Experience Santorini through its world-renowned wines on this immersive island tour led by a Greek sommelier.
We'll visit two carefully selected wineries, each offering a unique perspective on the craft of winemaking.

The second is a hidden gem making waves for its modern approach to viticulture and focus on rare local varietals.
You'll learn how Santorini’s volcanic soil and unique microclimate influence its distinctive grape varieties. You'll also discover how to taste the subtle flavor notes of each wine, with personalized guidance from your expert sommelier and paired with Greek cheeses, breads, and other small bites.
