About this trip
Three days across Santorini and Crete, mixing island scenery with a proper dose of history and food. You get the Cycladic postcard moments in Santorini, then swap over to Crete for ancient ruins and olive oil.
Expect whitewashed alleyways and blue-domed chapels, a sunset cruise out to the volcano, and a private guided walk through the Palace of Knossos. It's a short trip, so it moves at a fair clip between the two islands.
Food and wine get proper attention too — local Santorini wine and fava, then an olive oil tasting at a Cretan estate with bread and local delicacies on the side.
What you'll do
- Sunset cruise to the Santorini volcano
- Wander Santorini's cube-house villages, chapels and windmills
- Private guided tour of the Palace of Knossos in Crete
- Taste Vino di Santorini, pomodorini and fava
- Olive oil tasting at a traditional Cretan estate
- Fast-paced for three days — you're covering two islands and switching locations
- Self-guided outside of the arranged tours, so you'll manage some of your own logistics
- Suits couples, families or small groups after a mix of culture and beach time rather than a slow island break
