About SantoriniToursHQ
I’m Vaggelis — Greek, and Santorini is not just a destination I’ve researched. It’s somewhere I’ve visited multiple times: walked the caldera paths, eaten in places that don’t have English menus, watched the Oia sunset from spots that aren’t in the Instagram guides, and learned which catamaran companies actually deliver and which ones are overpriced tourist traps.
SantoriniToursHQ exists because Santorini deserves better than generic “top 10 things to do” articles. Most of them are written by people who spent 48 hours there. This site is built on real knowledge of the island.
What you’ll find here
- Tour guides — catamaran cruises, wine tours, cooking classes, ATV adventures, with honest assessments of what’s worth it.
- Practical guides — best time to visit, June vs July vs August, where to stay beyond Oia and Fira.
- Hidden gems — Ammoudi Bay, Pyrgos village, the Koutsogianopoulos wine museum — places not yet overrun.
- Curated bookings — hand-picked tours via Viator and GetYourGuide, affiliate links disclosed on every page.
When you book through our links, we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. That keeps this site independent and free.
