This 5-hour bus tour covers key spots in Santorini, starting at Firostefani. The tour begins at the top of the Cable Car connecting the port to the island, where passengers are picked up. The first stop is Firostefani, known for its blue-domed church and views of the volcanic caldera. After about 15 minutes, the tour moves to Finikia, a quiet village where visitors can enjoy views of Oia and a peaceful atmosphere. Next is Oia, the island's most visited destination, with about one hour of free time to walk its traditional streets, photograph the blue domes, visit the Venetian castle, shop, or have a drink overlooking the caldera. Following Oia, the tour heads south to Megalochori, where participants spend roughly 30 minutes exploring narrow cobblestone streets, whitewashed houses, and a local vineyard showcasing Santorini’s volcanic wine production. The final stop is Perivolos Beach, a black volcanic sand beach where visitors have about one hour to swim, relax, or enjoy a Greek lunch by the Aegean Sea. Time at the beach may vary depending on the schedule. The tour includes transport in an air-conditioned minibus, bottled water, commentary from the driver-guide, pick-up and drop-off at the Cable Car top station, and free time for lunch and shopping. Food, drinks, gratuities, and Cable Car fees are not included. The tour offers a full refund if cruise schedules change.
