Jennifer –

This is a must do when visiting Santorini. The views are stunning. Our guide was wonderful. The stop for a snack along the way was lovely. It was probably the best sunset I have ever seen.

Sharon – United States

For the inaugural visit to Greece in celebration of my parents' 50th anniversary, we opted for this particular hike due to the highly recommended caldera vistas along its trails. The scenery and panoramic views proved to be absolutely breathtaking. Our tour guide, Sophia Mpougioukou, was incredibly sweet and attentive, taking excellent care of my family. Given that my parents are in their 70s, the hike presented a strenuous challenge for them. However, Sophia vigilantly looked after their well-being throughout the entire excursion, even offering them walking sticks, which proved to be indispensable, especially in rugged and demanding terrain. This unforgettable experience will stay with us forever, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to return in the future.

Full description

With this hiking tour, you get to walk along the rim of the beautiful caldera of Santorini and through the villages of Fira, Firostefani, Imerovigli, and Oia with plenty of chances to take photos of the breathtaking views.
Along the way, pass through beautiful villages with distinctive white-washed houses, stop at panoramic viewpoints and pass by beautiful churches. On the way from Fira, you hike over the caldera and pass in front of Skaros, a separate rock, where the first fortress was built on the island.
Pass by the Firostefani monastery and Imerovigli. Pass by the Prophet Elias chapels, where your group stops for a rest and enjoys a delicious picnic lunch featuring fresh fruit, a sesame bar, and a fresh smoothie.
The terrain of the path varies: Some parts are paved sidewalks, some parts are cobblestone, and other parts follow just a dirt track. The hike takes around 3 hours depending on the walking pace and how many breaks you have.

I could have done this hike alone but guided by Eva and with other people made it so much more enjoyable. Warning: wear your most comfortable hikers, the path is solid and hard on feet and knees. Tremendous Caldera views the whole way.
