Santorini Private Wine Tour:3 Wineries, Sommelier, Tapas & Sunset
Description
Santorini's volcanic wines are unlike anything produced anywhere else on earth. On this private tour, a certified sommelier takes you through three of the island's finest wineries — underground caves, historic cellars, and clifftop estates — for 12 tastings paired with local tapas, cheeses, and delicacies. First stop: Koutsogiannopoulos Wine Museum, 8 metres underground in a natural cave, where the history of Santorini winemaking comes to life before your first tasting. Second: Estate Argyros, one of the island's most prestigious modern estates, for a seated tasting including the legendary golden Vinsanto. Third stop adapts to your booking time — Art Space Winery, a boutique cellar inside an 1861 art gallery, for morning tours, or Venetsanos Winery on the Caldera cliffs for the iconic Santorini sunset. Fully private — your group only, your sommelier's full attention, your pace. Hotel, Airbnb, port, and airport pickup included.

This wine tour in Santorini was absolutely amazing and one of the highlights of my trip! From start to finish, everything was seamless, well-organized, and truly enjoyable. My host, Sofia, was exceptional. She was not only warm and welcoming, but incredibly knowledgeable about the wines, the history of Santorini, and the unique winemaking process on the island. You can tell she’s passionate about what she does, and it made the experience even more special. We visited three beautiful wineries, each offering something unique. The wines were fantastic and truly a treat whether you’re a wine expert or just enjoy trying new things. The pairings with traditional Greek snacks were perfect and really elevated the tasting experience. If you’re visiting Santorini, this tour is a must do. It’s the perfect blend of education, relaxation, and indulgence. I would highly recommend it and would do it again in a heartbeat!
Sofia was simply a gorgeous treat of a guide to have accompany us on our winery tour. She was so fun to be with! I feel like I met my long lost Greek cousin and hope to work with her again. High recommend booking anything adventure with Sofia.
We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience with us. It was a pleasure having you, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We hope to see you again soon!
We spent a fabulous afternoon with Sofia! It was like going on a wine tour with our knowledgeable, fun, and witty BFF. We went to 3 different wineries and had delicious wines and snacks. We were educated about all the wines we were served and the history of wine making in Santorini. During the car rides Sofia gave us Santorini history and pointed out things along the way. She gave us tons of recommendations for things to do and places to eat, as well as answered any of our questions. Great experience! Thank you Sofia🩷
Sofia & Georges were great taxis, I sent a message to the agency, sofia answered me very quickly and she came straight. They were available all the time, every day, even in the evening after 21:30... We had a great time thanks to them and with them! Very beautiful people who can be trusted from the first exchange! It was a real pleasure to have them as a taxi for 2 young women like us (19 years each). Moreover, it is very easy to talk to them even if you do not speak too English, at worst use translate in complicated moments.
Warm and friendly tour guide, Sofia, took us sightseeing around Santorini, including a visit to the old monastery on top of the highest hill, a historical cave house in a village, and other scenic spots in Santorini. Ended with lunch at Greek restaurant & winery with great food and wine tasting experience.
A warm taxi ride through the city, smooth drive, kind driver, pleasant journey home, safe, calm, joyful. ............
Sophia is the most amazing tour guide and warmest person ever! I can not recommend her services enough! She took such an amazing care of us chaperoning all over the island. She’s very knowledgeable and funny. Will miss her dearly and hope to see her when we’re back in Santorini again! ♥️
Our trip to Greece was nothing short of unforgettable and a huge part of that was thanks to Sofia. She was pure magic! From the moment we met her, she brought the perfect blend of professionalism, charm, and just the right amount of sass to keep things fun and fabulous. She didn’t miss a beat..every detail was seamless, every moment thoughtfully planned, and every laugh unforgettable. Sofia, you’re a gem. Thank you for making our girls’ getaway one for the books! 🇬🇷✨
From the minute you meet Sofia you feel relaxed and looked after. She obviously knows the island and ants to share her knowledge. I had an idea of what I wanted to see and she shared her thoughts which turned out to be better! Thanks for a great day!
The tour has been magnificent, Sofia explains every detail of the tour, tells us the whole part of the story and makes you sit inside it, recommends unique sites, is recommended 100% because your company makes the tour very enjoyable, thanks for everything, if we are here again we will call you.
