Designed for cruise passengers, this tour lets you explore Santorini without wasting time in long lines. Instead of waiting in the heat for the cable car, step onto our boat from your cruise ship’s tender and enjoy a scenic ride across the Aegean Sea with stunning views of the Caldera. Upon arrival, an air-conditioned bus will take you on a journey across the island.
Your first stop is Finikia, where you can admire the blue-domed church and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Next, visit Oia, Santorini’s most famous village, known for its whitewashed houses, boutique shops, and breathtaking caldera views.
You’ll also visit Perivolos Black Beach, where you can relax by the water or enjoy a drink on the beach. At the end of your tour, skip the cable car lines once again as our boat takes you back to your cruise ship’s tender for a smooth and stress-free return.

In the event of exceptionally rough sea conditions preventing boat transfers, we reserve the right to operate the regular tour route instead. In such cases, a refund of €10 per person will be provided for each cable car ride required in place of the boat transfer.
Please note that wheelchairs, walkers, rollators, electric scooters, and other mobility devices cannot be accommodated on shared tours. Tours on Santorini involve uneven surfaces, cobblestone pathways, and some sections with stairs. We kindly request that all participants carefully assess their physical ability to complete the tour prior to making a reservation.

5.00Beautiful scenery, first rate tour guide and a chance to have lunch at a beachside Cafe. Tour includes a great variety and far exceeds cruise excursion experiences. Not having to wait in the hour long line for the cable car makes the entire investment more than worth the money!

5.00Very clean Transport and professional semi Private tour! We thoroughly enjoyed the day, learned a lot about the island, but more importantly loved being guided around by a local who seem to know everyone we saw. I grew up on a small island off the coast of North Carolina and it totally gave me the same vibes, even though it was a very busy day in Santorini, we were able to find pockets of peace and incredible pictures! Highly recommend this tour!
Very organized and great...
