サントリーニ火山群クルーズ：火山、温泉、ティラシア、イアサンセット

guide Dada very friendly and very professional very clear explanations always full of humor, joy, and very good spirits happy to tell us about Santorini thank you very much

Fantastic tour, everything ran to plan with no disruptions or delays. I stayed in Perissa, and the pickup point was the Meltemi Village Hotel. The Viator booking says from your hotel, but be prepared to walk to a mutual pick up point from some locations. Perissa is quite small and Meltemi Village Hotel is easy to find. The NST travel team communicated the location and time via the Viator app and email days before, so there were no issues. The port doesn’t have a sign where to go, but the staff are great and made sure people were in the correct line with their ticket. Dada (our guide) was fantastic and made sure everyone had their ticket and knew what was happening at every stage. It’s worth noting that the kiosk on the Volcano hike now accepts card payment. Wearing closed walking shoes is a must, as the path is loose gravel and steep at times. Visitors wearing flip flops/crocs/slides struggled. There is strict return time as there are several tour boats moored together at the dock and rely on all passengers being aboard before the other boats can also leave. The same occurs at the lunch stop. Captain John’s was fabulous for lunch in Thirasia, fresh seafood grilled to order! The crossing after lunch back to the port was rough due to high winds, be prepared if waves make you seasick. The crew were great and made sure everyone was seated safely and reassured nervous passengers. Worth noting that our boat didn’t have a sun shade, but it’s fine with sunscreen, hat etc. The bar is reasonably priced and sells small snacks. Before we left the boat, we were told clearly which bus to get on depending on the number on our ticket. The buses also had the matching number on their windows. The bus driver made it clear where to meet him after the Oia sunset. There were several other buses there, but the staff were great and helped people on the correct bus. Be prepared that the bus you arrive on may not be the bus you leave on, so take your belongings with you if the driver directs you. We had to wait for passengers to return and remove their belongings before we were allowed to board, but it wasn’t a problem. The staff are aware that this is where many reviews say that people get confused, and they are working to make it clearer for passengers. I would 100% recommend this tour. Be prepared for it to be a long day though, and the return bus ride back to Perissa to be quite long. Thanks to all the staff who made the day so great!!

We were picked up minutes from hotel and taken on air con coach to port. All day boat trip to volcano and hot walk up high to see magnificent views. Then back onto boat to another island for lunch and swimming. Staff on land boat very helpful and friendly. Had great day even though longer than we expected

This was a really good value for money ypur that had incredible experiences and opportunities to explore . We saw so much of the island and learnt so much about the history which gave us a really good base for the rest of our trip. Everything was really well paced and accommodating for all. The tour guides were always very friendly and helpful. The only issue was the communication sround pick up times was slightly confusing and we were picked up 15 minutes late with no notice or communication. Overall would totally recommend , really loved it!

Great experience, the guide was top notch and knowledgeable. The volcano was amazing and the experience was very fun.

The experience was good overall; but, I had mixed feelings about Thirassi as the visit (about 2-hours) was one of welcome and a little bit you’re not welcome. It’s hard to explain except to say some establishments weren’t friendly. The boat ride was good and the staff/crew were cordial and polite. The communication system (speaker system) can be upgraded or add a couple of more speakers in the bow and stern so that the tour guide can be heard. Yes, I would still recommend the tour to others even with my one caveat. Thanks!

The trip was cancelled and we were put on an alternative trip. We later found out that numerous other people had the same experience. Not a one off. The alternative trip went to the hot springs, white beach & red beach. The hot springs was not hot springs, instead freezing cold ice water which you were allowed to swim in. BAD ADVERTISING. We did not see a white beach we saw a white cliff. we we not able to access any of the beaches as the boat was far from the shore so if you are happy with taking a photo of the beaches in the distance then GREAT. The good part of the trip was friendly staff and an excellent BBQ on board. When we arrived back we did not have a transfer back to our pick up point in Perissa. Instead we had to catch a bus to the suppliers head office in Fira, completely the opposite direction, and then wait for an alternative transport to take us back to Perissa. Very disappointed in the excursion as we paid to see the Volcano and Thirassia island on a tradition Greek boat and a dip in the hot springs of which we got none. No wonder we got a discount!!!

It was a good experience to explore Santorini. The tour guy, Spyros, was great, knowledgeable, and well communicated about everything. Really like this experience. The only bad thing is poor communication about changing the pickup location a day before the trip. We reached by Viator message and WhatsApp message, and nobody responded to us.

We were several French to book on this site to have a French guide but unfortunately no Francophone guide for us even no audio guide. Despite this inconvenience the day went well, the transfer Athinios Óia by shuttle also went well despite a big blur when arriving at the port, we looked for the. Shuttle point all over the port.The guide was nice.

There is no guide, they just give you minimum instructions for each spot which is not very clear. Mostly they tried to ween ppl from getting into the waters and exploring the activities— they encouraged staying on the boat and buying cold drinks. Before booking we asked many times to see if we ends up at the same port and if there was parking at the port they gave us a very unclear answer. So to clear it up for non Greek speaking ppl. You get picked up from a bus stop close to your hotel (make sure you select your hotel from the drop down while booking) then you get dropped off at the port where they tell you which vessel to board. Then they take you to all the spots without any real info about the places and activities. The 3rd stop is the island for where you get time to have lunch and Rockey shoreline(“beach”-not really conducive for swimming). Then they take you on the boat from Oia to the same port that you departed then they put you on a bus with was very chaotic because there were no real instructions on how it is all done—we just go from person to person to figure out how it’s done. Then it’s a long bus ride to Oia city where the bus drops you off and you have to figure things out on your own and find your way back to the bus before it leaves so you can get dropped off at the bus stop by your hotel. Most of the staff speaks very little throughout so there is really no guided tour— so what does it mean when they advertise “English speaking guide”?? The captain was the rudest and yelled at us as if we were like kids or that he was a Captain of a pirate ship-we felt like he was shouting at animals (us). When we told the other staff members that they needed to treat their customers with respect they told us to submit the complain on the review platform so here it is, hope some things change. We were total of 9 ppl in our group, and we were all very disappointed with it all.
