Experience the best of Santorini day tours

by sophia Alam Affiliate Marketer

Santorini, one of Greece's most beautiful islands, welcomes millions of visitors each year. The Southern Aegean Sea island is renowned for its breathtaking treks, beaches, and panoramas. A lot of the island can be seen during Santorini day tours, but you need carefully organise your itinerary to see as much as you can.

 

How to Visit Santorini in One Day.

Early and late planes from Athens

One of Santorini's distinguishing characteristics is its size. Due to its size, Santorini can accommodate many attractions within a single day's visit. In fact, you can travel from Athens in the early morning and return in the evening. As a result of the Santorini day tours' popularity, multiple flights are offered daily. The flight is only 45 minutes long, so you won't have to worry about long or exhausting travel.

As a cruise passenger

Santorini is frequently visited by cruise ships sailing the Mediterranean Sea. The Fira cruise ship pier, which is situated close to the Old Port, requires you to take a tender boat in order to go offshore. Be ready for this because, from Fira's historic harbour, you must ascend 600 steps or use a cable car to get to the town. Although the legendary donkeys from Santorini are also there, it is not advised to utilise them to ascend the mountain. There will also be lineups for the cable car, so be aware of that.

Take the bus to Oia and other sites, or plan a private tour like the Santorini excursions that will take you around the island from Fira.

Things to see on Santorini day tours

Explore Oia Village

If you just have one day for Santorini day tours, you must visit Oia. The most well-known and stunning hamlet in Santorini is this one. Oia is home to exquisite Greek buildings, opulent hotels, and mesmerising sunset vistas. The town is home to ancient structures, winding streets, and delicious Greek cuisine. One of the most well-known attractions in the city is the Marine Museum, which comprises a library, fragments of a Venetian stronghold, and historical maritime displays. Additionally, there is a little harbour named Ammoudi close by that is accessible by descending 300 stairs. Once there, you'll discover little boats, breathtaking scenery, and delectable seafood restaurants. Instagram has photos of the well-known sunsets in Oia. You should ascend the slopes for the best views.

 

Explore Pygros or Emporio Village.

The former capital of Santorini, Pyrgos, should be included in day trips to the island. It is the best-preserved mediaeval neighbourhood on Santorini and plays a key role in Greek history. One of the biggest draws for tourists is the scenery. There are expansive views of the coast that are definitely worth the journey.

Pyrgos has some of the most beautiful balconies, terraces, and infinity pools in all of Santorini, which is why visitors like it. Perhaps Pyrgos' best quality is that it is less congested than other areas of Santorini. It is less busy, less advertised, and more pleasant when compared to other breathtaking Santorini destinations.

Emporio Village

The largest village on Santorini, Emporio, can be visited as an alternative on day trips from the island. Several gorgeous residences and yards can be seen in the village of Emporio, which is located in the centre of Santorini. Emporio, in Santorini, was formerly the island's commercial hub and a lively neighbourhood. Despite its peace and quiet, it receives fewer tourists today than other Santorini areas.
