On our day trip to Santorini from Heraklion, we will explore this beautiful volcanic island, including visits to Oia and Fira.
Santorini Day Trip
At the designated time, we will meet you at your chosen pickup point in Crete or directly at the port of Heraklion. We will board a boat to the port of Athinios on Santorini, following a 2.5-hour crossing of the Aegean Sea.
Upon arrival, we will board a bus with a guide who will explain key details about the island. Our first stop will be Oia, where you will have around 1.5 hours of free time to explore its characteristic streets filled with white houses and blue roofs.
Next, we will proceed to Fira, the island's capital. You will have 1.5 hours to stroll through its streets and sample local cuisine. There is also an optional short day trip to the volcano of Nea Kameni available for 1.5 hours, which will reduce your time in Fira to 20 minutes.
In the late afternoon, we will return to the boat for our journey back to Crete, concluding the 12-hour day trip at the port of Heraklion. If you selected the pickup option, we will return you to your hotel.
