Great Way to See Santorini in a Short Time - We had a 5-hour tour in Santorini and it was a great experience. Pick-up from the cable car was easy and well-organized. Even though we had limited time, we managed to see so much — the Red Beach, White Beach, some lovely villages, and we stopped for a nice lunch.
The highlight for us was the famous Three Bells Church with the volcano in the background — such an amazing view! We ended the tour with a beautiful stroll through Oia.
Perfect way to see the island when time is short. Highly recommended!

Great Tour for Cruise Passengers – A Perfect Day in Santorini! - We had an amazing experience doing a 5-hour (which turned into 6!) tour in Santorini, and it truly made the most of our short time on the island. We arrived by cruise ship and were picked up near the cable car at 10 AM. Communication was smooth and easy through WhatsApp, which helped a lot since we had to take the cable car up to meet our driver, Manolis.
Our first stop was Oia, where we had time to stroll around, enjoy the views, do a little shopping, and just take in the charm of this beautiful village. After that, we visited Firostefani and the famous Three Bells Church – such a lovely and iconic spot for photos.
Next, we headed up to the highest point of the island, where the views were absolutely breathtaking. Around lunchtime, Manolis recommended a wonderful local restaurant right by the sea. It was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some delicious Greek food with the sound of the waves in the background – a truly authentic experience.
We continued to the Black Beach, which was really impressive, and since we mentioned we were interested in wine, Manolis suggested a winery visit. He was so flexible and easygoing – the tour ended up lasting 6 hours instead of 5, just so we could enjoy a wine tasting experience. That extra hour made all the difference!
At the end of the tour, Manolis dropped us off near the cable car, and we had some time to walk around before heading back down to the cruise ship.
This tour was exactly what we needed – well-paced, personalized, and with a guide who really cared that we had a great time. Highly recommended, especially for cruise passengers looking to make the most of a day in Santorini!

A Beautiful and Relaxed Way to See Santorini - We did a 5-hour tour in Santorini and absolutely loved it. The tour started at 4 PM, and Manolis, our driver, picked us up right from our hotel. He greeted us with a big smile and offered us cold water – such a small but thoughtful gesture, especially since it was a really hot day!
We started from the south of the island, first stopping at the Akrotiri Red Beach, then the Black Beach. Both were stunning in their own way. Then we visited Pyrgos, a lovely traditional village with charming little streets and beautiful views. After that, we drove up to the Monastery of Prophet Ilias, the highest point on the island. The view from up there was just amazing – a full 360° of Santorini!
As we made our way to the north, we stopped to see the famous Three Bells of Fira in Firostefani – such an iconic spot. Our last stop was Oia, where we had almost two hours to walk around, explore, and of course, watch the sunset. It was just as magical as we had hoped!
Throughout the tour, Manolis shared so much interesting info – about the island’s history, culture, local life, and little details we wouldn’t have known otherwise. He really brought the place to life for us.
We had enough time at each stop to explore, take photos, and soak it all in. Since we were only staying in Santorini for two days, this tour was the perfect way to see and experience a lot without feeling rushed.
Highly recommend it – especially if you're short on time but want to get a real feel for the island.
