Overview

The full north-side loop with time built in. We start at Firostefani, follow the caldera rim through Imerovigli to Oia, then loop back through Pyrgos and Santo Wines.

The route the locals would actually do for a half-day visit — calmer than the south, easier on the legs, photogenic from start to finish.

  • Private driver-guide for 5 hours
  • Volcano view from Firostefani
  • Skaros Rock — UNESCO-protected lava promontory
  • Pyrgos medieval castle village
  • Free time in Oia
  • Santo Wines tasting
