Overview

This tour offers an amazing opportunity to tourists that stay in Heraklion, Crete to visit Santorini and have a full-day tour around the island.

Our first stop is Oia. We will walk around the village, admire the breathtaking view to the Caldera and take some fantastic photos!

Our second stop is the Blue Dome in Firostefani. This Greek Catholic church dated from the 16th century is famous for the three bells, the blue dome and of course the amazing view to the Caldera. Heading at the south we will visit the following famous spots: Profitis Ilias, the highest spot of the island, almost 580 meters above water. The beautiful Black Beach of Perissa, for a launch break by the sea. Swimming will also be permitted! The famous Red Beach, near Akrotiri Village, created few thousand years ago after a series of volcanic eruptions.

After an unforgettable tour on the island, our guests will be finally dropped off at the port of Santorini to take their boat back to Heraklion city, in Crete.
