Our Santorini shore excursion tour generally follows a standard itinerary but keep in mind that it is a private tour so you can tailor the trip itinerary to suit your needs.

Oia Town

The tour begins with a journey to Oia, where you can take in the scenic views of nearby islands and the Aegean Sea. Once you reach the top of the hill where Oia is located, you can marvel at the view of the caldera before exploring the narrow streets with whitewashed buildings.

Firostefani

Afterward, we’ll continue along to the village of Imerovigli, where a rock named Skaros served as a lookout for pirates. Next, you can get your postcard-perfect photo of the Blue Dome Church in Firostefani.

Prophet Ilias

From there, you make your way up Santorini’s tallest mountain to the Prophet Ilias monastery that sits 2,000 feet above sea level. Before you enter the Greek Christian monastery, take a moment to appreciate the vistas around you, especially below where Santorini meets the deep blue sea.

Pyrgos or Megalochori

Next, you can visit the old capital, Pyrgos, and walk along the narrow streets until you reach the Venetian castle.

Ventesanos Winery

After this, you can take a moment to relax and learn about the secrets of winemaking at the Venetsanos winery while sipping on local wines.

Perivolos Black Sand Beach

Lastly, you can enjoy the stunning black beach of Perivolos along the southern coast. While you’re there, your guide can provide recommendations for the best restaurants for you to have an optional lunch while you take in the views.

With that, your Santorini half-day private tour ends. Your guide will drop you off at your hotel or elsewhere at a port, airport or the cable car terminal in Fira.

Had a unique experience with our tour guide Keven. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great tour in Santorini. She was knowledgeable, flexible and accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend the tour ‘Santorini Shore Excursion Private Tour’.

Awesome!! Santorini Shore Excursion Tour

Couple Traveller

We really enjoyed this half-day tour in Santorini. Katerina was our guide and she was just wonderful, pleasant and very nice person. Really informative, fun, great music played on the bus at the end of the tour. Free water, a lot of time at each stop and a lot of fun. Can’t recommend these guys enough – a great day and by no means could we see so much if we tried to do it ourselves. We stayed at the Oia and it was only a 4-minute walk from the hotel which was perfect. Thanks, we liked it, guys! Highly recommend Katerina and Panagiotis for private tours in Santorini.

Private 5-hour Santorini tour for families

Couple Traveller

This was a great tour! Our guide John was very knowledgeable and was always pointing out great photo opportunities and giving a lot of information about Santorini and local life. The minivan was very comfortable. We also loved that it had USB plugins to charge your phone.
