T he tour guide Nickos was amazing. Full of information and took us to places that perhaps many wouldn't see. We went to the highest point and the view was phenomenal. The only glitch was the planned merging place. But after making a phone call to the office it was sorted out quickly. I would highly recommend Nikos at Get you Guide. A very kind and knowledgeable man.

Full description

Explore the sites in Santorini with this shore excursion. Snap pictures at the through pass from Imerovigli and admire the volcano. Then, sit back and relax in the air-conditioned bus as you head inland to the iconic village of Oia.

Oia is home to the 15th-century castle Fort Londsa, during which the Franks ruled the Cyclades. Stroll through the village and be captivated by the iconic white-shaped, whitewashed houses that define the island's architecture.

Pause at significant landmarks, including the famous windmills on the northwest point. Enchanting Ayia Ekaterina is one of the oldest monuments in Oia. Continue to the Three Blue Domes, where you will have time to get out and take some photos. Then, spend some free time strolling around the village and stopping at a café or a restaurant.

Later you will be transferred to Fira to explore further and finish at the Cable Car of Fira. From there, you take the cable car down to the cruise port to board your ship in time for departure.
