A fabulous hike thanks to Sebastian, it’s definitely not a walk but it was made a lot easier with your guidance and good humour. As a group of 7 we all agreed that it was the highlight of our trip to Santorini. We highly recommend this hike, it’s not too hard if your reasonably fit. Your the knowledge of the local area, the history and all your tips on how to get around Santorini made our holiday memorable. We’ll catch you next time ! Sue & the Bavarian crew
Thank you so much! We did the hike yesterday, took us a bit over 2,5h and your gudie was super helpful. I had downloaded your video beforehand and we knew exactly where to go and where to get our refreshment and where to take pictures - like a virtual guided tour 😊
Thank you Sebastian. Your channel is extremely underrated and a must subscription for anyone who is planning to visit Santorini. It is so much more useful and informative than the professional “travel vloggers”.
OHHHH… SO happy to know about the bus stop to OIA, where you start walking along the highway. YOU provide us with IMPORTANT information for our planning! Thank you!
Thank you Sebastian, I cannot believe how easy was the hike after watching this video. Ur channel is amazing and very informative. We managed to do the hike ( my daughter and I) and I felt so confident about it after watching this video. We did it and it was GREAT. Thank you once again
Thank you so much for the helpful video! It made our hike today from Fira to Oia much easier and less stressful. My wife and I are grateful for this video and your other videos, which have made our stay in Santorini so much better!
6:17 Thank you for this detailed instructions. We really enjoyed this hike last week and as i am massively afraid of hights, the tipp, to turn right to an easier way on this one specific spot saved me from getting in trouble on this beautiful route. 🙏🏻 At the beginning of June it was about 23 degrees on the island and the hike at 2:00 p.m. was possible without any problems. In addition, there were still pleasantly few tourists there! 😊 Santorini ist one of the most beautiful island I‘ve been so far. I look forward to go back there some day. 😍
Sebastian we followed along with your video every step of the way. Your videos are epic and we saw many others using it as their guide. Thank you for making it and sharing it. You are wonderful!
Thank you again Sebastion, this was on my list and I just crossed it off. My vertigo would not make it through those cliff hangers. I love your channel! Coming next week.
This just put a big smile on my face. I stayed at Xenones Filotera in May which is around 5:45 in this video and I walked to fira and back many times using that same trail. Its really refreshed my memory. Thank You
I wish I had checked this video before our hike… but my husband and I made it without any problems. Santorini is gorgeous, also a great workout just waking around. We stayed in Firostefani. We just got home 2 days ago. Love your channel Sebastian. 🇬🇷🙏🏻🥰
Thank you Sebastian for this video! I did the hike on Monday and it was awesome! The view, the landscape and the feeling afterwards - WOW! I rewatched your video during the hike - if not, I would have lost track after ordering a smoothie 😅 This hike was my favorite event on the isle! Thank you also for your helpful videos about the public transport. Thanks to them I felt well prepared to drive by bus.
Thank you, Sabastian, for the fabulous guide through this hike. I feel as though I am actually on the trail. I am hoping to do it for real in 2023 when I visit Santorini.
Thank you Sebastian! We visited Santorini in June 2022 and used all your tips to get around. This video was a very nice reminder of our fantastic time in Santorini. I actually also did the Skaros rock hike during this hike while my family was waiting for me at that smoothie place :-) Thanks again!!! Pleasant memories relived :-)
Wow, Wow, wow. This is invaluable information. This video really put the "hike" into perspective for me. I was worried that I would not be able to enjoy much of the food in Greece. Clearly, I'm going to get one hell of a workout walking around for 4 days and especially on this hike. I can't wait for my trip in a few months. I look forward to seeing you in Athens in September 23' Sebastian as we just booked your Night Walking tour.
Hi good sir, I watched all your videos in preparation for a trip next year and your channel is extremely underrated, really amazing and organized information, you have a natural talent for this.
Great video! We just did this hike last week, it is off season now, not many people around, really enjoyed the walk! I feel winter is the best season to do this.
Another excellent video. We just did this hike a few days ago starting from Caldera’s Memories hotel and I think this video gives the most clear and helpful outline of the hike. This can certainly be challenging in some points with the loose, cobblestone and rocky trail. It would be too easy to twist an ankle on a lose rock if you are not paying attention on the downhills. The day we did it was super windy so hold onto your hats!! Once you get to the little all white church you can go up to the right behind the yellow building for some great photos of the church overlooking the caldera. It took us a while to finish the hike as we stopped for photos and resting a bit along the way. It took us 3 hours without the Fira and Imerovigli sections starting about halfway along, so unless you plan of walking past everything and not stopping at all it will take longer than 3 hours to do the whole thing in my opinion. Great stuff. Thanks Sebastian!!
ευχαριστώ Sebastian.. I was in Santorini this week (March) and hiking from Fira to Oia based on your video.. I took a rest at St Markos church with a great view of both side of santorini coast (referring to your video at around the 6th min) as well as the church at the top if 3rd hill... it was sunshine and very windy but I enjoy it. And as it is a low season, I was completely alone hiking from Fira to Oia..
Thanks Sebastian for the video. We enjoyed our hike thanks to your guidance in that video!!!! We also enjoyed our day tour and nite tour in Thera and Oía with you!
Hi Sebastian, just got back visiting Greece and want to thank you for all the wonderful videos put out there. Learned so much from them and it was useful in my trip feeling confident the entire trip. Did the hike and without your guidance step by step sure I’ve been lost.
Well done! This really helps me with my first trip to Greece. Staying in Imerovigli and your video and clear explanation with help me when we do this walk to Oia. Great job!
