Meeting and Pickup
Parts of Santorini are built on steep cliffs, making parking very difficult or even impossible. For this reason, there may be instances when we can’t access your specific hotel—but we will always get as close as possible. After your booking, we’ll send you detailed pickup instructions and the exact meeting point.
