Unforgettable! Volcano, hot springs, Thirassia lunch, Oia sunset—packed day but totally worth it. Crew was caring and funny.

This was my favorite day in Santorini! Hiked the volcano, swam in the hot springs, ate fresh fish on Thirassia, and saw the Oia sunset. If you love adventure, do this! Boat was comfy, crew was lovely, and the memories will last forever.

Went with friends. Boat was cool, volcano hike was long. Hot springs were nice, but water was brownish. Lunch was good, not enough time to explore. Oia sunset was packed but beautiful.

Took my mom and dad, and they LOVED it. We were worried about the hike, but you can go at your own speed. The boat was really nice, and the guide answered all my dad’s questions (bless him). Hot springs swim was fun, just watch out for slippery rocks. Oia sunset—so many people, but still gorgeous. Would recommend for families.

Had an AMAZING time! Volcano hike was intense but worth every step. Hot springs swim was hilarious (don’t wear white). Lunch on Thirassia was fresh and tasty. Sunset at Oia was crowded but stunning.

The best day we had in Santorini! Volcano hike, hot springs swim, lunch on Thirassia, and the Oia sunset—perfection. Crew was friendly and fun.

Nice trip overall. We were a family of four (kids 8 & 11). The hike up the volcano was a bit much for our youngest, but we took it slow. Staff were kind and helped carry her backpack lol. Loved the lunch spot—so fresh! Hot springs were cool but beware: your swimsuit might stain orangey! Only downside: the bus was packed and a bit stuffy. Oia sunset was a perfect end, even though everyone had the same idea.

Enjoyed the day. Volcano was steep, but worth the climb. Hot springs were fun, but your swimsuit WILL turn orange. Lunch was nice, not much time to explore. Oia sunset was magical but crowded.
Maria

Took my partner on this tour for his birthday—def one for the memory books! The volcano hike was a bit more challenging than I expected (bring extra water!!), but the view at the top was EPIC. The boat ride after was chill, and the hot springs felt soooo nice after all that walking. Staff was super friendly, even cracked a few jokes. Sunset in Oia? Ridiculous. I mean, people were crowding the edges to get pics, but worth fighting for a good spot. Only thing—lunch on Thirassia was kinda rushed, but the feta was delish. Would 100% do again.

Fun day out! The volcano walk was a workout, but the view was worth it. Hot springs were cool, but don’t expect a spa. Lunch was tasty, and Oia sunset was magical.
Yuki
Apr 2025Verified Partner Review
Loved the boat—looked like something from a movie! The volcano was cool, but the path up is dusty, so wear decent shoes. Hot springs were fun but u have to swim a bit to reach the warm part, not for weak swimmers. The crew helped my mom get back on the boat, which was sweet. Oia sunset... wow, but it was crowded. Heads up: bus pickup was late, so we were a little stressed at the start, but turned out fine.
Hanna

Nice day out. The volcano was interesting, though the path is rocky. Hot springs were nice, but the swim is longer than you think. Lunch spot had great views. Oia sunset was packed, but we found a spot on the wall. Staff was friendly.

I went solo and made friends on the boat, which was cool. The hike was sweaty but the guide told funny stories. Swimming to the hot springs was harder than it looked but worth it. Food on Thirassia was sooo good—those olives! Sunset in Oia: busy, but magical. Staff was helpful all day.

Went solo and had the BEST time! Met other travelers on the boat, everyone was just in a great mood. The volcano hike was hot (bring sunscreen), but the views made it sooo worth it. I was nervous about swimming to the hot springs, but the crew encouraged me and I did it! Thirassia lunch: try the tomato fritters. Oia at sunset is chaos but gorgeous. This trip was the highlight of my week.

Good overall; hot springs swimming was the fanciest part.
There was a confusion about the pickup place and time (I didn't get an email) so I had to call to the office and rescheduled it for the following day.

This was brilliant from start to finish. I was worried it might not happen as never used headout before but was super easy to book and join the event. The boat itself was a lovely Greek sailing boat and it took us to three different amazing locations across the island. They served food onboard which was exceptional and the staff were so polite and helpful, nothing was too much travel.
The private transfer back from NST was an amazing surprise and would use again.

The experience was great for our family of 6. The crew were very nice and tentative. The lunch was enjoyed all around! Kebabs, pasta, salad and drinks! My only complaint was that we wished we had longer to snorkel at the 2 locations, but understand the time schedule. The water was perfect!

Santorini Volcano Sunset Dinner Cruise & Open Buffet with Transfers
What to expect on a Santorini boat tour
- Breathtaking views: Sail past the towering caldera cliffs, where whitewashed villages like Fira and Imerovigli perch like sugar cubes above the deep blue sea. As the sun dips low, watch Santorini's sky ignite in shades of fiery orange, soft pink, and deep gold. There's nothing quite like drifting on the water as Oia glows against the darkening cliffs.
- Swim & snorkel in turquoise waters: Drop anchor in secluded bays where the water is clear and inviting. Dive in to discover a world of vibrant marine life beneath the surface, or simply float in the warm, salty Aegean.
- Discover hidden beaches: Cruise to the island’s famous Red and White beaches — breathtaking stretches of coast framed by volcanic cliffs. Accessible only by sea, these remote shores offer a chance to sunbathe, swim, and snap photos far from the crowds.
- Luxurious comfort: Stretch out on sun-drenched decks, sip chilled wine, and enjoy a gourmet Greek feast prepared on board. Whether you’re soaking in the sun or relaxing under the shade, every moment is wrapped in luxury.
