Imerovigli
Imerovigli is probably most beautiful place in Santorini. It’s way less crowded than the famous village Oia and has some incredible photo spots too! Beside the picturesque white alleys, stair cases and bougainvilleas there are three spots you shouldn’t miss: Anastasi Orthodox Church, Skaros Rock and the hidden Theoskepasti Church.

Monastery of Profitis Ilias
We continue our tour by going all the way to the summit of Mountain Profitis Ilias, where the homonymous monastery is located. Feel free and seize the opportunity to admire the outstanding view of the island, the caldera and the neighboring islands from the highest point of Santorini – 2.000 feet (600 meters) above sea level.

In our visit to the Koutsogianopoulos Winery Museum you will enjoy a wine tasting of 5-7 local wine varieties of Santorini (wine tasting included in the price).

A great day in Santorini
Had an amazing day with Vasilis as our driver and guide for the history and highlights of Santorini. We had Vasilis for 8 hours today and it went by so fast. He was born and lives in Santorini and his family goes back further than 500 years there. His passion for the beauty of the island is contagious. It was a great day and we learned so much!!! I highly recommend Vasilis!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so so much for your lovely words. It was our pleasure for meeting you and show you our beautiful island.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.
How much does Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines cost?
+
Prices start at $275 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 Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 39 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 Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines?
+
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 Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines?
+
Around 14 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines 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.

Not included: Dinner; Lunch; and Cable car tickets for cruise passengers (€ 10per person / each way). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Santorini Unveiled. A Private Tour of Hidden Vistas and Wines include hotel pickup?
+
