Since I took a trip to Santorini, I consider the island to be among the most gorgeous places in the world. Every new corner seems more stunning than the last and pictures will never ever have the ability to capture its mesmerizing environment. If you're still considering whether to add Santorini to your pail list, here's 7 reasons you need to check out the Greek island.

1. Due to the fact that of the sundown in Oia

Hands down, one of my favourite moments in Greece was being able to witness the Santorini sundown. It's the only sundown in the world I have Santorini tours prices actually seen that gets a round of applause once it subsides. Come down there early though (a minimum of half an hour) for an excellent area. The crowds can be a little bit of a problem and the last thing you want is to be running to find a spot, dodging pictures whilst simultaneously attempting to take your own prior to the sun vanishes (been there, done that).

If the crowds show too much, and you would choose someplace a little quieter, another sundown area is Imerovigli. Once again, it provides a gorgeous, uninterrupted view of the sundown.

However in all sincerity, you can't actually have a bad sundown in Santorini. It's kind of wonderful anywhere you are.

There are a few ways to get around the island: leasing a car, ATV, taxi or bus. However, taxis can get pricey and buses provide you less time versatility. Roads are mainly cobble-stoned, narrow and Grecian drivers are crazy (however exceptionally skilled), which leaves us with renting an ATV. Renting an ATV, likewise referred to as a quad bike, is the very best and most popular way to get around the island, specifically thanks to the steep hills and heat that make it a strenuous task walking from point A to B. Plus it's A Lot enjoyable, guarantee.

Depending on the season, size and type of your ATV it might cost anywhere from 25 to 40 euros for 24 hours. Plus around 8-10 euros each day for fuel, based on a 200cc ATV.

It's a fantastic and enjoyable method to see the island on your own terms and time. Definitely a must-do whilst in Santorini, just make sure to have a drivers license with you.

Santorini is not understood for its beaches, so do not anticipate the typical white sand & crystal clear water view that Santorini daily tours you usually relate to Greece. The beaches are volcanic, not white sand, so they're either red or black rocks, pebbles or grit, and get very hot on the feet. Nevertheless, this makes them distinct and some choose them to the normal white sand beach, that makes them well worth a Santorini daily tour visit. Here's a couple of I 'd advise.
