    This is a must do hike in Santorini. Our guide Lily was very informative and friendly. Be ready for long hike but the scenery is worth it. Having transportation included back to Fira was great. I would highly recommend this tour.

  • Excellent service

    This was such an awesome experience. The walk itself was a beautiful experience but unfortunately the weather was not on our side (it was still mesmerising). However, the hospitality that Elle and Victoria showed to us after we were drenched was heartwarming. They provided us with warm towels and a ride back to our respective hotels. They went above and beyond to look after us and make sure we were comfortable. Hats off to you both. I will definitely be rebooking with you next time I come :)

    Very informative! Our hiking guide, Lilly, was so pleasurable to listen to. She also told us where all the public restrooms will be available (and when they were NOT available) along our route. We would not have received or gathered all the historical information if we had completed this hike on our own. Also, Kathryn provided us with such a great service of picking us up with warm dry towels and a heated van. This was very much appreciated, since, out of nowhere, a rain storm poured down on us; nobody can control the weather, but Lilly and Kathryn adapted superbly!! We got so much value out of this tour; we highly recommend it if you would like to have context along with beautiful sites to see.

    Great hike! Beautiful views all the way, village views and then the more rugged landscape so you did feel as if you were on a proper hike. Sandra,, who led us, was great. Very knowledgeable in local history and the landscape. Would highly recommend.

    Stunning views and great tour of Fira to Oia. Our guide, Sandra, was so fun and very knowledgeable of the Santorini history! We hope to do this hike/tour again in the spring next time we visit.

    I was travelling solo and wasn’t sure on what the hike would be like so opted for this guided tour, it ended up being just myself and Sandra the tour guide. She arrived with some snacks and water, which was very much appreciated. We stopped at various points along the way, to learn some of the history, take photos and also to have a little rest. The walk is around 9.5km and is hilly at points but it is definitely worth doing and offers stunning views of both sides of the island. I would highly recommend this tour with this company.

  • High-rated hike!

    Wow - what a magnificent conclusion to our first trip to Greece! Sabine (our tour guide) not only was pleasant but explained each landmark and site in detail we passed along our 6 mile hike (we were the only participants that morning.) As we skirted the Caldera, Hubby and I were amazed at the awesome and picturesque views! The hike began in Fira and went through the towns of Firostefani, Imerovigli before concluding in Oia. Along the path, we saw thyme and capers, pumice, wildflowers, trees (including Norfolk Pine) and historic buildings (several chapels.) The pathway varied along the way (paved, cobblestone, dirt.) Although the hike remained relatively easy for the first four miles, it became a bit challenging the last two as there was loose dirt and the final incline was steep. Once we reached the final chapel, it was all downhill as we approached Oia. After reaching the finish line, they provided transportation back to our hotel in Messaria. For anyone who loves to walk/hike/explore nature, this is definitely the way to experience Santorini! Highly recommended hike/tour!

    We had a wonderful time on our hike from Fira to Oia with Kathrin. She is extremely knowledgeable about Santorini, sharing a wealth of history and fascinating facts about the island throughout the journey. I highly recommend taking this tour with her if you're up for a long and moderately challenging hike. The 5+ mile trail offers breathtaking views and access to parts of Santorini that can only be reached on foot. As both the owner and guide, Kathrin provided us with an unforgettable experience.
