Culture shock rating
Worried we’re going to shock your senses? Relax! We believe part of the fun of travel is immersing yourself in the destination and its culture, meeting the people, and learning what makes the place tick. We’ve got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The cultural shock rating ranks how different the experience is from most Western cultures. But no matter the level, don’t worry, you’ll have a local, in-the-know guide with you every step of the way.
Low
Consider these tours your 101 intro to a place. Transportation might be private or a very comfortable public option, and the activities are usually visits to iconic sites and locations that are familiar to most Western cultures – but that will still give you fantastic insight into a destination.
Medium
Expect to rough it for parts of this tour, whether that’s on a packed public bus or in a local market off the tourist trail. There might be a few language barriers or unfamiliar cultural customs, and you’ll get an experience different from what you're used to at home.
High
You're out there in the global community! We’re going to take you down streets you’d rarely explore on your own, introduce you to local customs and languages, and take you for a ride in whatever transport is available. Get ready to take it as it comes, whatever comes. There might be a shock, but oh man, it’s worth it.
Physical rating
Worried our tours are too tough? Relax! From leisurely strolls to muscle-burning treks, we’ve got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The physical grading gives you an idea of how much huffing and puffing you can expect on the tour.
Low
Slow and steady is all you need here. These tours have very limited physical activity, such as walking relatively flat streets, sites, or markets, and climbing in and out of the transport provided.
Medium
Not too hard, not too soft, these tours are just right! You can expect a bit of physical activity, but nothing overly challenging – perhaps walking up and down hills, riding a bike for up to 30 kilometers along mostly flat terrain, or jumping in a kayak for a gentle paddle on flat water.
High
Get ready for a workout! These tours are our most challenging and involve intense walking, hiking, kayaking, swimming, or bike riding. You could be making steep climbs by foot or pedal, or working your core in the water. We recommend you have a good level of fitness to join this tour.

We begin our Santorini Walk, Drink, Eat Sunset walking tour from the historical female Monastery of Agios Nikolaos, located between the villages of Firostefani and Imerovigl, where you’ll meet your local guide.
Through the windy cobblestone pathways totally perched on the edge of the caldera cliffs we’ll move to our first stop where we’ll sip a refreshing local liqueur and sample a mouthwatering sinful local sweet while enjoying superb views through the caldera and the Aegean Sea dotted with volcanic islands.
Then, eat your way through Firostefani’s footpaths by tasting Santorini’s most ancient fresh seafood dish, admire uninterrupted views and click amazing photos with the blue-domed Virgin Mary Orthodox church in the foreground, one of the perfect-picture spots of the island. Do not forget to post your once-in-life Instagram stories from here!
Continuing our walk through hidden back alleys and seizing the chance to capture countless of your best photos with the fabled Santorini sunset, we’ll quench our thirst with an ‘explosive’ local craft beer, a Santorini exclusive beer that follows a local-original procedure in the making, accompanied with local seasonal tapas.
Later on, while strolling around the characteristic Aegean-styled whitewashed streets, you’ll have the opportunity to wake up those taste buds with a tasty souvlaki, the most famous Greek street food, visit a food concept store with flavours and products from every corner of Greece, and enjoy unparalleled views from an off-the-tourist-radar spot with a glass of volcanic wine and a traditional Santorini seasonal dish.
This Santorini walking tour wouldn’t be completed without participating at a 3-glasses local spirit tasting session including the absolute Top-3 Greek spirits and learning about the local spirits culture in Greece.
Our tour will come to an end in the buzzing Fira, Santorini’s capital that offers a vast array of leisure options. From here, you can choose to continue your own personal exploration (your guide will be more than happy to advise you on your next move).