Very nice explanation! Thank you for that. We watched your guide yesterday and did the hike today. We always felt like we know where to go und could completely concentrate on the hike and the view!
Did it from Oia to Fira....so the other way around. Easier to catch the Busses..i think. Overall a beautiful hike good shoes and enough water highly recommend .
I just want to say thank you for this. Video was so helpful. Used it many times during the trek to make sure we were on the right route. Thanks so much Also my 5 year old managed the whole route no issues #proudparent
Can confirm that hike is no joke. Last time I stayed in Santorini it was at Kostas Villas in Oia (highly recommended by the way). Made it up the first big hill, and that was it for me 🙂. The sight of those two other big hills on the path was too much. Stunning views nonetheless. Next time will attempt to start from Imerovigli instead.
Hahah yeah starting from Oia, that first hill (= Mavro Vouno) is pretty intense. Doing it the other way around (Fira => Oia) is a bit more gentle. Good luck on your second try !
Seb ,your videos are great thank you just quick one for all the drink stop on the middl of the hike between Tira and Oia will be: CASH ONLY so be ready 😂😂😂
Really useful video. Well done again ! One question pls : is there 4G all the way ? Just in case we have a doubt and wish to watch your video during the hike. Thanks Sebi.
At the bus stop we were getting acclimated and hadn't gotten to the right side of the road and some locals screamed out "are you taking the bus?" and told is to go while also yelling and hailing the bus to stop. :)
Thank you for the answer Seb! We are still pondering after doing the 60% hike, 1) From the video 7:22 where you said you can stop the hike and go back by bus, how long is 40% remaining if we opt to keep walking to Oia? 1 hour? 30 min? 2) Is it worth the remaining hike given we will be in Oia at the first few days and that time is limited? Or you recommend to go all the way if we can? 3) What time do you recommend to start (end of Sep/early Oct) in the morning?? Because we also want to return back to Fira in time for cable car and walk around if have time (given time will be tight for us) 4) Is Skaros Rock worth it? How long extra do we need to allow hike as well (and then keep on going from Fira to Oia)? 1 hour? 2 hours? Thank you again!
1) 1 hour 2) If you're on a tight schedule, I wouldnt do it. You will already have seen gorgeous views, the remaining 40% wont be very different. 3) Start 5-6 hours before the moment you want to be back at the cable car. 4) No
You missed the best part! When I hike from Fira to Oia, the “reward” for the arduous journey is to walk down to the water down the steps with the donkeys to where everyone goes swimming. I find it’s an amazing way to cap off a 3 hour hike- to go swimming and jumping off the small island and then having an early dinner at that port at the bottom of the stairs. I don’t know all the names sorry!
Great detail video Seb! I am wondering if you decided to return after 40% hike and take the bus to Fira terminal (but have to go to Oia bus terminal first as you stated), then will you be charged €2 as 1 fare (despite not getting off the bus at Oia terminal waiting to depart for Fira terminal destination) or it will be counted as €4 as 2 fares?
Hey Sebastian, your videos have been a lifesaver in planning our upcoming trip to Santorini! We're thinking of doing the hike you suggested, but we're not sure if it's advisable in mid-/late November. Would you recommend it during this time of the year, and does the "starting 3 hours before sunset" rule still hold true? Thanks for your help, and keep up the great work!
Yes November is a GREAT time to hike in Greece ! Not too hot, not too cold either. If you wanna catch the sunset from the hill before Oia, then yes you should start 3h prior. But if you dont care about the sunset, start at whatever time you want.
@@GreeceExplained Thanks for your helpful response, Sebastian! We're excited to hear that November is a great time to hike in Greece. Your advice about the sunset hike is much appreciated. Your videos have been a huge help in planning our trip. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to seeing more amazing content from you!
Great video walkthrough! I will be staying in Imerovigli. Is it worth it to start from Fira, or would it be fine to start in Imerovigli? Also what would be the best way to get back to Imerovigli? Will I need to go through a bus in Fira? We will do a morning walk and go back in early afternoon. Thanks!
Hi Trip ! I'd start from Imerovigli if I were you, no need to go to Fira. On the way back, yes you'll have to switch buses in Fira. The Oia => Fira bus does NOT stop in Imerovigli. Enjoy ! :-)
Kalispera Sebastian! I didn't see anywhere in the comments below. At 7:28 what is that bus stop? I'm considering getting off there and hiking the remainng 40% to Oia. Unless you consider the first 60% is prettier?
Good question ! It's the "San Antonio Hotel" bus stop. Not sure which part is better. The 1st half is more about the white and blue houses. The 2d half is out in the wilderness, much more of a "hiking" vibe. I let you decide what you connect more to ! :-)
Hey Sebastian, you mentioned a bathroom at the Blue Note restaurant. I was wondering about bathrooms on the island. Are they everywhere? Are they available at all restaurants? Do you pay to use them? Thanks so much for all your help. I feel well prepared for a visit to Santorini.
Apparently there is also a place along the trail where you can order something to drink and have a dip in the pool there as well. Is that still the case? I believe I saw it in a video or on a website with pictures and instructions on the trail.
Thank you for your helpful videos! We are staying in Imerovigli. Is it worth it to hike from Imerovigli to fira one day and then imerovigli to oia another day to get the whole hike? Or is one better than the other?
Thanks for the video. I watched it, but obviously, I won't be watching it during my hike. Can you recommend an app to use during the hike (or some place that sells a physical map)?
Tourist shops sell maps of the island, but I'm not sure those will help you find your way for the hike. If I were you I'd download the video onto my phone, in order to be able to access it without internet.
Great video! Thank you! I am traveling with a 1 year and a 7 year old. We plan to hike Fira to Oia in the next few days and start at 8am. If we carry the 1 year old in a baby carrier, would you say the hike is safe for our group? 1 person is a bit nervous of heights, but seems you can avoid the “scarier” sections by selecting the easier path.

