Private Wine Excursion with Local Lunch, Santorini

Start your journey in the picturesque town of Oia, strolling around its cobblestone pathways and admiring its whitewashed buildings against the deep blue of the Aegean. Explore the hidden gems of the village on a short walking tour and make your way to the ruins of Oia's castle, the perfect spot for picturesque postcard photos with stunning windmills in the background. Remember to leave some time for shopping or a refreshment break before moving on!

After some leisure time, head south to the island's highest point, past Pyrgos village, to visit the Prophet Elias Monastery, perched at an impressive 2,000 feet (565 m). Take a moment to light a candle in the interior and soak up the expansive views that span the entire region. 

From here, make your way into the island's countryside and let your local guide show you around. Take in the breathtaking countryside of the island, with lush rolling hills and charming villages that will take your breath away.  

Capping the trip, you'll visit two traditional Santorini wineries! Here, you'll sample different types of Assyrtiko wine while learning how locals produce wine in such a dry and volcanic environment. Enjoy a delicious lunch of local dishes at one of the wineries to round out your experience!
