Oia
Our usual first stop is the picturesque village of Oia, a place of unmatched beauty and tranquility. Built on the slope of the Caldera, it is truly the quintessence of what Santorini has to offer: glorious skies meeting endless blue seas, traditional Cycladic houses along idyllic footpaths and an entirely immersive atmosphere – a generously rewarding experience for the visitor.
Firostefani Central Square
Another stop on this tour is Firostefani, the ‘crown of Fira’. Taking its name from its elevated position, this settlement is blessed with truly breathtaking views of the island. This location is also home to the Blue Domed Church, a prominent icon of the island of Santorini.

Joanna was a fantastic guide through Santorini. She knew the island and its history so well and she gave us plenty of alone time to wonder on our own. She was great with my children and she gave us both the history and the current state of the island. Though it was very hot she maintained a cheerful attitude and led us through the winding streets of Santorini. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Joanna!

It was rushed we only had 15 mins to see Santorini, shop and take pics. There was a great deal of other tourists so it was hard to even walk from one area to another , so again the short time we got was just enough to take a few pics. No bathroom break because we had to leave the guide didn’t have a flag for us to follow her or find her. This was a waste of money. We were disappointed and do not recommend this tour.

Our one-day private tour of Santorini was, without a doubt, one of the most magical days of our cruise. From start to finish, everything was seamless, personalized, and absolutely unforgettable. If you’re arriving in Santorini by cruise ship and only have a short time on this breathtaking island, I cannot recommend a private tour highly enough—it’s the best way to experience the highlights without stress or crowds. 🚤 Smooth Pickup from Tender Port Santorini doesn’t have a deep-water port, so cruise passengers arrive via tender boats to the old port of Fira. We were a little worried about logistics, but our tour operator provided clear and timely instructions. As soon as we arrived ashore, we met our guide near the base of the cable car station (be sure to take the cable car up—the views are amazing and it’s the quickest way to town). Our guide, Maria, greeted us warmly with a sign and a smile, and we were on our way in a spotless, air-conditioned Mercedes van within minutes. 📍 Perfectly Curated Itinerary Since it was a private tour, we had the flexibility to tailor the day to our interests. Maria suggested a perfect balance of iconic sights, local experiences, and photo stops—and she was absolutely right. 1. Oia Village We started with a morning visit to Oia, beating the cruise ship crowds. Oia is everything you’ve seen in postcards and more: gleaming white buildings, iconic blue domes, winding alleys, and panoramic cliffside views. Maria guided us through the lesser-known backstreets and quiet corners for the best photo ops—and we even had time for a relaxing coffee with a view. 2. Firostefani & the Famous Blue Dome Next, we stopped in Firostefani, a quieter village with stunning caldera views and the picture-perfect blue-domed church often seen in travel magazines. Maria even snapped a few family photos for us, which turned out beautifully. 3. Profitis Ilias Monastery We ascended to the island’s highest point for panoramic views stretching across Santorini’s entire crescent shape. Maria shared stories of the island’s volcanic history and local culture that added so much depth to the experience. 4. Megalochori or Pyrgos Village We chose to visit Megalochori, a charming, off-the-beaten-path village with cobbled lanes, bell towers, and quiet courtyards. It was a peaceful contrast to the more touristy spots and gave us a feel for traditional island life. 5. Local Winery Stop 🍷 No trip to Santorini is complete without tasting its unique volcanic wines. We stopped at a boutique winery for a relaxed tasting of Assyrtiko and other local varietals, accompanied by cheese, olives, and unforgettable views of the caldera. 🍴 Optional Lunch with a View We had the option to stop for a traditional Greek lunch, and Maria recommended a seaside taverna in Akrotiri. Fresh seafood, grilled vegetables, and Santorini tomatoes—absolutely divine. Dining with our toes almost in the sand while watching the boats go by was one of those moments you never forget. ⏰ Timely Drop-Off & Zero Stress Maria was constantly mindful of our ship’s schedule, adjusting the itinerary as needed to ensure we made it back with plenty of time. She dropped us off at the cable car entrance in Fira with over an hour to spare, and we were back on the tender boat with zero stress. 💡 Tips for Fellow Travelers • Book early—private tours in Santorini fill up fast, especially on busy cruise days. • Take the cable car up and down—it’s worth every minute for the views and convenience. • Wear comfortable shoes and sun protection, especially if exploring the cliffside villages. • Be clear about your must-see spots—a private tour lets you customize everything! 🌟 Final Thoughts Our private one-day tour of Santorini was everything we hoped it would be and more: efficient, luxurious, personal, and incredibly beautiful. With the cruise ship crowds and tight timing, we were so glad to have a knowledgeable local guide leading the way, showing us the hidden gems and iconic views without feeling rushed. This tour made our short time on the island feel rich, relaxed, and full of discovery. Whether it’s your first time in Santorini or a return visit, a private tour is the best way to experience the magic—and we’ll be dreaming about that view from Oia for a long time to come.
