Santorini Sightseeing Tour

Think of any of the many movies filmed in the Mediterranean, and you cannot help but recall beautiful whitewashed houses built into majestic cliffs overlooking crystal clear waters. As difficult as it may be to believe, many of those shots come from the exact same location: the Greek island of Santorini. It’s little wonder why this tiny island paradise is one of the world’s most popular travel destinations and ports of call. Santorini has enough in the way of sights, sounds, and attractions to fill an entire two-week vacation. However, if you don’t have that much time, consider instead a one-day private Santorini sightseeing tour by luxury vehicle. See Oia, Imerovigli, Firostefani, Prophet Elias, Pyrgos or Megalochori, Venetsanos Winery, Akrotiri, Red Beach, Perivolos Black Beach

Speaking of sights, Santorini offers some of the best in the world. Starting and ending your day in the village of Oia allows you to take in all of those quaint seaside homes you’ve seen in films before catching one of the most breathtaking sunsets you’ll ever experience. The famous Blue Dome Church in Firostefani is another exceptional attraction you won’t want to miss. If you want the absolute best view of Santorini (and the surrounding Aegean Sea), you can visit the Prophet Elias Monastery and enjoy a stunning panoramic vista.

Ever wonder what makes the waters surrounding Santorini so stunningly blue? It’s because the island actually sits on top of a submerged caldera (a.k.a., a supervolcano). The village of Imerovigli offers an incredible view of it, as well as the unique geologic features it has created (such as the renowned rock of Skaros). Of course, the most stunning evidence of the area’s volcanic history is seen in the sands of its beaches. Both Red Beach and the black beach at Perissa and Perivolos feature awe-inspiring red and black sand, which makes for a perfect walk along the water or the ideal backdrop to a relaxing afternoon lunch.

Your Santorini sightseeing tour via luxury vehicle will also not be devoid of opportunities to get away from all the excitement the local tourist trade generates. You can also opt to visit either the Venetsanos Winery or the Estate Argyros for a world-class sip of wine or take a quiet stroll along the streets of the quaint little village of Megalochori.
