Good to Know

  • Pack Layers for Winds

    Santorini's meltemi winds pick up afternoons; bring scarf and light jacket.

  • Book Private Transfers

    Use apps or hotel for 10-15 min rides to beaches; avoid donkeys.

  • Cable Car Peak Hours

    Avoid 4-7 PM rush; go early morning for quick rides.

  • Water and Sunscreen Always

    High UV even in spring/fall; carry reusable bottle, hotel refills free.

  • Tipping Customs

    Round up bills 5-10%; no need for high service charges.

  • Path Safety Tips

    Hold rails on steep steps; dusk walks risky for ankles.

  • Wine Tasting Etiquette

    Ask for dry whites; spit if driving later.

  • Market Bargaining

    Haggle politely 10-20% on souvenirs, not food.

  • Spa Booking Advance

    Reserve couples treatments 48 hours ahead for prime slots.
