This private tour starts with a pickup from your hotel or the cruise port (top of the cable car for cruise travelers). Travel by air-conditioned vehicle with a private driver-guide who provides live commentary throughout the 4 to 6 hour trip. The first stop is a 20-minute photo break in Firostefani to see the island’s Blue Dome Church. Next, spend about an hour exploring Oia, a hillside town known for its blue-domed churches, caldera views, and sunset vantage points. Continue to the medieval village of Pyrgos for 35 minutes, where visitors see a Venetian castle, old Orthodox churches, and traditional houses. Then drive to the highest point of Santorini, the Prophet Ilias mountain at 600 meters elevation, where the monastery stands and panoramic island views can be enjoyed for about 35 minutes. Afterward, the tour visits the Akrotiri Archaeological Site for one hour to explore one of the most important prehistoric Aegean settlements. The driver then takes you to Red Beach for a 20-minute stop to view the volcanic red rock formations. Passing through Perivolos Beach, the largest on the island with black volcanic pebbles, you may stay longer to swim or have lunch at a beach bar restaurant (not included). The final stop is an optional 60-minute visit to Santo Wines Winery, where local wine production is explained and tastings are available. Bottled mineral water is provided throughout the tour. Cable car tickets, entrance fees, lunch, and gratuities are not included.
