Continue your drive through Santorini's rugged hills and sparse landscape toward Megalochori. Walk through quiet alleyways lined with traditional white cottages, elegant churches, and underground cave homes. This authentic, untouristed village offers a clear window into local life and architecture.

Next, head to the island's most striking natural site - Red Beach. Snap photos of the dramatic red cliffs and volcanic surroundings that make this place unlike any other in the Aegean.

Then make your way to the historic Lighthouse in the southwest, built in 1892. It is a prime sunset spot and one of the finest examples of lighthouse architecture in the Cyclades.

From there, take a short drive to Perivolos Beach, on the southern tip of the island. Relax by the black sand and crystal-clear waters. You will have about an hour here to enjoy a swim or lunch at a beachfront taverna (meal not included).

End your tour at the monastery of Prophet Elias, the island's highest point at 565 meters above sea level. Surrounded by vineyards and breathtaking panoramas, it's the perfect place to take in the island's full beauty.

After a full day of discovery, your private tour concludes with a drop-off at the original pickup point.
