    Thank you Argyris!

    Argyris was an amazing guide! He took us to 3 amazing wineries that all had unique and appealing qualities. Everyone in our group had a different favorite. Talking to Argyris about the island and the wines made the experience extra special, he is an amazing guide. This tour is a great way to see different parts of the island!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a wonderful time exploring Santorini’s wineries with Argyris. It’s great that each stop offered something unique and that everyone found their own favorite, this is exactly the kind of experience we aim to create. We hope to welcome you back again in the future for another memorable experience!

    Amazing private wine tour with Argyris

    We booked a private wine tour and we had the chance to have the greatest guide! Argyris is an amazing wine tour guide! He is extremely knowledgeable about Greek wines and the wineries in Santorini. He also has a great sense of humor and made the tour very fun. He took us to three of the best wineries in Santorini: Gaia, Gavalas, and Santo Winery. At each winery, we had a private tasting and learned about the winery's history and winemaking process. Argyris was very knowledgeable about the wines and was able to answer all of our questions. He also did a great job of pairing the wines with food. We highly recommend Argyris and this tour to anyone looking for a private wine tour in Santorini. He is the best!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled that you had an exceptional wine tour with Argyris. His passion and knowledge truly shine, and we appreciate your recommendation. Cheers to more unforgettable wine experiences in Santorini!

    Santorini Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Santorini Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $348 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 Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 4.5 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 Santorini Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 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 Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private 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 Santorini Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Santorini Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private Tour?

    +

    Around 4 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 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Santorini Wine Tasting: Day or Sunset Private 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 Classic Santorini Panorama: Visit Top Destinations. 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.
