Tour Options
Itinerary
Visit Imerovigli, the highest village on the caldera, to enjoy breathtaking volcano views and one of Santorini’s most spectacular photo stops.
Discover the famous town of Oia, nestled in the hillsides. Oia is unique in every way with iconic blue domed churches, scenic pathways, stunning views of the caldera and the most spectacular sunset.
Admire the panoramic view of the island at highest spot of it - at the mountain of Prophet Ilias -2.000 feet (600 meters) above sea level.
Visit the unique Red Beach and get a glimpse of the red volcanic rocks. These rocks were created by geological formation processes that are still active.
Explore the village of Megalochori, which has been characterized as one of the most picturesque and traditional villages of the island. Historical mansions, restored houses and pirate hideaways are the top preserved features of this settlement.
Akrotiri Archaeological Site is one of the most significant prehistoric settlements of the Aegean. Akrotiri had once been a major city before it was covered in ash by volcanic eruptions. Luckily, the ash has preserved structures and their contents, allowing us to admire this wonder of antiquity.
Take the chance to swim at the dazzling crystal clear waters of the famous Black Beach (also known as Perivolos or Perissa). This seaside area actually forms the tip of the long black sand beach of Perivolos and is, without a doubt, the busiest and most remarkable beach of Santorini. Enjoy the spectacular views of the Aegean Sea and the nearby islands, as well as an optional lunch at a seaside restaurant.
It's time to taste and enjoy the famous local wine varieties of Santorini by visiting the biggest winery of the island with the best view.

My group had the chance the island of santorini with igohellas in a private guided 8-hour tour. Our guide and driver Mr Ioannis was absolutely fine. We enjoyed a lot with his funny stories about the local history and culture. He took us to the best iconic spots of the island! Highly recommended!
Thank you for your 5star review! We are delighted that you enjoyed your tour and you had a wonderful experience with your guide and driver Mr. Ioannis! We hope to see you again soon !
That was a beautiful comeback to Santorini island! This full day tour with Janis gave us the chance to explore all the highlights of Santorini and many secret gems like the heart of Santorini and the windmills of Emporio village at the south of the island. The winery was great and the restaurant 41 in Pericles beach as well! See you soon!
Hello Mrs Gina! Thank you so much for your 5star review!
My wife and I, along with another couple booked the tour for our cruise stop in Santorini. Our Guide was on time, knowledgeable, personable and took us everywhere we had asked to go, even the monastery so my wife could obtain another bottle of olive oil! He explained the best way to explore Oia, dropped us off to wander through the streets and met us when finished. He brought us to a wonderful outside restaurant he suggested for lunch on the black sand beach, and to a winery he suggested for a tasting and tour. We paid for an all day tour and we got an all day tour, a full 8 hours with our guide! We highly recommend this way to explore Santorini. It was a wonderful and worthwhile experience, well worth the cost.
Dear Mr Ken, Thanks a ton for the awesome 5-star review on our Santorini tour! We're thrilled you enjoyed it. Excited to welcome you back for more adventures! Cheers, Ioannis
This was a must do while on Santorini! We got most of the places we wanted to see and had great fun with this full day experience! Besides the iconic oía, we loved the mountain top and the three bells! Very flexible and accommodative guide! Highly recommended!
What a day! We began in Oia before the crowds arrived and were able to take pictures and enjoy the Blue Domes without a crush of visitors. Onto the highest points in the Island the Monastery towns the Red Beach and Black Beach where we enjoyed a lunch by the sea. Finished with a winery tour! Bill our guide was perfect in all respects knowledgeable helpful hints answered our many questions. One GREAT Guide! Highly recommend this experience if you want to see as much of Santorini as possible in a day!
