The experience was perfect. The guide was very friendly and the explanation on the volcano was very good. The only problem was the pick up, they did not give us the information until we called three times. Then they didn't give us concrete information about where they were going to pick us up and gave us two different times so we almost missed the bus.

Took my partner on this tour for his birthday—def one for the memory books! The volcano hike was a bit more challenging than I expected (bring extra water!!), but the view at the top was EPIC. The boat ride after was chill, and the hot springs felt soooo nice after all that walking. Staff was super friendly, even cracked a few jokes. Sunset in Oia? Ridiculous. I mean, people were crowding the edges to get pics, but worth fighting for a good spot. Only thing—lunch on Thirassia was kinda rushed, but the feta was delish. Would 100% do again.

Nice trip overall. We were a family of four (kids 8 & 11). The hike up the volcano was a bit much for our youngest, but we took it slow. Staff were kind and helped carry her backpack lol. Loved the lunch spot—so fresh! Hot springs were cool but beware: your swimsuit might stain orangey! Only downside: the bus was packed and a bit stuffy. Oia sunset was a perfect end, even though everyone had the same idea.

    • Walk to the top of the Nea Kameni lava islet and peer into the crater of the active volcano on a guided walk along the rim.

    • Swim in Palea Kameni’s hot springs, then relax on Thirassia island with lunch or a visit to Manolas village by foot or donkey.

    Took my mom and dad, and they LOVED it. We were worried about the hike, but you can go at your own speed. The boat was really nice, and the guide answered all my dad’s questions (bless him). Hot springs swim was fun, just watch out for slippery rocks. Oia sunset—so many people, but still gorgeous. Would recommend for families.

    Our family of five had a BLAST! The volcano hike was a challenge, but our youngest (7) made it. Crew was super encouraging. Hot springs were a hit, and the lunch was simple but yummy. Oia sunset was crowded but unforgettable. Highly recommend for adventurous families.
