Amazing trip - Amazing trip - picked up on time and taken to the port. Got on a wooden boat with two bars and very clean toilets. The boat then went to the volcano and you has the choice to hike up and see the crators. Be warned this is some hike, we loved it but others in our group struggled a little. Amazing views at the top and a real highlight. The next stop was a swim stop in the hot springs. You have to swim at least 30 / 40m to get to them. So make sure you can achieve this. Water temperature certainly warms up in the spring area which is brown due to the sulphur. Then on to a second swim stop in front on an island and then a superb lunch, bread, salad, chicken, meat balls, tesiki and as much wine as you want. Then a desert is supplied. Finally off to watch the sunset and then home. Ceaser was our guide who was excellent. The bar prices were very reasonable and the boat was not over crowded making it very comfortable.

A beautiful day - Tb We enjoyed this busy day. Value for money tb Lived with my 15 year old son Guide tb No cable car to pay

Unique experience - It was a spectacular tour, a unique experience being on an activity volcano. Swimming in the thermal waters was indescribable. The boat Capitan John is picturesque and the staff, attentive and attentive. We love it.

Sun and fun - The event, overall, was worth it. It was a very long day so make sure that you bring sneakers for the volcanic trails. The tour consists of visiting volcanic islands and a we had about 1.5 hours to swim. At the end, we returned to the dock and traveled to Oía via bus. Oía is a FANTASTIC picturesque city with mind boggling views and fantastic sunsets. The boat captain nor the tour guide were very informative. For example, when we went to the bus none of us were informed that we were going to Oía. We were barely given any instructions. Bottom line, it was a great experience and with a little tweaking it could have been perfect. Bring your sneakers, a bathing suit, towels, sunscreen, Euros for drinks/lunch and a hat. You will get some serious sun exposure.

A view of Santorini by boat. - I enjoyed all phases of the Tour. It was very refreshing. The crew was very safe, knowledgeable and experienced.

Best Day - This trip was absolutely fantastic. Amazing tour guide and ship crew. All experiences were amazing. Plenty of time to do what we wanted. Such amazing value. Smooth transfers. Highly recommend.

Underwhelmed - We were left underwhelmed by the excursion since we thought there was a trip to hot springs however it is NOT hot springs but instead thermal water - eg a small bit of the sea which is hotter than the rest. You have to be a strong swimmer and be able to swim like 10m to get to the thermal waters from the boat, which is also made more difficult by the massive crowds of people also going. Trying to get back on the boat is also hectic and can only be described as rowdy!! However the lunch at Therissa island was nice (not included) but there is no time to do anything else except have lunch. We were confused when the boat was returning to port and passed Oia, which was our next stop, but it didn’t stop there and instead returned us to the original port where we then had to get another coach back to Oia to see the sunset. There was no guide when we were dropped off in Oia and we were given no guidance of where to go or what to see while waiting for the sunset. A tiring day out which could have been organised better!

Volcano with no sunset... - Getting tickets for the boat is totally disorganised and like a feeding frenzy around the ticket person with everyone trying to get their ticket. The volcano tour is great but tiring. The swimming is for approximately 10 minutes. Unfortunately the sunset in Oia was a bust due to cloud cover.

Worth it for the volcanoes - The explanation of how the islands are formed and the volcanoes were pretty captivating and clear. The tour guide explained it very well. However, the entire organization was very cluttered and some of the crew members on the boat were rude. This tour takes you to Nea Kameni and Palea Kameni for the hot spring which is totally worth it. Post which you will be taken to Thirasia where you have only two hours. The climb to the Manalos looks tedious but since you are given only 2 hrs, you are forced to have lunch by the port and spend all the time you have there itself. They do not dock in Oia. After Thirasia, the boat goes closer to oia and takes you back to the port of Fira. Then they have organized buses to go to Oia by Road. The entire part of finding the bus that goes to oia is a chaos and do disorganized. I've never been on such a messy trip.

Bad - the guide was excellent, very friendly, however the captain of the boat was very arrogant, there was a moment when we stopped at sea to go to the waters of the volcano and the three of us don't know how to swim and we asked for the pasta to float, but when my husband came in with the pasta the captain ordered He came back and took his buoy and gave it to someone else and said he couldn't go in because he didn't know how to swim. Now my indignation remains. If I fear pasta, why did the captain do this with it alone? Another point we didn't like was going by bus to the island of Oia because the tour talked about a cable car but we were left at the port for the bus to take us to the island It was not the expected trip
