Imerovigli, Imerovigli, Greece Your early wake-up call will be richly rewarded as we begin the day at our secret observation point in Imerovigli, often called the balcony of the Aegean. Here, perched atop the cliffs beside a serene blue-domed chapel, you’ll enjoy a rare double panoramic view—eastward to the rising sun and westward over the caldera. As the sky transforms with the soft hues of dawn, take in the peaceful majesty of Santorini awakening. Your guide will prepare a traditional Greek coffee (or a warm tea, if you prefer), accompanied by loukoumia, a sweet local delicacy that pairs perfectly with your morning cup. There’s truly no better way to begin your day than with this serene and breathtaking moment. 30 minutes

Enjoy ample time to capture postcard-perfect images and absorb the quiet beauty around you. 60 minutes
Three Bells of Fira, Fira, Greece From there, we’ll head to Firostefani, a peaceful village near the capital of Fira, offering a spectacular view of the volcano and the caldera. Here, you’ll have the chance to photograph the famous blue-domed church with the volcano in the background—an image that graces countless representations of Santorini’s beauty. 15 minutes

From this extraordinary vantage, enjoy sweeping views of the entire island and the surrounding Aegean, ideal for stunning panoramic photographs and quiet contemplation. Our final destination is the historic village of Pyrgos, once Santorini’s capital and arguably its most beautiful traditional settlement. 15 minutes
Pyrgos Kallistis, Pyrgos Kallistis, Greece Nestled around the remnants of a Venetian castle, Pyrgos offers panoramic views of both the eastern and western sides of the island. Wander its winding, labyrinthine alleys and admire the harmonious blend of Cycladic and Venetian architecture that defines the village’s unique charm.

My partner booked the sunrise tour so we could experience the island and Oia for its beauty and in peace. Our guide, Xenofon picked us up from our hotel on time, and his knowledge and warm friendly approach was just perfect and allowed us to see the island and some of the details and secrets that you wouldn’t see on your own!
Even though we missed out on the sunrise due to a cloudy morning, it still felt special (and the cooler temperatures made walking more comfortable!)
We would thoroughly recommend this tour and would do it again. Thank you!

Fantastic tour. We beat the crowds to Oia and nearly had the place to ourselves. Highly recommended if you want to see the touristy areas without the crowds.
