Successful half-day trip

5.00The tour to the volcano and the hot springs went exactly as described in the tour description. The organization was perfect, and the guide had interesting information about the volcano. He was also available for additional questions. Everyone should bring sturdy footwear, water, and a certain level of basic fitness. There was a total time window of 90 minutes for visiting the volcano, which was completely sufficient. Afterward, we went to the swimming area, where there were adequate instructions for swimming, and those who wanted could take a pool noodle into the water. The distance from the boat to the hot spring was manageable. It was a refreshing pleasure. 30 minutes of swimming time was sufficient. The cove is highly frequented by other boats during the season. Overall, it was a wonderful trip and receives our recommendation.
Great hike followed by the hot springs swim

5.00This was a fun experience with my husband, 24 and 22yr old sons. We are a pretty active family and enjoyed the hike to the top of the volcano. But it may be a little tough for those who are not keen hikers. We would have liked more time at the top. The swim in the hot springs started with a surprise jump off the side of the boat, the swim itself was very manageable , and we could feel the change in water temps as we passed over the hot parts of the springs. Those who preferred not to swim stayed in the boat. The tour guide was very nice and we learned a lot about the volcano.
Amazing

5.00Not a single bad word. You would think 3 hours is not enough, but it’s plenty. Plenty to see, plenty to experience and to learn. Loads of time to do stuff in your pace too. Tour guides friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend 🫶🏻

5.00This was definitely one of the highlights of our my husband and my honeymoon. The ride was pleasant and had beautiful views of the caldera, the Aegean, and the volcano. Jumping out of the boat was super fun, even if the water is cold, and having to swim to the hot water made it so worth it. I would absolutely do this again.
Beautiful experience and well...

5.00Get there early and talk to the office. They give you a sheet of paper to board with. Pay attention for when they tell people which boat

3.00The boat ride was nice the hot springs more than I swim out to warmer water, but only had about 25 minutes and he was hurried back. Volcano was not what I was expecting at all. It was an island formed by a volcano. So it was a gravel path up and down hills. No indication that there had ever even been a volcano

Super unique excursion in Santorini!

5.00This is a must do for a unique experience in Santorini! Getting down to the bay was quite a challenge though…if you’re walking down please add a good 15 minutes if you’re briskly walking…it’s a LOT of stairs. But DEFINITELY take the cable car back up after!!! We boarded a large boat that resembled a pirate ship and sailed to the volcano first. We were told that when you got close to the volcano you would smell the sulfur and the rock would actually be warm (neither were true for our group) however it was still a neat little hike where you could go off on your own a bit. We then sailed over to the area where you could hop in (with pool noodles provided) and the water was extremely cold! But as you swam closer to the hot springs you could literally feel it getting warmer. It was so crazy honestly. We wrote our initials in the mud on a rock and then headed back to the boat again. The only thing was that we didn’t bring a towel (we thought they were provided) so it was a really chilly ride back all wet! We thought it was a really cool and unique experience!
Good way to see the island from sea and well worth the price.
