On our day trip to Santorini from Heraklion, we'll explore one of Greece's volcanic islands, visiting Oia and Fira.
Santorini Day Trip
At the scheduled time, we will meet you at your selected pickup point in Crete or directly at the port of Heraklion. After meeting, we will board a boat to the port of Athinios in Santorini.
It will take approximately 2.5 hours to cross the Aegean Sea to reach the island. Once we arrive, we will board a bus where the guide will provide details about the island. Our first stop will be Oia, with about two hours of free time to explore its streets lined with white houses and blue roofs.
Next, we will visit Fira, the capital of the island, where you will have 1.5 hours to enjoy the area. There is also an optional short excursion to the volcano of Nea Kameni, lasting 1.5 hours, which would reduce your time in Fira to 20 minutes.
In the afternoon, we will return to the boat for our journey back to Crete, concluding at the port of Heraklion after 12 hours. Those who opted for pickup will be returned to their hotel from the pier.
