Pickup details
We pick up guests from all Santorini hotels & Airbnb's. If your accommodation is not on the pickup list - don't worry. We will be able to pick you up, please advise manually after completing your booking. If a hotel is inaccessible by car due to restrictions, pickup will be held from a nearby location within a short walking distance. Cruise ship travelers: The meeting point is the "Mcdonald's Fast-Food Restaurant" in Fira town. The tour may finish at a later time than the one stated online which might cause cruise ship travelers to miss parts of the tour/leave the tour earlier.
What To Expect
Both the day and sunset tour include hotel pickup and drop-off. The order in which you visit the three wineries depends on the tour you choose.
Day Tour: Meet your guide and relax on the journey to the island’s wine estates. Admire the countryside as you go, and chat with your guide about winemaking in Santorini and the area’s unique viticulture.
Santorini's volcanic soils produce wine that is rich in minerals with light-flavored notes. The island’s grapes are grown in baskets that are set close to the soil—an act that helps retain moisture from rain.
Tour the cellars of each wine estate, and follow the production process from harvesting the grapes through to maturing the wine. Walk with your guide around one of the estate’s volcanic vineyards, and sip on 12 different varieties of the island wine, including vinsanto and assyrtiko. Nibbles such as olives, bread, and cheese are also included.
Sunset Tour: Enjoy the tour as described above, but arrive at your last wine estate, the renowned Santo Wines, in time to watch the sun set. Make your way to the open terrace for an alfresco wine tasting and a plate of tapas with views of the caldera islands and the Aegean Sea before you return to your hotel.

We had a great time on the Santorini Wine tour. Tasted some really good wines and met some incredible people
Erik_H, Apr 2024
Nikos was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and super nice! The wineries we visited were pleasant and everything tasted great. We enjoyed the pick up and drop off part also.
Only thing that sucked (but wasn’t the tours fault) was the wind was pretty bad this day, so we didn’t get to the the sunset and the Santo winery :(
Other than that, we really enjoyed our time! And the group we had made the experience even better!

Our guide knew everything about Santorini's wines. He took us to the best wineries in Santorini and ensured that we would have a diverse experience. We learned so much and had a great time. I highly recommend this tour!

Our tour guide was so nice and friendly. Very informative. You visit 3 wineries, all close to each other with beautiful views. All of the wines were tasty and it was nice to have the food pairings. This tour does include round trip transportation but for some reason they claimed they couldn’t pick us up at the top of the hill where our airbnb was located which was inconvenient. They picked a location that was 6 minute drive from our airbnb and there was no parking available. So we had to drive to the first winery and was able to get in the van after that. It was really inconvenient and other people on our tour were staying at hotels on the same main road so I’m not sure why we had to meet somewhere else.

Ellena, our our guide, was amazing! Lots of fun wines to try and beautiful views. Would recommend to anyone visiting Greece.
Alejandro_L, Apr 2024
Good experience, the guide not only explained us about the wines but also more about this beautiful city and shared some recommendations to visit. There were several tastings and enough and varied snacks to go with each wine.
Finally, when you book the system tells you the closest point to pick you up from your hotel which makes things easier.

Our wine tasting tour was one of our favorite memories from our trip! We loved learning how Santorini has managed to make amazing wines in an area with very little rainfall for the grapes. The wineries we visited were beautiful with one located right on the beach and another up on a hill with amazing sunset views. Our guide, Nikos, though is the reason our tour was so memorable! He is an actual sommelier and shared his wealth of wine knowledge throughout the tour. By the end of the day, Nikos was no longer just our tour guide, he became a dear friend. We highly recommend the tour and be sure to include the sunset and tapas option!
Doug_G, Nov 2023
The trip was a great experience seeing multiple wineries. There was thought picking different wineries with different pasta and stories as well as different wine styles. We paid for the food option which was worth it to have extra pairings with the wine. Tour guide was phenomenal as well.
Samuel_C, Nov 2023
Incredible guide, nice other couples, great conversation and excellent wine choices! It couldn’t have been better!
Jennie_S, Nov 2023
A great way to see the island, enjoy some wine, and learn a little bit about Santorini. Guide, Penny, was great and very knowledgeable.
