Walking Tours

Step into a different rhythm of Santorini with our immersive culture experiences. Wander through the early-morning streets of Fira and Oia, when the island moves at a gentler pace and familiar landmarks take on unexpected nuances. Explore ancient Akrotiri, unearthed from volcanic ash and known as the Pompeii of the Aegean. In Megalochori and Pyrgos, let the morning unfold slowly, among courtyards, bell towers, and the scent of baked bread. Follow the traces of ancient vineyards and black stone houses in Finikia, meet the local artisans who bring new energy to the village of Emporio, or cross paths with artists who have chosen the island as their studio.. Our itineraries are designed to reveal how landscape, memory, and creativity continue to define Santorini’s identity—through encounters, perspectives, and paths that don’t follow the obvious.

Boat Tours

Experience Santorini’s magic with a perfect blend of discovery and indulgence on the Aegean Sea. Begin your journey on land, visiting the Famous Three Bells of Thera, Profitis Ilias, and the charming village of Megalochori, where you’ll catch a glimpse of local daily life inside a family home. Then set sail from Vlychada Marina for a sunset cruise along the island’s coastline, gliding past the Red, White, and Black beaches, swimming in crystal-clear waters, and soaking in the island’s natural hot springs. If you're in the mood for something more active, combine a hike and boat ride around Thirassia, exploring the island from both land and sea. Let the rhythm of the waves guide you through another side of Santorini.

Food & Wine Tours

Indulge in Santorini’s rich flavors through experiences rooted in tradition and shaped by the island’s volcanic character. Join a cooking class in a cave house in Megalochori, where you’ll learn to prepare authentic dishes using local ingredients in a warm, welcoming kitchen. Wander through the historic alleys of Akrotiri and Megalochori before stepping into a family-run winery for a tasting of wines born from volcanic soil. In Vothonas, explore how ingredients like sun-dried tomatoes, fava beans, and native grapes tell the story of Santorini’s resilience and ingenuity. On Thirassia, Santorini’s sister island, pause in a traditional winery tucked into the cliffs, where winemaking follows rhythms passed down through generations. Savor the island as it’s lived and grown—through its fields, its cellars, and its kitchens.
