10.Catamaran Cruise, Winery, & Oia Sunset Combo Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 28 reviews · 10 hours · from $212

Spend five hours on a catamaran with swimming stops, a barbecue, Santorinian wine, and snorkeling gear. Later, visit Venetsanos Winery and the Wine Museum with a guide such as Niki, then watch the sunset from Oia’s Sun Spirit Bar. Hotel pickup and transfers are included, but the day is long and split between two tour companies.

“We booked the day, long activity to be on the water on a catamaran, go to a winery, and then enjoy sunset and ear. We had to change the day of our activity by one day to accommodate some bad weather. We only got to enjoy the catamaran part of this activity. And there was no talk of any reimbursement for the other half of the day that we had paid for that we didn’t get to experience. I’m very disappointed by that.”
