Overview
Begin your adventure with a scenic drive to Profitis Ilias, the island’s highest point. At 567 meters above sea level, take in sweeping views of the caldera, whitewashed villages, and the deep blue Aegean below. As you enjoy the tranquil mountaintop atmosphere, your guide shares fascinating stories about Santorini’s volcanic origins and the centuries-old monastery perched here.
Continue to Megalochori, a traditional village that feels worlds away from the island’s busier spots. Wander its winding lanes lined with cave houses, hidden chapels, and elegant neoclassical facades, a perfect glimpse of authentic local life and a photographer’s dream.
Next, explore Oia, the iconic clifftop village renowned for its dazzling views, blue-domed churches, and charming boutiques. Learn about its maritime heritage and distinctive Cycladic architecture as you take in one of the most beautiful panoramas in Greece. Here you will also have up to 2 hours free time to explore in your own time.
End your tour at Anhydrous Winery, where you’ll discover Santorini’s unique volcanic viticulture. Savor a tasting of locally crafted wines made from the island’s signature Assyrtiko grapes while soaking up the serene vineyard atmosphere.
A perfectly balanced experience combining history, scenery, and local flavor, ideal for those seeking Santorini’s true essence in a single unforgettable tour.
