Ticket office not very visible (no signs). Comments only in English. Nice hike on Nea Kameni (you need to be a good walker) and Thirassia, pretty port for a lunch break (bring a picnic if you don't want to be in the middle of all the tourists 😁).

Very pleasant experience, to be recommended to all visitors to the island. The captain of the Princess throughout the trip enlightened us on the history of the entire volcanic archipelago with great care and emphasis, both in English and French, both with excellent pronunciation.

Excellent day with the Albatross crew! This excursion is great, you absolutely must do this 6-hour cruise if you come to Santorini! I won't give away any spoilers, but my husband and I had a great day, and it went by too quickly! I recommend it 1000%!

This tour is made for you if you want to absorb Santorini's rustic beauty and explore its volcanic landmarks and classic villages.

Walk Along a Volcano & Dive into a Hot Spring!

Hop on board a traditional Greek caique boat and set sail towards the first stop of the day, Nea Kameni, a small lava island, home to an active volcano. On a guided walking tour, climb to the top of the volcano to explore the area. The crater of this active volcano looks up at you as you walk along its rim and take in the views of Santorini from a unique perspective. The green sulfur waters of Palea Kameni invite you for a refreshing dip in the geothermal spring, which offers therapeutic benefits.

With a ticket upgrade, wind up your day with an orange sunset view and white houses in the backdrop at Oia.
