The experience
The tour begins with pickup from your hotel, port or airport, then heads to a traditional winery carved into Santorini's volcanic landscape over the past 150 years. You'll walk through a wine museum (among the best in the world, according to the operator), and taste wines using techniques locals have refined for centuries. The guide teaches the basics of wine tasting and how to pair what you're drinking with food, setting the foundation for the rest of the afternoon.
Next comes a modern, state-of-the-art winery where you see how Santorini produces wine today with cutting-edge equipment and methods. A walk through the vineyards gives you a close look at the grapes and the island's distinctive volcanic soil, followed by a tour of the winery's facilities. Tasting happens here too, with white, red and rosé wines paired with local snacks: cheeses, olives, bread sticks, tomato paste, capers and olive oil. Let your guide know about any allergies ahead of time.
The final stop is Santo Wines, a clifftop winery hanging over the caldera where the sun sets behind the sea and the volcano's shadow. A bottle of wine accompanies this moment, and your guide uses your own camera to capture photographs of you and the light. The tour ends with drop-off back to your accommodation.
