Volcano Tour on Santorini
Many visitors to Santorini spend all of their time on the main island and never make it to the impressive volcano which juts out from across the caldera. However a growing number of in-the-know visitors make the journey during the tourist peak season, meaning that seats on cruises often sell out months ahead of time. There are no water taxis or ferries to the volcano so a tour is in fact the only way to visit.
Highlights
Don’t miss out on your chance to sail into the caldera, stroll along the volcano ridge, and learn about the volcano’s history and geology. This is ideal for time-pressed visitors: see the caldera and volcano in half a day and also take the opportunity to soak in the mineral springs at Palea Kameni.
