Each vehicle is spacious, air-conditioned, and designed for comfort on every type of terrain. This is more than a ride—it is your personal gateway to the most authentic side of Santorini.

Meeting and Pickup

Pickup point
Pickup details

We offer pickup and drop-off from anywhere in Santorini, including the port (Athinios), airport, and all hotels, villas, and villages like Fira, Oia, Imerovigli, Kamari, and Perissa. Pickup time is based on your location and confirmed 24 hours before your tour. Please be ready 5–10 minutes early for a smooth start. For Pickup is at the top of the cable car in Fira. Your driver will be waiting with a sign showing your name. Allow 20–30 minutes to disembark and reach the top.

What To Expect

Start your journey with a scenic drive to the Windmills of Emporio, where you’ll explore one of Santorini’s most charming villages and admire traditional windmills overlooking the countryside and coast.
Next, head to the Heart of Santorini, a naturally formed rock shaped like a heart, hidden along the caldera cliffs, perfect for romantic photos and breathtaking views. From there, visit the Akrotiri Lighthouse, a peaceful, uncrowded point on the island’s southern tip where the sea and sky seem to meet endlessly.
Continue to the striking Indian Rock, a dramatic cliff formation resembling a human profile, and a favorite among locals.
Stop above the Red Beach to admire its unique red cliffs and volcanic backdrop, capturing some of the island’s most unusual natural colors.
Drive up to Profitis Ilias Monastery, the highest point on the island, where you’ll take in panoramic views across Santorini and the neighboring islands.
Finally, visit the iconic Three Bells of Fira, where you’ll enjoy one of the most famous and photographed views in the Aegean before returning comfortably to your drop-off point.
If you book the tour at 16:00 you will have a chance to witness an amazing Sunset at the Three bells of Oia.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
