Highlights
  • Santorini Volcano - The Santorini volcano tour starts from the picturesque old port of Fira.

Gialos, the Old Port, lies below Fira, nestled at the foot of a rocky cliff. You will be surprised with the steep slopes of the Caldera and in the end the tiny port will appear under these huge rocks and the cave houses that seem to dangle on the cliff. There the guides of your excursion will be waiting for you, to give you all the important information and to orientate you on the boat.

Our first destination will be the famous volcano of Santorini! After 20 minutes sailing, we will reach Nea Kameni. If you are interested to be guided at the volcano, you will walk to the volcano’s ridge with your guide and you will listen to everything about the history and the geology of the volcano. You will stay at the volcanic island for 1,5 hour.

Amazing - Georgia was fantastic and the whole experience was awesome. The hike up the volcano wasn’t too challenging, and we were given breaks to catch our breath. The swim in the hot springs were amazing, but make sure to wear a dark swim suit as the minerals will stain light colors. Also recommend showering and especially washing your hands before you do anything else, as I caught a mild bacterial infection from the swim.

Volcano tour - Excellent tour and history of the volcano and formation of Santorini as it is today. If you plan to swim wear a dark bathing suit.

Great day on the water - We chose to tour areas of Greece without taking a big cruise liner- with this tour and others we enjoyed the beautiful water without the fuss of cruising! The boat was comfortable and i even got in the water for the hot springs- it was cold before it was hot- but a lovely little dip! The crew was lovely and the explanation of the area very interesting!

discovery of the Santorini volcano and its history - Very well conducted excursion. On Nea Kameni the geological landscape is spectacular and the guide gives us a host of very interesting explanations in very clear and perfect English.