As a trail runner, I see no other option than doing it tomorrow! Thank you Sebastian for the really useful video!
Hahah waw !! Good luck !!
I had so many questions and doubts until I started watching your videos. Thank you!!

Thanks Sebastian for the video. We enjoyed our hike thanks to your guidance in that video!!!! We also enjoyed our day tour and nite tour in Thera and Oía with you!
Glad you enjoyed it guys ! Big hugs !
Thanks again! A very nice hike. A bit rocky it is. So good shoes are simply needed!
I did this hike today with my son. Thank you for your videos.
Hi Sebastian, just got back visiting Greece and want to thank you for all the wonderful videos put out there. Learned so much from them and it was useful in my trip feeling confident the entire trip. Did the hike and without your guidance step by step sure I’ve been lost.
My pleasure !
Well done! This really helps me with my first trip to Greece. Staying in Imerovigli and your video and clear explanation with help me when we do this walk to Oia. Great job!
Most useful videos for tourists. Thank you lot..Exactly in month we will be hiking from Firostefani to Oia..
Oh thats awesome ! Enjoy !!
Again, most helpful. Thx
Thank you so much for the great video, that helped me a lot in doing the trail.
Fantastic information again and brilliantly presented. Many thanks!
Thanks Sebi, I'll be arriving from Australia on Wednesday next week :)
Did this today and thoroughly enjoyed it - thank you.
Wonderful! Can't wait to make this hike, and appreciate the tips!
It's a great video..thank you brother for such informative video, we could do it smoothly due to this
You are the true MVP
Very nice explanation! Thank you for that. We watched your guide yesterday and did the hike today. We always felt like we know where to go und could completely concentrate on the hike and the view!

