Athens to Santorini: 3-Day Getaway with Ferry and Accommodation

Early in the morning, one of our private vehicles will be waiting for you to transfer you to the port of Piraeus where you will board the ferry to the island which is an inexhaustible source of inspiration: Santorini.

Approaching the island by ferry you will be amazed by the imposing sight of the town of Fira, with its white houses overhanging the cliff and overlooking the volcano.

Upon your arrival to the island, one of our English-speaking representatives will be waiting for you at the port to welcome you, transfer you to your hotel, and offer a first-hand account of some of the notable characteristics of this picturesque island.

The rest of the day is free to enjoy it as you please: walk in the scenic alleys during the daytime, while at night immerse yourself in the island's big party scene.

Greca Tip: Find a nice spot and watch one of the most ravishing sunsets in the world.

Enjoy a free day to explore the enchanting island of Santorini at your leisure. Often referred to as the lost continent of Atlantis, this mystical destination offers a unique experience.

Santorini’s name was given by the Venetian Giacomo Barozzi due to the presence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Eirini. The Barozzi family occupied the island until 1576 when it became part of the Duchy of Naxos. Eventually, the Turkish conquest led by Piyale Pasha took place.

Greca Tip: To enhance your exploration, we highly recommend renting a car in Santorini. It allows you to delve deeper into the island's wonders.

At the agreed time, we will transfer you to the new port of Santorini, Athinios, where you will board the ferry back to Athens.

Greca Tip: If you want, you can buy a fast ferry ticket for this leg of your trip during step 1 of 3 of your reservation.
