Begin your journey with a visit to Oia, the island’s most celebrated village and one of the world’s most photographed locales. Stroll along its enchanting narrow pathways, admire the iconic blue-domed chapels, and marvel at the traditional whitewashed houses gracefully nestled within the rocky cliffs.
Proceed to Firostefani, a charming village adjacent to the vibrant capital, Fira, renowned for its breathtaking views of the volcano and caldera. Revel in the scenery and capture the quintessential image of the blue-domed church framed against the volcanic backdrop—an iconic sight immortalized in countless depictions of the island.
Venture southward to the historic Akrotiri Lighthouse, one of Greece’s oldest, dating back to 1892. Here, immerse yourself in the endless expanse of the Aegean Sea’s deep blue.
Nearby, encounter one of the island’s most extraordinary natural wonders: the Red Beach. This striking shoreline, adorned with vibrant red volcanic cliffs, is not to be missed. Capture unforgettable photos and admire the rugged volcanic landscape.
Next, experience the contrast of Perivolos, the island’s renowned black sandy beach favored by locals. Delight in swimming and snorkeling within the crystal-clear waters of the Aegean. The area boasts numerous beach bars where you may unwind on rented sunbeds or enjoy a leisurely seaside lunch. For those seeking excitement, a variety of water sports are also available.
Ascend to the Prophet Elias Monastery, the island’s highest point. From this commanding vantage, indulge in exclusive panoramic views of Santorini and its neighboring isles, perfect for striking photographic moments. Bask in the monastery’s serene atmosphere, a sanctuary established in 1711, and savor artisanal local delicacies crafted by the resident monks.
Pause at Pyrgos village, Santorini’s former capital, offering sweeping vistas of both sides of the island. This enchanting traditional village is arguably the most picturesque on the island, with its Cycladic and Venetian architectural fusion evident in the historic castle and winding pathways. Meander through the labyrinthine streets and perhaps snap charming photos with the village’s beloved donkeys.
Conclude your day with a visit to Santo Wines, the island’s largest winery, perched on the western cliffs. Words scarcely suffice to describe the breathtaking panoramas that unfold from this vantage point. Capture stunning photographs, browse the winery’s boutique market, or simply savor a glass of fine local wine while soaking in the unparalleled views.

Our tour guide, Fon, was super friendly snd informative. Loved spending the day with him.
We had a great day. The communications were all great prior to the tour. We were met at the top of the cable car and taken to our guide/driver, Evans. He was fantastic,showed us all the sights and some hidden places and got us back to the boat with plenty of time to spare. He was a great guide and took heaps of photos of us without being asked. Highly recommended.

Fantastic afternoon with Fon, our guide. Punctual, comfortable minibus and adapted to circumstances. Oia, Akrotiri and black sand beaches. Fon was really lovely, full of information and knowledge. Thank you.
Santorini Island Tour did not disappoint! Starting with our wonderful driver/guide Xenofon Creview, who was absolutely incredible. As someone who is from Santorini, Xeno is very knowledgeable about the history, the people and their culture. Need to all so salut his excellent driving skills along the narrow, crowded streets. He took us to the most incredible vistas on all sides of the Island, we enjoyed some very good wine at a Winery with a stunning of the sea, topped off with a delicious lunch on the longest black sand beach in the world. Our visit to Santorini definitely exceeded our expectations and created lasting memories.
Evan’s was a fantastic tour guide!
Our guide was Evans Merkouris - from the time he received us at the airport till we depart from Santorini - he was ever cheerful, respectful friendly, informative & responsive to our queries & requests. He was respectful of our halal dietary needs & gave us options to select which we enjoyed very much. He also took us to very iconic & "secret" spectacular viewing points of the caldera, & the villages not only in Fira & Oia but also the other villages. He was certainly our hands-on photographer & Evans certainly has made our visit a memorable exoerience.
Fon is an exceptional guide. My husband and I had a wonderful experience with him guiding us around Santorini’s special spots. We saw Oia, a hilltop monastery, the Red Beach and the most fun was the winery at sunset. Very romantic! We loved the tour.
We just had our Island tour 21 September 2025. Anthiosios and George our driver was truly one of the best tours we have ever experienced. They made our trip one of a kind and to be able share life and all of our families during the trip made it even more personable. Anthiosios was very passionate and extensive on his knowledge of San Torini.
Ares the driver was great. He was very informative and patient. Excellent points of interest. Excellent views Great weather !!!
The views were expectacular we took a lots of pictures. The driver/guide was awesome and well prepared 👏 Xe Nofon, we loved it
An outstanding tour experience full of great memories, history, amazing sceneries and conversations. Aris, our tour guide, knows all the history of Santorini and was able to answer our questions. A knowledgeable professional who takes pride in his work. Thank you.
George was an amazing tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the places he took us to in Santorini. We had the best time!
Our guide tour was Evan’s. he did an excellent job explaining the significance of the places we went. We enjoyed every place we visited. The Oia was breathtaking. Will definitely comeback again to explore more. Thank you
George our tour guide was very good, attentive, knowledgeable and he made the tour immensely informative. We highly recommend him as a tour guide.
Thank you xenofon for the amazing half day trip around the island. Not only was our guide funny but he knew a lot of history. Very safe driver who took us to look out spots that were less crowded and picture perfect. We ended up watching the sunset at a winery which was icing on the cake. 👍👍👍
Xenofon was fabulous. He took us to all the key sights and accommodated our changes as we went. We requested a stop for lunch and he took us to a lovely spot on the beach. He was knowledgeable and pleasant throughout. We would highly recommend Xenofon.
We last minute scheduled our private tour with Emmanouel, (due to our sunset cattamaran being cancelled because of weather) and this was by far the best decision we had made! Not only does the island of Santorini revel in its beauty, Emmanouel was knowledgeable, insightful, & personable, helping us capture the charm and wonder of the island! Our private tour was comfortable, customizable, and stress free! Emmanouel was dependable and communicated effectively & effectiently through every stop we had! If you are in Santorini, you MUST book a private tour with Emmanouel, you won't regret it! Thank you Santorini Island Tour for accommodating us!
The views were breathtaking! The knowledge our guide was through and very captivating! Our driver was exceptionally trusting and safe. Both was very friendly! I would definitely have them doing my next tour!
Amazing! This is a tour of a lifetime and bucket list item. Our tour guide, Xenofon, made the experience a 10/10! He went above and beyond our expectations and truly made the experience memorable. I highly recommend him and this private tour. Absolutely spectacular and worth every penny!
A great day with Xenofon. He brought us into interesting points of view. Punctual and polite driver. I recommend this tour.
Very good guide. Many explanations. Shows us around several secret places. Very attentive and helpful guide.
