★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,130 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $71

Review of Santorini’s full-day bus tour to Akrotiri, Perissa, Emporio, a winery, and sunset in Oia, with practical tips on value and pickup.

“The tour was great and our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable. Docking the two stars because we didn't visit the Akrotiri Archaelogical Site as this tour states. We weren't given an explanation other than "This tour doesn't go there, another one of our tour does", but we booked this one, the one that included it, and we were definitely in the correct tour as we were called by name. It was a bit disappointing as that was the main reason we picked this tour over the others.”
