What To Expect
Three Bells of Fira
The Three Bells of Fira, officially known as the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is one of Santorini’s most iconic sights. Located in the quaint village of Firostefani, just outside Fira, this charming church features a striking blue dome that contrasts beautifully with the whitewashed walls and the deep blue Aegean Sea. Its bell tower, with three bells, stands proudly against the sky, making it a favorite spot for photos and a perfect stop on a private tour of Santorini. Perched on the edge of the caldera, the church offers breathtaking views of the volcanic cliffs, the vast caldera, and the islands that make up this unique volcanic archipelago. From this vantage point, you’ll enjoy a panoramic scene that captures the essence of Santorini’s beauty and history. Visiting the Three Bells of Fira allows you to experience the island’s iconic landscapes and serene church architecture in one unforgettable spot.
Imerovigli
Imerovigli, often called the "balcony to the Aegean," is a serene village perched high on the cliffs of Santorini’s caldera, offering some of the most breathtaking views on the island. Known for its peaceful ambiance and traditional whitewashed buildings with iconic blue domes, Imerovigli is a must-visit for those seeking a quieter escape with stunning scenery. The village is famous for its narrow, winding paths that lead to charming churches and viewpoints, making it a picturesque stop on a private tour of Santorini. From Imerovigli, visitors can take in panoramic views of the volcanic caldera, the deep blue sea, and the surrounding islands. The village’s elevated location provides a unique vantage point that overlooks Skaros Rock, a historic fortress ruin that juts dramatically into the Aegean. Standing here, with the caldera stretching out below and the volcano on the horizon, you’ll experience a tranquil yet awe-inspiring scene that captures the essence of Santorini.

5.00Pavlina and Yiannis were wonderful tour guides. Pavlina was clearly extremely experienced and knowledgeable. She truly cared about us having the most amazing photos and sights and they made sure that our desires and needs were met for the tour since we had some that were physically challenged in our group. They made wonderful suggestions and the restaurant they took us to was outstanding. They were prompt picking us up and dropping us off and I would go with them again!

3.00We saw the entire island. It was beautiful. Our guide was friendly and helpful, but it was very hard to understand his English. We probably understood about 30-40% of what he was saying because he spoke very fast and the words mixed together. He asked us a lot what we wanted to see, but we kept saying we have never been here before and that’s why we have a guide. He was kind, just not super prepared and didn’t seem to have the exact details of what we were seeing. His energy level was medium.
Loved this tour and I...

5.00Loved this tour and I can't think of a way to making it any better. Our tour guide Nikolas was great! He was so knowledgeable and gave us just a perfect day. He even was very good with adjusting our time frame since our ship did not get us off the of boat the time it was suppose to. Everything was perfect and would highly recommend to anyone!
Amazing tour with Mary!

5.00Went around town with Nikos. He met us at the cable car entrance in Fira. We were taken all around the island to the top spots. Plenty of time for photos. The car was comfortable.
