    2. Imerovigli

      Our next stop is the idyllic Imerovigli (approx 20 minutes), the place where we will enjoy a peaceful walk through its narrow streets, admiring the dazzling view of the Caldera. At Imerovigli is where we will also find the Unesco protected Mount ”Skaros” which is the most important corner of the island due to its construction, as it is completely formed by lava. In the past Mt Skaros used to be a lookout point for protection against pirates but nowadays it is the perfect spot to enjoy the breathtaking view of the Volcano, Thirasia island and the endless blue of the Aegean sea.

    3. Three Bells of Fira

      We continue our day to the neighbouring Firostefani (approx 10 minutes), a small traditional village that hosts the most popular blue domed church known as ’’The Three Bells”, where we can have a direct view of the Volcano and Thirasia island. Firostefani is one of the most suitable spots to take unique postcard quality photos for unforgettable memories.

    4. Santo Wines

      Our last stop that could not be missing from our itinerary is the famous Santo-Wines Winery (approx 1 hour). Santo Wines is one of the most popular wineries of Santorini. The Santorinian wine history is well known all over the world so wine tasting is a must. The upside here is that Santo Wines offers a large variety of local wines to taste whilst enjoying a 360° view of the Caldera.

    5. Megalochori

      After enjoying the mesmerizing view of the Caldera we will proceed to our last stop, the traditional Megalochori (approx 20 minutes) that is located on the southwest part of Santorini. Megalochori is an unspoilt village filled with traditional houses, Greek taverns, pirate’s hideaways and old wine canavas. It’s the best choice to emerge into the real Greek traditional lifestyle. Since cars are not allowed inside the village, we will enjoy a peaceful walk among the cobblestoned streets, which takes us back to another era.

    Summer in Santorini

    A Very Reliable tour operator in Santorini . I have been in contact with Elena and we were all set to do a 5 hour private tour in Santorini. From the start to finish , we were just in awe. Elena made sure that we will be able to find Apostolis( Driver/Tour guide) . Since there was a lot of people coming down from the ship. Looking at the island , we thought that we will be able to finish early . But Apostolis brought us to a lot of breathtaking views and made us see all the city in the island . We were able to see very famous places and stunning views of the island . This was definitely 1 of my favorite experience. If I will come back to Santorini again , I will definitely book with this company. I highly recommend Mr.Volcano !!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind words we really appreciate it and we are more than happy that you enjoyed your experience.

    Best Day Ever!! Wonderful Tour-- we highly recommend!

    We stayed in Santorini after 5 days in Athens. We didn't have anything planned to do, but my wife really wanted to take a tour. We booked this tour less than 24 hours before we went (other tours with other companies were booked) and it was a great experience from start to finish. A lot of the tours had preset times for their tours, but we could choose which time best suited us. That was a major plus because didn't want to go too early in the morning or late afternoon either. Aposotolis was our tour guide and he was very professional and knowledgeable about the island and just overall Greek way of living. He quickly customized our tour to our liking-- we wanted to see the whole island and my wife wanted really good pictures. Aposotolis delivered that and more! He took us to the most beautiful areas of the island-- some were even off the beaten tourist path, which was nice and unique. We really saw everything we wanted to see in the 5 hour allotment. He even took our pictures when we asked and did a really good job with that too! We could spend as much time as we wanted in each location. He would tell us where he would be parked at and we just hop in the car when we were ready for our next destination. Instead of being taking back to our hotel, we asked to be dropped off at a restaurant for lunch. Aposotolis gave us the best recommendation to eat and we REALLY enjoyed our meal. It was delicious. He even called and made us reservations. This was an AWESOME tour! It was the best day ever and Aposotolis was a wonderful tour guide!

    Response from the operator: We really appreciate your kind words thank you very much.We are more than happy that you enjoyed your day.

    5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.

    How much does 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $221 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santorini usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santorini is not rushed.

    Is 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Santorini, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santorini can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santorini and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santorini within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Santorini?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Santorini experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Premium Catamaran Cruise in Santorini including Oia, Private Santorini Tailor Made - Choice of the Guest!, Private Tailor-Made Santorini Land Tour with a Local Driver. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Santorini?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Santorini?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; All Fees and Taxes; Covid-19 safety measures; Infant Car seat; and Luxury air-conditioned vehicles. Not included: Tickets of museums. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    What languages is 5-Hour Private Custom Santorini Tour offered in?

    +
