Prophet Elias

You will make your first stop at the Prophet Elias Greek Orthodox Church, which is set atop the highest mountain in Santorini. It stands at 600 meters (2,000 feet) above sea level. The views here are stunning and show the island set against the blue backdrop of the sea.

Venetsanos Winery

Wine lovers will then be taken to traditional wineries, where they may sample Greek wine. You will find that the people of Santorini are very proud of our wine, as viniculture has been an integral part of our history. This is due in part to our volcanic soil which is rich in all the best nutrients to create some of the world’s finest wines.

Firostefani

We will then move on to see the famous Blue Dome Church, which you may instantly recognize as a popular image on many postcards from Santorini. This church is one of the most photographed places in the world, and we encourage you to take and share a few photos of your own!

Imerovigli

Following this, we will stop at the village of Imerovigli, which is known for its amazing views from the caldera. Skaros is another attraction in this village. It is the last remaining rock of an important castle.

Oia Town

Finally, we complete your Santorini Day Tour with Sunset in Oia. Here, you will see many homes built into the volcanic rock in Santorini, alongside more views of the city and the stretch of the Aegean Sea. This will mark the end of your tour, at which point, we will then return you safely to your designated drop-off location.
