some shopping and have lunch in Oia. Our guide recommended Pelekanos for lunch and we enjoyed it very much. We will definitely recommend this trip to our friends.

Santorini, with it's blue and white buildings, was as beautiful as advertised. Built on a cliff, the views were exceptional. It is more commercialized than any of the other tours.

The tour was everything we had hoped for. The lady tour guide was awesome. She spoke very good English and provided us with great information about Santorini’s culture and history. We were alloted adequate time at different stops to leisurely walk around the beautiful places. And we were delivered back in sufficient time to get back to our ship. Thank you. Would recommend it to others.

Amazing experience
October 19, 2022
Tour was fantastic but getting to the top of Oia was a very long wait in line for the cable car. Thought we missed the tour but Marco waited for us! He was a great tour guide and drove right to the Panoramic view of Santorini and we beat the tour buses etc. He was very informative and gave us lots of info about Santorini. He was very accommodating and he definitely went above and beyond waiting for us. Thank you Marco!

Our tour guide was a very nice young man named Panos. He was flexible and allowed people to tour on their own or stay with him. He took us to many of the well known attractions as well as other lesser known areas of beauty.
