10 Wine Tours & Tastings in Oia That You Shouldn't Miss

January 11, 2022 Milan Banda

Oia is carved out of the cliffs, and visitors can see houses built for Venetian sea captains as well as the more typical "cave houses" of the villagers. You’ll find the pure white buildings with colorful roofs that are typical of Greek architecture, and you’ll probably enjoy poking around the town. But don’t breeze through in an hour—you must stay for the sunset. It’s legendary. Watch from a café, or, better yet, from a boat—you’ll be spellbound.

We booked a private tour as had teenagers and also an autistic son who would not have coped with an organised public tour. From the initial contact with Kallisti Private Tours we had every confidence we had made a good choice. Their communication was efficient throughout. Theodore was friendly and discussed with us what we would like to see, planning a personalised tour with us before we started the day. He took us to places we would never have discovered on our own. His knowledge of Santorini and its history was second to none and we could spend as much or little time in the comfortable air conditioned vehicle as required. Cold bottled water was provided all day. The views he showed us were stunning and there were plenty of photo opportunities and toilet breaks as required. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this Tour in order to see the entire island with a good English speaking guide with so much local, geographical and historical knowledge. Real quality.

Santorini is famous for its spectacular scenery and beautiful wine. A workshop combining the two just makes sense. But that’s not all you’ll be doing… We both know photography is thirsty work. Luckily, we’ll be in the right place to grab a drink. You’re fine with it being wine, right? The sights, the sounds, and the tastes... Starting at 9 am, we’ll spend the morning exploring the north of Santorini, capturing the island from one of its highest points as it basks in the sun. Along the way, we’ll visit off-the-beaten-path locations, see hidden gems and photograph the landscape from vantage points most tourists never experience. Then, we’ll make our way to the black sand beach and my second home – the Gaia Winery. Here I’ll put my enologist hat on to tell you all about the history of Santorini’s vineyards, wineries and grapes, before ending with your very own wine tasting session.

Inclusions: Hotel pickup and drop-off, Wine Tasting

Exclusions: Photo Camera

Great tour to go on if you want to see the other islands off Santorini. Transport picks you up near your hotel and takes you to the port. A short sail will take you to the volcano, where there is a bit of a trek to get up to the dormant crater. Then off to the hot springs, water was a little chilly during October. Lastly is a trip to Thirasia, where you can have lunch and explore the island. Before disembarking, the boat sails along the inside coastline from Oìa to the port.

Me and my husband had a fabulous experience with this private tour!! Our guide Danai and our personal chauffeur John were absolutely professional, had huge knowledge about the highlights and created a unique travel experience for us! We went to the most famous spots in Santorini but we were also shown the secret hidden places which are not so touristic. Both could answer any question we had at any time and were super prepared. We were offered fresh cold beverages, a cool van and on top our guide Danai took several pictures of us :) Everything was flexible because our tour was tailor made. I highly recommend this tour to everyone who is looking for a five-star, unique tour to get to know the whole island of Santorini. Thank you so much Danai and John!!
