Itinerary

Oia Village

If ever there was a picture postcard place in Greece this area of Santorini is it. The first secret spot of our private tour is located at the edge of the picturesque village of Oia, in the northern part of Santorini, with commanding views over the caldera and the famous sunset.

Holy Church of Panagia Theoskepasti

Imerovigli is probably most beautiful place in Santorini. It’s way less crowded than the famous village Oia and has some incredible photo spots too! Beside the picturesque white alleys, stair cases and bougainvilleas there are three spots you shouldn’t miss: Anastasi Orthodox Church, Skaros Rock and the hidden Theoskepasti Church.

Monastery of Prophet Elias of Thira

we continue our tour by going all the way to the summit of Mountain Profitis Ilias, where the homonymous monastery is located. Feel free and seize the opportunity to admire the outstanding view of the island, the caldera and the neighboring islands from the highest point of Santorini – 2.000 feet (600 meters) above sea level.

Hatzidakis Winery

In our visit to the Art Space Winery Museum Art Space you will enjoy a wine tasting of 6 local wine varieties of Santorini.
