Best of Santorini: 3-hour Private Tour with a Local Guide

We begin our tour by visiting Oia northwest of Santorini – a true jewel of the island. This village of the famous Caldera unravels all the majestic scenery of the island with its charming atmosphere, traditional local architecture and outstanding views.

Continue with a stop at a beautiful hidden spot in Imerovigli where you will have the chance to admire the view and churches with the characteristic Cycladic architecture and be amazed by the pleasing atmosphere.

You make a "photostop" at Firostefani, where the famous Blue Domed Church is located - the iconic church that has adorned the cover of so many guidebooks of the island, is there for us to admire.

Have a glimpse at the mediaval village of Pyrgos ("tower" in greek language), which is located at the foot of the mountain of Prophet Ilias. Pyrgos is famous for its well preserved Venetian Castle, the old christian orthodox churces and the traditional houses.

You visit Profitis Ilias Monastery, a must-see attraction for any traveler, built in 1711, on the summit of Mount Profitis Ilias (Prophet Elijah) - about 600 meters above sea level - the highest point of Santorini. From this point, there are no words to describe the spectacular view of the island, the caldera and the neighboring islands.

Afterwards, you have the option to visit a local winery. Venetsanos winery gives you the opportunity to taste the local wine varieties the island is famous for while enjoying the stunning views of the Aegean Sea.
