Sip your way around Santorini on a half-day wine tour, visiting three traditional wineries dotted around the picturesque island.
While savoring up to 12 different varietals made from grapes such as the indigenous Assyrtiko, learn all about the island’s unique viticulture that produces some of the crispest whites and seductively sweet wines in the Mediterranean.
Walk around a volcanic vineyard, explore the wineries' cellars and enjoy a platter of local cheese to eat alongside the wine.
Hotel pick-ups will be done to the closest accessible areas; parts of Santorini are in a slope and can't be accessed by vehicles
Minimum age is 18 years
The wines served during the tour are mainly whites and dessert wines, as these are the kind of wines the island of Santorini produces.This is a gentle note for guests that only drink red wine.
The tour includes plates of cheese and snacks served alongside wine-tastings at the wineries, not a full lunch or dinner. However keep in mind that the snacks served during tour will be adequate for the time-frame the tour lasts and maybe beyond.

Great way to sample a few different wineries and snacks around the island of Santorini. Very interesting wine making processes and information. 12 different wines, with tapas at each stop, finishing at sunset with the most spectacular view of the sunset. Small group tour in air conditioned vans, very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Everything from start to finish was wonderful. The pickup was easy to find. The tour guide was fun and very knowledgeable. The wine was all very good and I am a red wine drinker.and it is mostly while. The last winery had a beautiful sunset view. All the guests had a wonderful time together even though we all just met. Wonderful experience.

Kostis was our sommelier and he was absolutely tremendous! His expertise, personality, and friendliness were fantastic. The three wineries provided great variety—including environments & incredible views, different wine making processes, and various snacks. Kostis was the perfect wine guide and we would recommend this tour 100 times over!

We had such a great time with Angelo. My brother did this tour with his wife in 2023, and said it was a great experience and I couldn't agree more. Angelo has a great sense of humor and of all the wine tours I've been on (Italy, Portugal, and Spain) I learned the most from him. Would highly recommend if you want to learn more about wine and can appreciate some dark humor. Also, they were prompt with the pick up and there was good communication leading up to the experience.
