Highlights
  • Hatzidakis Winery - Start your tour with a visit to Hatzidakis Winery, which is located in the most famous village of Pyrgos Kallistis, on the way to the monastery of “Profiti Ilias-Santorini”. It is situated 330 meters above sea level. Have the chance to discover its unconventional structural design, constructed from above and moving downwards before tasting three of its exceptional wines.
  • Wine Museum Koutsogiannopoulos - Continue with the Wine Museum in Mesa Gonia and get a glimpse of what life was like as a winemaker here. This one-of-a-kind museum happens to be nestled in a cave, a natural labyrinth eight meters below ground and 300 meters long, twenty-one years of hard work of the Koutsogiannopoulos Family. Learn about the stages of the winemaking process including ploughing in the vineyards, and then harvesting, stomping, and weighing of the grapes, about the range of machinery necessary to make wine all the way through to what is used today. Refresh your palate by tasting the family’s renowned volcanic wines.
  • Sun Spirit Cocktail Bar - Your last stop will be Oia and Sun Spirit Bar, one of the best places to watch the sunset. Relax and enjoy your wine in this idyllic space, as you watch the sunset deep into the sea.

Santorini's Best Wines - Wonderful experience with a very knowledgeable guide. Wineries were amazing and the wines were even better. Learned a lot about the wine making process and industry in Santorini. Reserved sunset table in Oia with Cheese platter and wine was a great way to finish. Highly recommend for lovers of wine.

Delightful! - Natalie and our driver were fantastic! They were kind enough to share information about the history of the island, the vine growing methods and local culture. We had the best spots for tasting and sunset views. This private tour is highly recommended!

Wine and a view? Excellent experience. - My wife and I had a great experience on this tour. Our tour guide (whose name I cannot remember, but he's an archaeologist) was really great. The first stop was at the top of the highest hill in Santorini from where you can see just about everything on the island - which was beautiful. The second stop - the first winery - was a pleasant experience with five wines and a brief view of the cellar and production facility. The third stop - the second winery - was a more conventional tasting experience with a cave museum tour (which was informative but a little Disneyland-like). Finally, we concluded in Oia at a bar with a tremendous view of the sunset - the best part of the experience in my opinion! We really loved it and were grateful to participate. We definitely recommend this if you're looking for something to do that gives you views of the island and helps you try some of the wine that you'll see all around you during your stay.

Really Beautiful and Relaxing - It was soo good. The wines were so nice and we stopped at so many beautiful and historical spots. Went to the beach for lunch and went for a swim which was amazing. And finished off with the most beautiful sunset at oia. The tour guide was sooo nice and welcoming and funny, she kept things so interesting and made everyone feel very welcomed and comfortable.

Definitely recommend! - Our guide Rena was so friendly and knowledgable! We had a great time at the wineries. Oia was packed on the day we went because of a cruise ship. That would be my only complaint but that is no fault of the tour. Just be aware you could be there on a day where you are walking shoulder to shoulder with people because it’s so crowded which makes it hard for shopping and pictures.

Wine tour-santorini - We arranged wine tour in Santorini through NST tours. Pick up was a tad stressful as they were about an hour late so we were not sure if we were in correct pick up location or if we missed bus. They do give you google map location which is helpful but when in a foreign country travel can be stressful! Once we were picked up the rest was smooth sailing! Our tour guide was very knowledgable about Santorini, and local wine production. We went to 2 wineries and ended with a beautiful sunset drink in Oia at a perfect location. We had an area of reserves seats which was great as seats during this time are every hard to come by! We met people from all over the world in our group which was lovely! Would recommend!
