Santorini is known for its breathtaking sunsets and whitewashed houses, but beyond the tourist spots lies a quieter, more authentic island — and that’s exactly what this private tour will reveal. With a local guide, you’ll explore scenic villages, volcanic landscapes, and end your day with a world-famous sunset from a secret spot most visitors never find.
Begin your tour in the traditional village of Pyrgos, with its medieval architecture and panoramic views. Your guide will take you through winding alleys, past blue-domed churches, and into hidden courtyards, sharing stories about the island’s history, from ancient times to the present day.
Next, visit the black sand beaches of the southeast, or the dramatic Red Beach, shaped by volcanic eruptions. Your guide can take you off-road to explore Profitis Ilias, the highest point on the island, or into family-run wineries where you can taste Santorini’s unique Assyrtiko wines, grown in volcanic soil.
As the sun begins to set, avoid the packed cliffs of Oia. Your guide will lead you to a secluded viewpoint — perhaps a vineyard terrace or a quiet monastery hill — where you can enjoy the golden hour in peace, with a glass of wine in hand.
Perfect for couples, photographers, or anyone seeking beauty with authenticity, this tour lets you experience Santorini like a local — not just through your lens, but through real stories and secret spots.
