11 Ways to Completely Ruin Your Santorini island tours 71716

1. Walk From Fira to Oia

The best thing to do in Santorini is the hike from Fira to Oia.

This is the solitary ideal point to do on Santorini-- and it's cost-free! The views are amazing. The walk takes someplace in between 2 and also 5 hours relying on your rate and also the number of photos you quit to bring the means. Beginning in Fira and relocate north through Firostefani and afterwards Imerovigli (this component of the course feels even more like a village walkway). From Imerovigli to Oia it's a mainly rural path, with just a couple of shops or restaurants. Lots of people will certainly intend to put on a tough running shoe for the stroll but I have actually definitely seen individuals do it in flip flops. The path isn't completely marked but it's fairly instinctive: stay on the path that follows the side of the caldera as well as walk north (when unsure keep to the left/west). Certainly, it's fine to do the walk in the opposite direction however it really feels much more natural (to me) to stroll north to Oia and the island's tip. And also strolling into Oia from the hills over is an awesome surface. If it's July or August I 'd highly advise beginning prior to 8am.

2. Sundown, Caldera, as well as Volcano Watercraft Scenic Tour

Do two great tasks in one boat scenic tour: walk the volcano and also swim in the warm springs. Be sure to get a scenic tour that absorbs the sunset also. There are additionally tour options that see Thirassia (a little populated island that forms part of the caldera ring with Santorini) and Red as well as Black beach. Boats usually depart from Vlychada Marina at the south of the island, or from Ammoudi Bay listed below Oia, as well as a lot of excursions provide hotel pick-up to get you to the boat. All the scenic tour firms are reputable so purchase the excursion that fits your demands best regarding timing, rate of interests, and also transport.

4. Jet Ski Tour To The Volcano

The most daring and fun thing to do in Santorini: Jet Ski To The Volcano

An insanely fun and one-of-a-kind means of seeing the Santorini tour caldera. There are various trips that go different areas-- all leave from Perivolos in the south of the island. The fastest excursion (" South Tour") sees close-by Red Coastline and also White Beach and also lasts regarding 90 minutes. The medium-length (" Volcano Excursion", 140 mins) copulates right into the caldera and also picks up a swim in the thermal springs by the volcano. The lengthiest trip (" Extreme Volcano Trip", 200 mins) takes the volcano tour and also includes Thirassia and Ammoudi Bay. The tours that go into the caldera are pretty extreme and also the waves can be huge. It's a challenging task however super enjoyable. My child has actually done the volcano scenic tour when he was 14 as well as 15 years old (that's him in the photo) and also considers it among one of the most enjoyable points we have actually ever before done. Staff are friendly, valuable, as well as very safety mindful. There's a motorboat with the tour the entire method so if somebody requires a break they can switch over to the watercraft as well as one of the staff will certainly ride the jet ski. I enjoy the boat tours of the caldera but this takes it to another level-- the cliffs are just right there! The exact same company also does parasailing, tubes, as well as water snowboarding.
