On a 6-hour Santorini Private Sightseeing Tour, you may tailor your visit to one of the most stunning islands in the world while getting a hassle-free overview of the Greek island. Travel between island sites including Red Beach, the Monastery of Profitis Ilias, and Oia, home of the renowned blue-domed churches, with the help of your knowledgeable local guide. With several departure times and free hotel pickup and drop-off, this service is ideal for both cruise passengers and hotel guests.
This tour includes pick up & drop off from most hotels in Santorini, or the closest accessible point, as well as the top of the cable car for cruise ship visitors.
Most travelers can participate. However, this tour involves some walking—there are some places that can only be reached on foot—as well as some hills and inclines. Participants should have a moderate physical fitness level; however, we always find the best alternative solutions to accommodate each traveler’s needs.
The tour can be cancelled up to 24 hours before the activity starts. If you cancel after this time or do not show up, you will not be refunded.
Begin your private tour in Santorini with a pickup from your hotel or the closest accessible place, and then spend the day visiting the most famous island in the world with an expert local driver/guide
Visit the renowned Oia in the north of the island first. Oia is a must-see destination in Europe and one of the most photographed locations due to its charming blue-domed churches and spectacular panoramic views.
Drive across rocky hills and sparse grassland as you approach the ancient city of Megalochori in the island’s center. Take pictures of the stunning tiered bell towers as you stroll the winding paths. This village is made up of hundreds of modest whitish cottages with delicate architecture, lovely blue-domed churches, and underground cave dwellings. Learn about local culture and lifestyle in this picturesque and non-touristic setting.
Then, visit Santorini’s most well-known beach, Red Beach, a rare natural phenomenon, and take magnificent pictures of the reddish cliffs and volcanic surroundings.
Approach the Lighthouse from the southwest. It was constructed in 1892, is one of the best examples of its kind in the Cycladic Islands, and is a great place to watch the sun set.
Next, arrive at the southernmost end of the island after a ten-minute drive and unwind on Perivolos’ black beach, which has wonderful beachside restaurants and crystal blue waves. We can spend an hour relaxing here, so you can go swimming or eat lunch (not included) by the shore.
Lastly, travel across a vineyard-covered landscape to the island’s highest point, the monastery of Prophet Elias, which rises 565 meters above sea level. Take in the serene surroundings and the magnificent views of the entire island.
Your private tour of Santorini will come to a close with a drop-off at the location where we picked you up after an amazing experience.
Our experience with this tour company exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, the communication was outstanding, with every question answered quickly and plenty of helpful advice to make our day in Santorini as smooth as possible.