One question pls : is there 4G all the way ?
Just in case we have a doubt and wish to watch your video during the hike.
Thanks Sebi.
Good question ! Yes there is !
"Flip flaps" yea I have see that in all my trips., It's called first timers traveling out of their town

You'll be charged 1 fare only ! And you'll pay in Oia, not when you board.

Woow is a big hike , thank you for your videos, is there any bathrooms in the way ??
Only "Blue Note" which I show at 4:05.
Sebastien, what should you do if you’re staying at Imerovigli? Split the hike in 2 days ? Imerovigli - Fira, Imerovigli - Oia? Thanks a lot
Yup great idea !
Would google map be helpful for this hike just incase if anyone gets lost?

@@GreeceExplained Thanks!
Apparently there is also a place along the trail where you can order something to drink and have a dip in the pool there as well. Is that still the case? I believe I saw it in a video or on a website with pictures and instructions on the trail.
Never heard of that place, sorry ! For sure its not ON the trail coz i ve never seen it. Cant help you more than that, sorry :-)
Thank you for a great video. I'll be leaving from Oia and hiking to Fira. What is the landmark in Oia that us the trailhead?
Here is the trailhead in Oia : 36.462084864077056, 25.3859436368032
It's what you see at 10:36 in the video. Enjoy !
@@GreeceExplained Thank you!
We will be coming on a cruise later in the day so will have limited time. How long does this hike take?
3h - 3h30
Thank you for your helpful videos! We are staying in Imerovigli. Is it worth it to hike from Imerovigli to fira one day and then imerovigli to oia another day to get the whole hike? Or is one better than the other?

@@GreeceExplained Thank you
can this tour bi walked from oia to fira or it doesnt work ? could you lighten me Sebastian 😅
Yes you can but its more tiring
Question… where do you purchase the tickets to ride the bus at Oia bus terminal? That comes every 30 mins to Fira? Will that stop at Imerovigli?
You can find all the info on taking the bus in those vids :

What bus stop is the closest to Skaros Rock? Thank you. 🙂
Imerovigli
Great video! Thank you! I am traveling with a 1 year and a 7 year old. We plan to hike Fira to Oia in the next few days and start at 8am. If we carry the 1 year old in a baby carrier, would you say the hike is safe for our group? 1 person is a bit nervous of heights, but seems you can avoid the “scarier” sections by selecting the easier path.
