  • 100% recommended excursion

    The tour is very complete. A plus point is to be picked up at a specific place to go down to the port, as the road is somewhat complicated and the parking there is even more complicated. The only thing to improve was the return: there were many, several boats coincided on arrival and the organization was a bit chaotic because no one knew for sure which bus belonged to him. After 11 hours of excursion, we were all very tired and would have been ideal to know in advance the assigned bus number to go directly and avoid confusion. Otherwise, a very complete and recommended experience.

  • Amazing day for all the family

    What a great day! Everything was great - the boat, the time spent at each stop and the stops themselves. The guide was knowledgeable and we all had a great day Definitely make sure you have trainers on for the volcano hike, and water shoes for the thermal swim, the water is shallow and the mud is very slimy you definitely don't want to stand in it in barefoot. I would also recommend not wearing a white swimsuit, as the hot spring water is yellow, and does stain! If you don't want to do the swim, you can stay in the boat and watch. We loved the add on to Oia to watch the sunset we had 3hrs there to explore and find a great spot to watch the sunset. The bus picked us up and dropped us back to Perissa.

    Gostei: Good communication, excellent punctuality. I didn't like: Walk crowded, do not warn that in the place of the volcano if you do not want or can not climb, you have to stay inside the boat, because there is nowhere to walk.

  • A little disorganized, but beautiful and overall worth it!

    Overall, the tour was worth it! The hike at the caldera offered beautiful views of Santorini and the surrounding area. The "hot springs" weren't hot, but still warm and a very unique experience! Thirassia was a nice stop for lunch, and there's a couple souvenir shops if you're interested. The boat itself had a lot more people than we expected, but we still enjoyed the ride and it was still a very cool, unique experience to be sailing around the Aegean Sea. There are bathrooms on board the boat, as well as a small bar with drinks for sale. After the cruise, we were supposed to be bussed to Oia. As other reviewers have noted, this part is rather confusing. While on the boat, they had announced to get on "the bus on the right" to go to Oia. Once we got off at the port, all the buses were parked in a group and it wasn't clear at all which bus to take. I showed our ticket to a bus driver, and he pointed us to his bus. He then drove us back to our pickup spot, not Oia. He emphasized it was my mistake because I did not point to a bus route on the ticket when I showed him? We ended up driving ourselves to Oia, as we had rented a car. Oia was very crowded at sunset, as expected, but it was beautiful and nice to see. It was annoying that we had to drive ourselves, but if you can figure out their bussing I would still recommend including the Oia sunset as part of your package.
