Athinios Port Santorini
Our Skip Cable Car Santorini Tour is designed specifically for cruise ship passengers like you. This top-rated, time-saving tour lets you skip the long, hot wait for the cable car and dive straight into exploring Santorini. As soon as you step off your cruise ship’s tender, a boat picks you up and takes you directly ashore—bypassing the crowds completely. Enjoy breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea and Caldera during your transfer, making even the journey part of the experience.
Finikia
After the boat reaches your designated pick-up spot, an air-conditioned bus takes over. Start your sightseeing at Santorini’s famous blue dome in the peaceful Finikia area. This spot is ideal for iconic photographs without the Oia crowds, offering a relaxed first impression of the island’s unique Cycladic architecture.

This was a very good way to see Santorini and you DO NOT want to take the cable car I am sure it’s a lovely experience but the line is something to behold (and you need to behold it 2x). This is a small group. Our guide was exceptional and very interactive with the group. You have time to take the pictures you want and see all the things you have seen pictures of that made you want to come Pro tip. Bring a protein bar Your opportunity to have lunch is at the very end of the tour Beyond that this was the way to go Much less expensive than the ship excursion and we were at all the same places

It was fantastic to get off from the cruise ship tender and simply hop on the tour boat, totally skipping the funicular line!

The small buses that they pick you up in are 18 people, but the seats are very small and uncomfortable. Overall, there’s not that much to see in Santorini. They did not take us to the town where the Cable car let you off. I think people would have left The tour.

This tour was wonderful! It allowed us to see everything we wanted to see in Santorini! Our tour guide, George, was wonderful! He was knowledgeable and very present throughout the tour. Additionally, he made certain that everyone’s questions were answered and that we had ample time at each site to explore and learn!
