Upon arrival at Santorini Airport an experienced local driver/guide will meet you, and then spend the day exploring the world's most iconic island in a deluxe and comfortable minivan.

Oia

Commence your private tour in Santorini with a pick-up from your hotel or the nearest accessible point, and enjoy a day of exploration on the world's most iconic island in a deluxe and comfortable minivan with an experienced local driver/guide. First, drive to the island's northern part and welcome the famous village of Oia. Unique in every way with the scenic blue-domed churches and stunning panoramic views, Oia is one of the most instagramic places in Europe and a must-see.

1 hour 15 minutes
Megalochori - Traditional Village

Departing from the north, driving through the eastern coast and dry desert-like land, arrive at another traditional village, Megalochori, located in the island's interior. Stroll the narrow pathways, and capture the lovely tiered bell towers found on the way. This settlement is made of hundreds of tiny whitewashed houses with elegant architecture, beautiful blue-domed churches, and underground cave dwellings. In this picturesque and non-touristic environment, you will delve into the local slow-paced culture.

The most exciting part has arrived! Enjoy a wine tasting at a family-owned winery with three centuries of wine-making history.

Great experience once again

Published on Nov, 2024

Been to Santorini for one more time taking this tour and definitely I did not regret it. We were able to customize the whole experience while our wine tasting was a highlight at gaia winery this time. Our guide Dimitris was a great host!

Driving tour of Santorini

Published on Aug, 2024

Dimitris was a wonderful tour guide. Very knowledgeable and took into consideration our needs. I would highly recommend Dimitris if you come to Santorini

Excellent Experience with Englobia

Published on Jul, 2024

We had an excellent experience with the company! We were smoothly picked up from our hotel and had everything taken care of, including flights and boarding passes. Our Santorini tour was fantastic, with our guide Argyris driving and guiding us around most of the island. The wine tasting was also a highlight, giving us a complete experience. Upon landing in Athens, our driver was ready and waiting to take us back to the hotel. The standout of the trip was our tour guide in Santorini (Archie) and the exceptional communication with Mikaella before and after the day trip. She is invaluable!

A must in Santorini

Published on Jun, 2024

Spectacular

Published on May, 2024
