Tour description

Your journey begins at a hidden gem in Imerovigli—our secret spot—where you’ll be treated to a rare double panoramic view of both the eastern and western sides of the island. The serenity and breathtaking beauty of this location are truly beyond words, offering a tranquil start to your exploration.

Next, immerse yourself in Santorini’s heritage with a visit to a charming local distillery museum. Step back in time as you experience a vivid representation of daily life in years past. Discover the art of traditional distillation and sample a variety of authentic local spirits, including ouzo, tsikoudia, and classic liqueurs.

Your adventure continues to the traditional village of Emporio, nestled in the southern heart of the island. Wander through its narrow, winding alleyways that lead up to the old castle, evoking the feeling of walking through a living maze—a place where time seems to stand still.

From there, we head to the historic lighthouse of Akrotiri, one of the oldest in Greece, built in 1892. This secluded vantage point offers a spectacular opportunity to take in the endless blue horizon of the Aegean Sea—an ideal moment for reflection and photography.

As evening approaches, it's time for a light dinner at one of our most beloved locations—a family-run taverna perched right on the water’s edge. Warm, authentic, and welcoming, this seaside spot captures the heart of local island life. Savor traditional Santorinian dishes such as Santorini salad, creamy fava, tomato fritters, freshly grilled fish, and homemade bread—all served with a glass of house wine in a serene and peaceful setting. It just might be the most memorable meal of your trip.

To end the day on a truly magical note, we’ll take you to our favorite place to watch the sunset—the Heart of Santorini. Far removed from the crowds, this natural heart-shaped rock formation offers the perfect setting to enjoy a quiet, romantic sunset. Sip on a complimentary bottle of local wine as you watch the sun dip below the horizon, painting the sky in brilliant hues you’ll never forget.
